Age-Dependent Differences of Paraspinal Muscle Endurance and Morphology in Chinese Community Population Without Chronic Low Back Pain

Abstract

Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Objectives: Our aim was to describe age-dependent changes of lumbar paraspinal muscle endurance and morphology in Chinese healthy population. We also explored the relationship between paraspinals endurance and morphology. Methods: A total of 181 participants from Chinese community population without chronic low back pain were included. The participants were divided into three groups: young (20-39 years old, n = 29), middle (40-59 years old, n = 93), and elderly (≥ 60 years old, n = 59). The Ito test was performed to evaluate the isometric endurance of paraspinal muscles. The total cross-sectional area (TCSA) and fat infiltration (FI) of multifidus (MF) and erector spinae (ES) were measured at L1-L5 levels on magnetic resonance imaging. Physical activity level was evaluated using the physical activity index and comorbidities were assessed by the modified 5-item frailty index. Results: The elderly group had a shorter performance time of endurance test than the young group and middle-aged group. Correlation analysis showed that age had a significant correlation with endurance test, the average MF TCSA, MF FI, ES TCSA and ES FI of L1-5. In addition, PAI had a significant correlation with endurance test and MF FI. In multiple linear regression analysis, paraspinals endurance was associated with MF FI, ES FI, physical activity level and comorbidities. Conclusion: Age-related decreases in paraspinals endurance and TCSA, and an increase in FI were revealed. Besides, paraspinal muscles FI, but not TCSA, was negatively associated with the endurance of paraspinals.
