PMID: 37639521 Free Books & Documents. Review.
At 6 months, there were no longer significant between-group differences on any outcome measures. There was a general trend toward short-term improvement in SSS and physical activity that was not sustained over time; however, all groups maintained their improvements in walk …

WITHDRAWN: Spinal manipulative therapy for low-back pain.
Assendelft WJ, Morton SC, Yu EI, Suttorp MJ, Shekelle PG. Assendelft WJ, et al. Among authors: morton sc. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2013 Jan 31;2013(1):CD000447. doi: 10.1002/14651858.CD000447.pub3. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2013. PMID: 23440781 Free PMC article. Review.
Meta-regression models were developed for acute or chronic pain and short-term and long-term pain and function. For patients with acute low-back pain, spinal manipulative therapy was superior only to sham therapy (10-mm difference [95% CI, 2 to 17 mm] on a 100-mm vi …
