Effects of exercise on balance in patients with non-specific low back pain: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Eur J Phys Rehabil Med. 2022 01-Jun;():. 10.23736/S1973-9087.21.07293-212 studies including 521 patients with non-specific low back pain were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis comparing physical exercise therapies to control for the improvement of balance. Pooled outcomes of interest included the single leg standing test, center of pressure displacement, center of pressure area, anterior-posterior stability index, limits of stability, and the star excursion balance test. Results revealed significantly favourable single-leg test scores, center of pressure displacement, and star excursion balance test scores (dynamic balance) in the physical exercise group.
