“…Thirty‐eight studies, totaling 2172 participants, were included in the meta‐analysis about the longitudinal relationship between the change in spinal amplitude and the change in pain intensity (Alves et al, 2020; Anderson et al, 2013; Ansari et al, 2014; Bazzaz‐Yamchi et al, 2021; Beladev & Masharawi, 2011; Boucher et al, 2018; Christe et al, 2022; de Brito Macedo et al, 2019; Elnaggar et al, 1991; Ferguson, 1998; Garcia et al, 2013; George et al, 2006; Grosdent et al, 2023; Hrkać et al, 2022; Joshi et al, 2021; Kim et al, 2015; Kiran et al, 2017; Larivière et al, 2022; Lenoir dit Caron et al, 2022; Louw et al, 2015; Louw, Farrell, et al, 2017; Louw, Zimney, et al, 2017; Martin et al, 1986; Masharawi & Nadaf, 2013; McCracken et al, 2002; Mieritz et al, 2014; Nemcić et al, 2013; Nordstoga et al, 2019; Ozkaraoglu et al, 2020; Sakulsriprasert et al, 2011; Satpute et al, 2019; Shahvarpour et al, 2017; Silveira et al, 2021; Steele et al, 2013; Sturion et al, 2020; Takinacı et al, 2019; Taşpınar et al, 2023). The pooled coefficient was −0.25 [95% CI: −0.33 to −0.17] indicating that an increase in spinal amplitude was associated with a decrease in pain intensity (Figure 5).…”
