The course of low back pain from adolescence to adulthood: eight-year follow-up of 9600 twins.

abstract：:It has been argued that a clarification of the mechanical causes of low-back pain requires a knowledge of the states of stress and strain throughout the lumbo-sacral spine. Since a purely experimental approach cannot provide this information, analytical model studies, to supplement measurements, are called for. In the...
