A STUDY TO DETERMINE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ANTHROPOMETRIC MEASURES OF BODY SIZE AND RISK OF CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN – A CORRELATIONAL STUDY
Journal Title: Innoriginal: International Journal Of Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
This Study aims to compare the relationships of LBP with measures of body size and to analyse underlying mechanisms for the association between body size and risk of LBP. Materials & Methods: 100 sample, 50 samples with and without LBP, those willing to participate in the study were selected based on the inclusion criteria. Height and weight were measured with the participants wearing light clothes without shoes. Waist and hip circumferences were measured with an inch tape, with participants standing and arms hanging relaxed. Results: The four variables body weight, BMI, waist circumference and hip circumference all showed equally strong associations with LBP in women
