Introduction:
With low back pain (LBP), remodelling of the lumbar soft tissues involves both trunk muscles and neighbouring passive connective tissues. The aim of the present study was to compare three quantitative measures of these tissues, using ultrasound imaging (USI), among healthy controls and individuals with LBP. Methods: USI measures from 30 healthy subjects and 34 patients with non-acute LBP were compared between groups and sexes. The measures employed were (1) lumbar multifidus echogenicity (fatty/fibrosis infiltration) at three vertebral levels; (2) posterior layer thickness of the thoracolumbar fascia, and (3) thickness of the perimuscular tissues surrounding the external oblique, internal oblique and transversus abdominis (TrA). Results: USI measures of (1) multifidus echogenicity showed statistically significant changes between vertebral levels and sexes (females > males; p = 0.02); (2) differences in thoracolumbar fascia thickness approached statistical significance between groups (LBP > controls; p = 0.09) and sexes (females Discussion: The thinner perimuscular tissues surrounding the TrA in patients with LBP is a new finding, concurring with previous findings with regard to the lower activation of this deep muscle as well as more recent findings on other perimuscular tissue. Conclusion: Overall, USI measures were sensitive to different potential changes (pain status, sex, vertebral level), and this is useful in studying the remodelling of various soft tissues of the trunk. |
