Abstract
BACKGROUND Consensus on the various interventions for degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS) remains unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS The authors searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and major scientific websites until 01 November 2023, to screen eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving the treatment of DLS. The seven most common DLS interventions [nonsurgical (NS), decompression only (DO), decompression plus fusion without internal fixation (DF), decompression plus fusion with internal fixation (DFI), endoscopic decompression plus fusion (EDF), endoscopic decompression (ED), and circumferential fusion (360F)] were compared. The primary (pain and disability) and secondary (complications, reoperation rate, operation time, blood loss, length of hospital stay, and satisfaction) outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Data involving 3273 patients in 16 RCTs comparing the efficacy of different interventions for DLS were reported. In terms of improving patient pain and dysfunction, there was a significant difference between surgical and NS. EDF showed the greatest improvement in short-term and long-term dysfunction (probability, 7.1 and 21.0%). Moreover, EDF had a higher complication rate (probability 70.8%), lower reoperation rate (probability, 20.2%), and caused greater blood loss (probability, 82.5%) than other surgical interventions. Endoscopic surgery had the shortest hospitalization time (EDF: probability, 42.6%; ED: probability, 3.9%). DF and DFI had the highest satisfaction scores. CONCLUSIONS Despite the high complication rate of EDF, its advantages include improvement in pain, lower reoperation rate, and shorter hospitalization duration. Therefore, EDF may be a good option for patients with DLS as a less invasive surgical approach.

Exercise treatments for lumbar spinal stenosis: A systematic review and intervention component analysis of randomised controlled trials. Clin Rehabil 2024; 38:361-374. [PMID: 37715644 PMCID: PMC10829420 DOI: 10.1177/02692155231201048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/18/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the components used in exercise interventions for people with symptoms of neurogenic claudication due to lumbar spinal stenosis and identify components associated with successful interventions. DATA SOURCES Eligible papers published up to April 2023 from MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PEDro, CENTRAL, Web of Science, and trial registry websites. REVIEW METHODS Literature searches were performed by an Information Specialist. We searched for randomised trials evaluating exercise interventions for people with neurogenic claudication symptoms (the primary symptom of lumbar spinal stenosis). Two authors independently performed study selection, data extraction, and quality assessments using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool Version 2 and the TIDieR checklist for intervention reporting. Details of intervention components were extracted, tabulated, and synthesised using an intervention component analysis approach. RESULTS We found thirteen trials reporting 23 exercise interventions delivered to 1440 participants. These featured 60 different components. Most exercise interventions included supervision and flexion-based exercises. Balance exercises were rarely included. Exercise components featured more frequently in successful interventions included stretches, strength or trunk muscle exercises, fitness exercises, especially cycling, and psychologically informed approaches. Interpretation is limited by low study numbers and heterogeneity. No conclusions could be drawn about exercise supervision or dose. DISCUSSION Exercise interventions for people with neurogenic claudication typically feature multiple components. Common features such as supervision, lumbar flexion, and aerobic fitness exercises and also less common features such as stretches, strengthening exercises, and psychologically informed approaches warrant consideration for inclusion when designing and optimising exercise interventions for people with lumbar spinal stenosis.

Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2024; 117:105173. [PMID: 37713935 DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2023.105173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fear of falling (FOF) is common among older adults. Currently, physical exercise, cognitive intervention, and combined physical and cognitive intervention have been proven to be effective interventions. However, whether combined interventions can provide additional benefits than single interventions remains unclear. Thus, the systematic and meta-analysis was conducted to explore the immediate and retention effects of combined physical and cognitive interventions, in comparison with a single intervention. MATERIALS AND METHODS Randomized controlled trials of combined interventions on FOF in older adults were searched using Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, SCOPUS, CINAHL, and PsycINFO from inception to March 20, 2023. The risk of bias in included studies was evaluated using the Cochrane Collaboration Risk of Bias tool. Two independent researchers extracted the data using predetermined criteria. RESULTS 31 studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. For the immediate post-intervention effect, the combined intervention was more effective than the blank/placebo/conventional intervention and the single cognitive intervention, while no additional effect was observed compared with the single physical intervention. Moreover, no additional follow-up retention effects were found when comparing the combined intervention with the single intervention. CONCLUSIONS Combined interventions had positive immediate effects on FOF in older adults, compared with single cognitive intervention, while combined interventions had a similar effect as a single physical intervention. More well-designed studies are required to explore the additional benefits of combined interventions compared with a single intervention and to investigate the follow-up effects of combined interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Globally, 20-25% of people will experience chronic pain in their lifetime. Dance is a physical activity with psychosocial benefits which may positively impact pain. This review aimed to investigate the effect of dance interventions on the experience of pain, by quantitative measures and qualitative themes. METHODS Seven major databases were searched from inception to January 2021. Two independent reviewers screened articles at each stage. Qualitative and quantitative studies were included if the dance interventions lasted over 6 weeks, participants reported pain longer than 3 months, and pain was an outcome of the study. All articles were critically appraised using appropriate Joanna Briggs Institute tools and data were collated using results-based convergent synthesis. RESULTS From 23,628 articles 34 full papers were included, with a total of 1254 participants (75.2% female). Studies predominantly investigated individuals with Fibromyalgia (26%) and generalised chronic pain (14%), with aerobic dance (20.7%) and Biodanza (20.7%) the most common dance genres investigated. Overall, 74% of studies noted either reduced pain through quantitative pain measures or qualitative themes of improved pain experience (88% for chronic primary pain and 80% for chronic secondary musculoskeletal pain). DISCUSSION There were positive effects of dance on chronic primary and secondary musculoskeletal pain across diverse populations. A variety of study designs and interventions noted improved pain measures and themes around pain coping and acceptance, with all dance therapies showing improvements, particularly when performed for 60-150 minutes duration weekly. Dance should be considered as an effective adjunct in the management of chronic pain.

Abstract
Background The effect of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and peripheral vascular disease (PVD), which occurs with similar degenerative conditions, when seen together, has not been studied. The aim of this study is to examine and compare the relationship between pain, balance, disability, fear of falling, and kinesiophobia in LSS patients with intermittent vascular claudication (IVC). Methods Seventy-two patients diagnosed with LSS using magnetic resonance imaging participated in this study. Thirty-five patients with IVC symptoms and showing vascular lesions by lower extremity venous and arterial Doppler ultrasonography imaging were included in the IVC-LSS group. The pain, static balance, dynamic balance, disability, fear of falling, and kinesiophobia were evaluated using the numeric rating scale, single leg stance test, Time Up and Go (TUG), the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Fall Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I), and Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), respectively. Results Age and female sex were found to be higher in the IVC-LSS group (P = 0.024; P = 0.012). The IVC-LSS group had a shorter single leg stance time and TUG test duration, pain intensity, ODI, FES-I, and TSK scores were higher than patients with LSS (P = 0.001). Pain, fear of falling, and kinesiophobia were moderately correlated with disability in the IVC-LSS group. No relationship was found between pain and dynamic balance. Also, the pain was not related to kinesiophobia. Conclusions The findings indicated that IVC causes loss of balance and an increase in pain, disability, fear of falling, and kinesophobia in patients with LSS.
