“…Postural changes are disorders that affect children and adolescents (2) and have a 70% to 80% prevalence in the adult population, which undermine the social and professional performance, generating high inancial costs (3,4). Found in the anteroposterior planes, these changes include scoliosis, dorsal kyphosis and lumbar lordosis (1).…”

Postural changes and pain in the spine of children and adolescents of school age are influenced by the permanent incorrect sitting position, misuse of furniture and weight of the backpack. The aim of this study was to verify postural changes and pain in the academic performance of elementary school students. It was a cross-sectional study, with a descriptive and analytical approach. The subjects were 83 elementary students, aged 8 to 12 years, of Kindergarten and Elementary Education at Paulo Sarasate Municipal School, Ceará. It was performed from March to June 2008. In the physical examination it was used an evaluation form, based on Global Postural reeducation, by Souchard method, which included the variables: compromised anterior, posterior, superior shoulder muscle chains and pain and, in academic performance, a semi-structured questionnaire with the variables: behavior, attendance and performance. The data was stored in the Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 18.0. In the descriptive analysis, absolute and relative frequencies were used, and in the inferential analysis, the following tests were applied: Mann-Whitney, to verify the existence of significant differences in changes in groups A and B, at a significance level of 5%, and the F statistical test, for comparing postural changes and pain, in the three grades. Results: it was noted that the majority of the students presented postural changes, such as forward head, lifted shoulders, dorsal hyperkyphosis and pain, which predominantly occurred in the anterior chain, when compared with the posterior and superior chains. These changes in both groups were statistically significant only in subjects of the fifth grade with satisfactory academic performance and behavior. It was concluded that there was no association between postural changes and school performance, although it was influenced by pain.

Radiofrequency Denervation for Facet Syndrome: A Meta-Analysis of Treatment Outcomes

et al. 2016

Objective The aim of this study was to carry out a systematic literature review on the facet syndrome and a meta-analysis of the outcomes of radiofrequency denervation in patients presenting with the syndrome. Methods A systematic literature review was performed based on 52 articles published from 1999 to 2013, available at Bireme, Scielo, PubMed, and MEDLINE databases. The meta-analysis comprises eight case-control studies, found during the literature review, totaling 440 patients. The heterogeneity of the collected data was assessed using the chi-square test (χ 2 ). To estimate the effect of the proposed correlation, we combined the values of each study with the Mantel-Haensze test, which has fixed effects, using the BioEstat 5.0 software. Results The selected studies were statistically relevant when grouped, determining an effect in favor of the use of facet denervation as a technique capable of relieving chronic low back pain in pre-determined periods of follow-up (OR ¼ 1.251; 95% CI: 1.028-1.524). Conclusion The results of the systematic literature review and meta-analysis herein presented may be used for the creation of diagnosis and management protocols for facet syndrome, and can also attract the interest of other researchers to conduct further studies on the theme.
