Several reviews of studies on back pain were published yesterday. Health Behavior News Service has written up a few of them:
No clear evidence that antidepressants assist in the management of chronic low back pain
NSAIDs are effective for short-term relief of low-back pain
Intensive education can help patients with acute low-back pain
Having lower back pain is frustrating. When it's at its peak, it can make it difficult to live daily life.
As usual, the news from Tuesday was quite interesting:
Disparities among patients with extremity soft-tissue sarcomas
Overweight patients with diabetes appear more likely to achieve remission with weight-loss surgery
Alendronate can help prevent bone fractures in many postmenopausal women
