Abstract

Aim: Our objective, is to investigate the relationship between lumbar paraspinal muscles lipoatrophy and low back pain. Materials and methods: 74 patients with low back pain and 17 healthy volunteers were included in this crosssectional study. The patients were grouped according to the duration of pain; group I≤ 4 weeks, group II: 4-12 weeks and group III>12 weeks of duration of pain. Their lumbar MR images were visually analyzed for signs of lumbar paraspinal muscles atrophy. The fat content was graded semiquantitatively (grade 0-4) for each muscle as following multifidus, longissimus and psoas muscles. The relationship between fat content and duration of low back pain was assessed and compared with asymptomatic volunteers. Student’s t test, Spearman correlation analysis and Kruskal Wallis ANOVA tests were used in the statistical analysis. Results: There were significant correlations between multifidus, longissimus and psoas muscles atrophy and the duration of the low back pain (r=0.311, p=0.007 for psoas; r=0.382, p=0.001 for multifidus and r=0.398, p

Özet

Amaç: Bel ağrısı ile lomber paraspinal kasların lipoatrofisi arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu kesitsel çalışmaya, bel ağrısı bulunan 74 hasta ve 17 sağlıklı gönüllü katıldı. Bel ağrılı olgular, ağrı süresine göre gruplandırıldı. Grup I≤ 4 hafta, grup II= 4-12 hafta grup III, >12 hafta ağrısı olan hastalarda oluştu. Bu hastaların lomber manyetik rezonans (MR) görüntüleri lomber paraspinal kasların atrofi bulguları bakımından değerlendirildi. Her bir kas için yağ içeriği, yarı-kantikatif (evre 0-4) olarak derecelendirildi. Ağrının süresi ile yağ içerikleri arasındaki ilişki asemptomatik gönüllüler ile karşılaştırıldı. Verilerin istatistiksel analizinde, bağımsız gruplarda t testi, Spearman korelasyon analizi ve Kruskal Wallis ANOVA testleri kullanıldı. Bulgular: Multifidus, longissimus ve psoas kaslarında lipoatrofi ile bel ağrısı süresi arasında anlamlı ilişki saptandı (multifidus kasında r=0.382, p=0.001; longissimus kasında r=0.398, p
