Mapping Comorbidities in Patients With Low Back Pain—A Systematic Review
Comorbidities are highly prevalent in adults with LBP. The included studies varied considerably in comorbidity assessment, reporting, and study populations, where sociodemographic factors like sex, age, marital status, education, and employment likely influenced comorbidity prevalence and types. Findings emphasize the need for standardized assessment methods and tailored physiotherapy approaches to address the diverse needs of this population.
