Fatty infiltration of the erector spinae at the upper lumbar spine could be a landmark for low back pain

open access: yesPain Practice, 2023
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), Modic changes, and fatty infiltration in the paraspinal muscles are possible causes of low back pain (LBP). Multifidus has been the most commonly blamed paraspinal muscle in the etiology of LBP.

Active exoskeleton reduces erector spinae muscle activity during lifting

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are a widespread problem, often regarding the lumbar region. Exoskeletons designed to support the lower back could be used in physically demanding professions with the intention of reducing the strain on the musculoskeletal system, e.g., by lowering task-related muscle activation.
