Chronic low back pain (LBP) impairs balance control due to deficits in sensory integration, yet limited research examines postural sway under varying visual conditions. This study assessed the effects of input on stability using normalized index, excursions, and contralateral toe-touch durations during repeated one-leg standing tasks. Thirty-two adults with LBP 40 subjects performed dominant limb a force plate. Outcome measures included Oswestry disability analog scale, excursions (anteroposterior [AP], mediolateral [ML]), duration. The group showed significant interaction for index conditions (F = 4.95, p 0.03) reduced second trial eyes-open condition (t 1.71, 0.04). Sway increased AP direction first −2.43, 0.01) ML −2.09, 0.02) −1.84, directions third trial. Contralateral duration −2.06, 0.02). Individuals exhibited deficits, particularly conditions, relying compensatory strategies. Optimizing neuromuscular integration may improve stability.

Objective: To investigate the influence of sleep quality and associated factors on balance control in individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP). Methods: 85 participants (mean age 33.2 ± 12.5 years) CLBP were recruited. Physical emotional well-beings evaluated using a battery questionnaires. Sleep over last month was assessed Pittsburgh Quality Index (PSQI). Participants dichotomized into good (GSQ) poor (PSQ) groups if their PSQI scores ≤ 5 > 5, respectively. Balance measured one-leg stance eyes closed Y-balance test. Results: The GSQ group included 37 participants, while PSQ comprised 48 participants. After controlling for confounds (including gender, age, disability, anxiety, depression, fear avoidance beliefs), displayed significantly poorer performance lower normalized posteromedial, posterolateral, composite test compared GSQ. Additionally, accounted 16.9%-24.9% variance control, explained an additional 5.2%-13.2% variance. higher levels physical disability anxiety control. Conclusions: Individuals concurrent exhibit worse than those alone. Future studies should whether improving quality, can enhance CLBP.
