BACKGROUND: Adalimumab, a biological treatment targeting tumour necrosis factor a, might be useful in sciatica. This paper describes the challenges faced when developing a new treatment pathway for a randomised controlled trial of adalimumab for peop...

Background Identification of sciatica may assist timely management but can be challenging in clinical practice. Diagnostic models to identify sciatica have mainly been developed in secondary care settings with conflicting reference standard selection...

Novel approach to characterising individuals with low back-related leg pain: cluster identification with latent class analysis and 12-month follow-up. (2018)
Journal Article
Stynes, S., Konstantinou, K., Ogollah, R., Hay, E. M., & Dunn, K. M. (2018). Novel approach to characterising individuals with low back-related leg pain: cluster identification with latent class analysis and 12-month follow-up. PAIN, 159(4), https://doi.org/10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001147

Traditionally, low back-related leg pain (LBLP) is diagnosed clinically as referred leg pain or sciatica (nerve root involvement). However, within the spectrum of LBLP, we hypothesised that there may be other unrecognised patient subgroups. This stud...
