          ABSTRACT Introduction: Low back pain is one of the most frequently referred symptoms in medical consultation, being a limiting factor in activities of daily living and work activity. New therapies, such as cupping, seem to bring promising results in the management of low back pain. Objective: To evaluate the scientific evidence on the effects of the application of cupping therapy in patients with low back pain. Material and Methods: A literature search was carried out in PubMed, Medline, Cinhal, Scopus, Web of Science, PEDro and Cochrane with the terms “Cupping Therapy” and “Low Back Pain” and the keyword “Cupping Therapy”. Results: 10 articles using cupping therapy for the treatment of low back pain were included, focusing on pain and disability scales and obtaining significant beneficial results. Conclusion: Cupping therapy appears to reduce pain and disability in patients with low back pain.

          Reliability of the PEDro scale for rating quality of randomized controlled trials.

          Christopher Maher, Catherine Sherrington, Robert D. Herbert … (2003)
          Assessment of the quality of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) is common practice in systematic reviews. However, the reliability of data obtained with most quality assessment scales has not been established. This report describes 2 studies designed to investigate the reliability of data obtained with the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale developed to rate the quality of RCTs evaluating physical therapist interventions. In the first study, 11 raters independently rated 25 RCTs randomly selected from the PEDro database. In the second study, 2 raters rated 120 RCTs randomly selected from the PEDro database, and disagreements were resolved by a third rater; this generated a set of individual rater and consensus ratings. The process was repeated by independent raters to create a second set of individual and consensus ratings. Reliability of ratings of PEDro scale items was calculated using multirater kappas, and reliability of the total (summed) score was calculated using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC [1,1]). The kappa value for each of the 11 items ranged from.36 to.80 for individual assessors and from.50 to.79 for consensus ratings generated by groups of 2 or 3 raters. The ICC for the total score was.56 (95% confidence interval=.47-.65) for ratings by individuals, and the ICC for consensus ratings was.68 (95% confidence interval=.57-.76). The reliability of ratings of PEDro scale items varied from "fair" to "substantial," and the reliability of the total PEDro score was "fair" to "good."

              A systematic review of the global prevalence of low back pain.

              Damian Hoy, Christopher Bain, Gail Williams … (2012)
              To perform a systematic review of the global prevalence of low back pain, and to examine the influence that case definition, prevalence period, and other variables have on prevalence. We conducted a new systematic review of the global prevalence of low back pain that included general population studies published between 1980 and 2009. A total of 165 studies from 54 countries were identified. Of these, 64% had been published since the last comparable review. Low back pain was shown to be a major problem throughout the world, with the highest prevalence among female individuals and those aged 40-80 years. After adjusting for methodologic variation, the mean ± SEM point prevalence was estimated to be 11.9 ± 2.0%, and the 1-month prevalence was estimated to be 23.2 ± 2.9%. As the population ages, the global number of individuals with low back pain is likely to increase substantially over the coming decades. Investigators are encouraged to adopt recent recommendations for a standard definition of low back pain and to consult a recently developed tool for assessing the risk of bias of prevalence studies.
