BACKGROUND: Pre-diabetes, characterized by elevated glycemic indices, poses a high risk of diabetes development, and is increasingly linked to non-specific low back pain. While mechanisms remain incompletely understood, metabolic, inflammatory, and neurological factors are implicated. Dietary interventions, including low-glycemic and anti-inflammatory diets, alongside weight management, may improve outcomes in this population.
OBJECTIVES: In this non-randomized controlled trial, we aim to evaluate the influence of decreasing HbA1c levels on reducing chronic non-specific low back pain in pre-diabetic, non-obese individuals, as well as emphasizing the importance of such a study in supporting the literature.
METHODS: A non-randomized controlled single-blind clinical trial was conducted among 82 participants with chronic non-specific low back pain and pre-diabetes at an outpatient clinic in Baghdad from the 30th of January to the 22nd of September. The intervention methods aimed at reducing HbA1c levels to assess the reduction impact on alleviating chronic non-specific low back pain included dietary adjustments, sleep optimization, and correction of vitamins and minerals deficiencies. The follow-up process was conducted individually for each participant, with a monthly assessment over a period of six months.
RESULTS: At 12 weeks a significant decrease in chronic non-specific low back pain severity was observed in patients with lower HbA1C levels yielding a P-value of .021. Similarly, at 24 weeks there was a decline in the number of patients who reported chronic non-specific low back pain, and the association to lower HbA1C levels was significant with a p-value of .005.
CONCLUSION: This study suggests the presence of a statistically significant association between reduction of HbA1C levels and ensuing improvement in chronic non-specific low back pain symptoms in non-obese prediabetic patients.
