Pilates exercise or stationary cycling for chronic nonspecific low back pain: does it matter?
Inferential statistics suggest greater improvements at 8 weeks, but not 6 months, for the SEG.

If a patient with low back pain adheres to either specific trunk exercises or stationary cycling, it is reasonable to think that similar improvements will be achieved.
This study has indicated an association between epigenetic status and socio-economic status (SES). This relationship has direct implications for population health and is reflected in further associations between global DNA methylation content and emerging biomarkers of CVD.
