Lifestyle factors such as smoking, obesity, and level of physical activity predict low back pain (LBP) and sciatica. The authors investigated whether participating in sports, smoking, and being overweight or obese at 14 years of age predicted hospitalizations due to LBP or sciatica in adulthood. In
A prospective study was done to determine the effect of obesity on the surgical results in patients with intractable sciatica. One hundred ten patients entered the study over an 8-month period. Five patients (1 obese) were excluded. Seventeen patients were included in the obese group. The two
The aim of this study was to assess the associations of overweight and obesity with lumbar radicular pain and sciatica using a meta-analysis. We searched the PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases from 1966 to July 2013. We performed a random-effects meta-analysis and assessed
Objectives: Chronic sciatica is a common condition. According to Traditional Persian Medicine and recent studies, calorie reduction is thought to be helpful for this condition. The purpose of this work is to evaluate a short-term low-calorie diet (LCD) for ameliorating chronic sciatica
Lumbar radicular pain is a fairly common health problem, yet its risk factors are far from clear. There are no published systematic reviews on associations between cardiovascular or lifestyle risk factors and lumbar radicular pain or sciatica. The aim of this systematic literature review was to
OBJECTIVE
To study the known or suspected risk factors for sciatica: Tallness, overweight, smoking, leisure-time physical exercise, self-reported health and occupation, and how they predict hospitalizations due to sciatica. Only a few cohort studies have previously focused on the risk factors for
METHODS
Cross-sectional study in a subcohort of the 1986 Northern Finland Birth Cohort (n = 1987).
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the role of environmental factors and LBP history in sciatica symptoms among Finnish young adults.
BACKGROUND
History of low back pain (LBP), smoking, and male sex are
Sciatica (a term used synonymously with lumbar radiculopathy) is usually caused by lumbar disc herniation or lumbar spinal stenosis. Mechanical compression of nerve roots is a predominant factor, and decompression the surgical goal. Emphasis should be placed on clinical identification of the nerve
METHODS
Two-year, prospective cohort data collected for the Japan epidemiological research of Occupation-related Back pain study were used for the analysis.
OBJECTIVE
To identify potential risk factors for the development of new-onset sciatica in initially symptom-free Japanese workers with no
METHODS
A magnetic resonance imaging follow-up study of lumbar arteries among patients with sciatica with chronic Chlamydia pneumoniae infection.
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether chronic infection causes occlusion of lumbar arteries.
BACKGROUND
C. pneumoniae infection is associated with coronary heart
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of the general strenuousness of work and various physical exposures on the risk of hospitalization for sciatica. The study population consisted of Finns aged 30 to 59 who had participated in a national health examination survey in 1978-80 (N = 3891).
So far, eight prospective studies and 50 cross-sectional or retrospective studies have focused on risk factors for low back syndromes. Half of these have been published during the 1980s. Hard physical work and, in particular, frequent lifting and postural stress are likely to result in disc
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of lifestyle risk factors on the risk of hospitalization for sciatica and to determine whether overweight or obesity modifies the effect of leisure-time physical activity on hospitalization for sciatica.
We included 4 Finnish prospective cohort
METHODS
Cross-sectional.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the interaction between the COL9A3 gene polymorphism and persistent obesity in relation to lumbar disc degeneration.
BACKGROUND
Obesity has been suggested to be a risk factor for disc degeneration. There is some indication for an association between
As an extremely common symptom and major source of lost productivity, mechanical sciatica places a heavy burden on public health.
METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed 1092 medical records to determine the epidemiological, clinical, imaging study, and therapeutic characteristics of mechanical
