Back Pain in Relation to Pregnancy: A 6‐Year Follow‐Up
TLDR

Prognosis of women with pelvic pain during pregnancy: a long‐term follow‐up study

Prepregnancy back pain, severity of complaints, and number of walking deficiencies at primary referral as well as duration of labor showed a significant relation with symptoms.
Pregnancy‐related pelvic girdle pain in the Netherlands
TLDR
Women reporting pelvic girdle pain are less mobile than women without pain or women with back pain only, and more frequently have to use a wheelchair or crutches, and attention needs to be given to psychosocial factors, in particular depressive symptoms.
Pelvic girdle pain after childbirth: the impact of mode of delivery.
TLDR
The finding suggests that, during postpartum period, LBP before pregnancy, parity, active straight leg raise test score ≥ 4, bilateral P4 test, and sitting position during breast-feeding were significantly associated with increased risk of PGP in both vaginal and caesarean modes of deliveries, but further studies are needed for definitive conclusions.
Association Between Excessive Weight Gain During Pregnancy and Persistent Low Back and Pelvic Pain After Delivery.
TLDR
This study showed that excessive weight gain during pregnancy is one of the risk factors of persistent LBPP, and Appropriate weight control during pregnancy could help prevent persistentLBPP after delivery.
Pelvic girdle pain, clinical tests and disability in late pregnancy.
Back pain in women post-partum is not a unitary concept.
TLDR
Based on the clinical tests, women with back pain post- partum can be separated into groups with different pain localizations and the measuring of the spinal sagittal configuration and mobility did not help to further identify or classify post-partum back pain.
Pregnancy Related Pelvic Girdle Pain and Low Back Pain in an Iranian Population
TLDR
In this study, PGP was almost 2 times more common than LBP, suggesting that this symptom is a significant health problem in Iranian pregnant women, and needs more attention by Iranian health professionals and researchers.

TLDR
An individually designed program reduced sick leave during pregnancy using a non-elastic sacro-illac belt and good physical fitness reduced the risk of back pain in a subsequent pregnency.
Previous Back Pain and Risk of Developing Back Pain in a Future Pregnancy
TLDR
The point prevalence of back pain in weeks 12, 24, 30, and 36 was three times higher in the group who had had back pain before pregnancy indicating that pain was not only more prevalent but also lasted longer in that group.
Prevalence of Back Pain in Pregnancy
TLDR
Back problems before pregnancy increased the risk of back pain, as did young age, multiparity, and several physical and psychological work factors.
The Relationship of Low‐Back Pain to Pregnancy and Gynecologic Factors
TLDR
A higher number of abortions was found to be directly associated to LBP in 38− to 49-year-old women and those 50 to 64 years of age, and two variables were directly associated with LBP viz., aHigher number of live births and a higher frequency of menopausal symptoms.

The Sacroiliac Joint in Chronic Low Back Pain

Recognizing specific characteristics of nonspecific low back pain.
A retrospective review of 1293 cases of low back pain treated over a 12-year period revealed that sacroiliac joint syndrome and posterior joint syndromes were the most common referred-pain syndromes,…
Backache in pregnancy.
TLDR
Analysis of aggravating and relieving factors indicates some differences between backache in the pregnant and 'mechanical' back pain in the non-pregnant, but not enough to provide clear evidence of any protective effect of this attendance.

The Reliability of Selected Pain Provocation Tests for Sacroiliac Joint Pathology
TLDR
Five of seven tests employed in this study were reliable, the other two were potentially reliable, and these tests may be used to detect a sacroiliac source of low back pain, although sensitivity and specificity studies are needed to determine their diagnostic power.
