A systematic review of randomized controlled trials. ⋯ There is strong evidence that insoles are not effective for the prevention of back pain. The current evidence on insoles as treatment for low back pain does not allow any conclusions.

Review Meta Analysis
Spinal mechanical load as a risk factor for low back pain: a systematic review of prospective cohort studies.
Systematic review. ⋯ We found strong evidence that leisure time sport or exercises, sitting, and prolonged standing/walking are not associated with LBP. Evidence for associations in leisure time activities (e.g., do-it-yourself home repair, gardening), whole-body vibration, nursing tasks, heavy physical work, and working with ones trunk in a bent and/or twisted position and LBP was conflicting. We found no studies, thus no evidence, for an association between sleeping or sporting on a professional level and LBP.

Review Case Reports
Acquired hemophilia a in a patient with lumbar disc herniation: a case report and review of the literature.
To summarize the clinical manifestations and treatment of acquired hemophilia A in a patient with lumbar disc herniation. ⋯ Surgical operation may be a factor contributing to acquired hemophilia A, which, to our knowledge, has not been reported in the literature. Diagnosis of acquired hemophilia requires clinical acumen and any patient who presents with bleeding and a prolonged activated partial-thromboplastin time should be considered. Initial hemodynamic stabilization followed by treatment with immunosuppressive therapy is straightforward and highly successful.
