Abstract
The purpose of this review was to study domestic and foreign studies and update knowledge about the frequency of the low back pain (LBP) occurrence among adults. The available full-text English and Russian publications from the following databases were analyzed: PubMed, Springer, Wiley Online Library, Taylor & Francis Online, US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, ScienceDirect and eLIBRARY.RU. The search for publications was carried out by the following keywords and their combinations: low back pain; back pain; discogenic pain; neuropathic pain; lumbodynia; sacralgia; intervertebral discs pathology. The search depth is 5 years (from 2016 to 2021). 2082 publications were analyzed, 132 of them corresponded to the purpose of this study, 21 of them were full-text publications. In total, 21 studies have been analyzed over the past 5 years. In the Russian Federation and abroad. The average LBP frequency ranged from 0.05% in Israel to 83% in Sweden. Such a large spread of indicators may be due to several objective reasons: differences in the design and methods of the study; heterogeneity of samples by age (adolescents, young, adults, middle-aged and elderly); only men taking part in the study; differences in social status (students, military personnel, athletes, working pensioners). In this regard, it impossible to systematize the results of the studies analyzed by us. Our thematic review shows that LBP in modern neurology remains one of the most common pathology, despite the improvement of health care system, preventive and predictive medicine.
