简要总结
This study aims to determine whether Pilates-based stability or eccentric training is more effective for patients with multiple sclerosis(MS) with chronic non-specific low back pain(NSLBP).
详细描述
Thirty adult patients with multiple sclerosis with chronic NSLBP verified diagnosis of MS by a specialized neurologist will be questioned and screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Patients were randomly allocated to one of two groups: (Pilates or Eccentric). Every individual in both groups will be examined before and after the 6-week treatment program.
The handheld dynamometer assessed isometric trunk flexion and extension strength Pain intensity by casual analog scale (VAS). The Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS) evaluates static and dynamic sitting balance and trunk coordination in a seated position.

结局指标
主要结局
pain intensity
时间窗: At baseline and after 6 week
VAS for measuring pain severity
Function
时间窗: At baseline and after 6 week
The Trunk impairment scale (TIS) The static subscale investigates: (1) the ability of the subject to maintain a sitting position with feet supported; (2) the ability to maintain a sitting position while the legs are passively crossed, and (3) the ability to maintain a sitting position when the subject crosses the legs actively. The dynamic subscale contains items on lateral flexion of the trunk and unilateral lifting of the hip. To assess the coordination of the trunk, the subject is asked to rotate the upper or lower part of his or her trunk 6 times, initiating the movements either from the shoulder girdle or from the pelvic girdle, respectively. For each item, a 2-, 3- or 4- point ordinal scale is used. On the static and dynamic sitting balance and coordination subscales the maximal scores that can be attained are 7, 10 and 6 points. Therefore, TIS ranges between 0 for a minimal performance to 23 for a perfect performance.
次要结局
- back muscle strength(At baseline and after 6 week)
