Are risk factors for the first episode of low back pain in children infrequently validated across samples and conditions : a systematic review?
Inconsistency in definitions of low back pain, pre-defined recall periods, and methods used to collect and analyse data limit conclusions that can be drawn about factors that identify children at risk of developing low back pain. As no risk factor has been validated in independent investigation, we have no certainty that any factor places children at risk of developing low back pain.
