简要总结
The aim of this study was to determine the association between low back pain and the strength of knee flexor and extensor muscles in Lithuanian National Defence Volunteer Forces personnel.
详细描述
This cross-sectional study investigated the association between low back pain (LBP) and the hamstring-to-quadriceps (H/Q) strength ratio in personnel of the Lithuanian National Defence Volunteer Forces. Active-duty volunteers with and without LBP underwent isokinetic testing of knee flexor and extensor muscle strength using a Biodex System 4 Pro dynamometer at angular velocities of 60°/s and 120°/s. Hamstring strength, quadriceps strength, H/Q ratios, and inter-limb asymmetries were assessed to explore potential associations with low back pain in this military population.
