The effect of gender
on proprioception
accuracy in mechanical
low back pain
Dina Mohamed Ali Al Hamaky
Cairo University, Egypt
Mechanical low back pain is
one of the most common
disorders affecting the young
age population. The affection
of proprioception can lead to
worsening of the back pain.
The effect of gender on the
proprioception accuracy in
the back did not have enough
attention. The purpose was
to know the difference of
proprioception accuracy in the
back region between males
and females who suffer from
mechanical low back pain.
in case of proofing, there is a
difference in proprioceptive
accuracy between them, a
new standard of physiotherapy
programs suiting every gender
would be provided for their
rehabilitation. A representative
sample of one hundred seven
patients was included and
subdivided to Group A (17
females and 36 males) with
mechanical low back pain.
The mean ± SD age, weight,
height were 22.56±6.2years,
74.28±13.410kg,
172.92±8.546cm and Group
B(11 females and 43 males)
who were normal individuals.
The mean ± SD age, weight,
height was 22.66±3.34years,
72.92±13.54kg,
174.01±7.73cm respectively.
Active repositioning error was
calculated 3 times the Biodex
Isokinetic Dynamometer.
Results revealed that there
was a significant increase in
active repositioning error
in females regarding males
who suffer from mechanical
low back pain in Group A as
(P=0.002) while there was no
significant difference in Active
repositioning error between
females and males in group B
(p=0.16). So it is recommended
to perform an intense
proprioceptive training for
young females regarding males
for rehabilitation of the back.
