Low Back Pain and Hamstring-to-Quadriceps Strength Ratio in Military Personnel (LBP-H/Q ratio)

18. maj 2026 opdateret af: Vilma Dudoniene, Lithuanian Sports University

Association Between Low Back Pain and Hamstring-to-Quadriceps Strength Ratio in Lithuanian National Defence Volunteer Forces Personnel

The aim of this study was to determine the association between low back pain and the strength of knee flexor and extensor muscles in Lithuanian National Defence Volunteer Forces personnel.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

This cross-sectional study investigated the association between low back pain (LBP) and the hamstring-to-quadriceps (H/Q) strength ratio in personnel of the Lithuanian National Defence Volunteer Forces. Active-duty volunteers with and without LBP underwent isokinetic testing of knee flexor and extensor muscle strength using a Biodex System 4 Pro dynamometer at angular velocities of 60°/s and 120°/s. Hamstring strength, quadriceps strength, H/Q ratios, and inter-limb asymmetries were assessed to explore potential associations with low back pain in this military population.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Low back pain prevalence
Tidsramme: Baseline
Participants were asked whether they had experienced low back pain during the past 12 months (yes/no). Participants who responded "yes" were classified into the low back pain group.
Baseline
Low back pain intensity
Tidsramme: Baseline
LBP intensity was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS, 0-10) , where 0 - no pain, and 10 - worst imaginable pain.
Baseline
Low back pain duration
Tidsramme: Baseline
Participants were asked to indicate LBP duration. LBP pain duration was classified as acute (<3 months) or chronic (≥3 months)
Baseline
Muscle strength peak torque
Tidsramme: Baseline

Muscle strength was assessed using the Biodex System 4 isokinetic dynamometer. Participants were instructed to avoid vigorous physical activity 24 hours before testing and refrain from eating for at least 2 hours prior to assessment. A 10-minute warm-up on a cycle ergometer (50-60 W) and light dynamic exercises were performed before testing. Participants were seated with the backrest at 85° and hip flexion at 90°. The dynamometer axis was aligned with the lateral femoral epicondyle, and the lower leg was secured 2-3 cm above the ankle. The range of motion was set from 70° knee flexion to full extension. The trunk and tested limb were stabilized using straps.

Testing included 5 repetitions at 60°/s and 10 repetitions at 120°/s, with a 30-second rest interval between sets. Prior to testing, participants performed 3-5 familiarization repetitions.

Peak torque normalized to body weight (Nm/kg) was recorded.
