ABSTRACT Background: With growing evidence of high prevalence in developing countries, LBP is no longer recognized as a disorder confined to high-income nations but is a major health problem globally. The functional limitations and consequent disability create a heavy economic burden on individuals and society. This study aimed to acupuncture therapy in reducing pain in patients with low back pain. Subjects and Method: A meta-analysis and systematic review was conducted by search published articles from PubMed, Google Schoolar, Mendeley, Hindawi, and Clinical key databases. Keywords used “acupuncture low back pain” OR “acupuncture chronic pain” AND “efficacy acupuncture” AND “chronic low back pain” AND “effect acupuncture for low back pain” AND “randomized controlled trial” AND “visual analogue scale”. The inclusion criteria were full text and using randomized controlled trial (RCT) study design. The articles were selected by PRISMA flow chart and the quantitative data were analyzed by Revman 5.3. Results: 7 studies were met criteria. This study showed that acupuncture therapy reduced pain in patients with low back pain (Mean Difference= -0.40; 95% CI= -0.80 to 0.01; p= 0.05) with heterogeneity I2= 83%. Conclusion: Acupuncture therapy reduces pain in patients with low back pain. Keywords: low back pain, acupuncture chronic low back pain, randomized controlled trial. Correspondence: Elisa Novitasari.

Abstract Objective Treating chronic low back pain (CLBP) with spine-focused interventions is common, potentially dangerous, and often ineffective. This preliminary trial tests the feasibility and efficacy of caring for CLBP in older adults as a geriatric syndrome in Aging Back Clinics (ABC). Design Randomized controlled trial. Setting Outpatient clinics of two VA Medical Centers. Subjects Fifty-five English-speaking veterans aged 60–89 with CLBP and no red flags for serious underlying illness, prior back surgery, dementia, impaired communication, or uncontrolled psychiatric illness. Methods Participants were randomized to ABC care or usual care (UC) and followed for six months. ABC care included 1) a structured history and physical examination to identify pain contributors, 2) structured participant education, 3) collaborative decision-making, and 4) care guided by condition-specific algorithms. Primary outcomes were low back pain severity (0–10 current and seven-day average/worst pain) and pain-related disability (Roland Morris). Secondary outcomes included the SF-12 and health care utilization. Results ABC participants experienced significantly greater reduction in seven-day average (–1.22 points, P = 0.023) and worst pain (–1.70 points, P = 0.003) and SF-12 interference with social activities (50.0 vs 11.5%, P = 0.0030) at six months. ABC participants were less likely to take muscle relaxants (16.7 vs 42.3%, P = 0.0481). Descriptively, UC participants were more likely to experience pain-related emergency room visits (45.8% vs 30.8%) and to be exposed to non-COX2 nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (73.1% vs 54.2%). Conclusions These preliminary data suggest that ABC care for older veterans with CLBP is feasible and may reduce pain and exposure to other potential morbidity.
