2026年7月27日 更新者：Fang Luo、Beijing Tiantan Hospital
Efficacy and Safety of Venlafaxine in the Treatment of Non-specific Low Back Pain
Chronic non-specific low back pain is the leading cause of productivity loss and disability worldwide, constituting a major public health challenge.
This study aims to systematically evaluate and compare the role of the antidepressant drug Venlafaxine in chronic non-specific low back pain, which is of critical importance for optimising clinical practice and developing precise, individualised treatment regimens.

实验性的：Venlafaxine group
Venlafaxine is administered orally at a starting dose of 75 mg once daily.
In patients with insufficient pain response who can tolerate the adverse effects, the dose may be carefully titrated up to 225 mg once daily.
The maintenance period is 3 months.

Change From Baseline in Average Low Back Pain Intensity at Month 3
大体时间：3 months after randomization
|
Average low back pain intensity during the previous week will be assessed using an 11-point Numerical Rating Scale, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain.

Change From Baseline in Functional Disability Assessed by the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire
大体时间：Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
Functional disability related to low back pain will be assessed using the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire.
Higher scores indicate greater functional disability.
|
Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
|
Global Perceived Recovery
大体时间：1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
Overall improvement will be assessed using a 6-point Likert scale ranging from "much worse" to "completely recovered."
|
1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
|
Change From Baseline in Health-related Quality of Life Assessed by EQ-5D-5L
大体时间：Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
Health-related quality of life will be assessed using the EQ-5D-5L.
The EQ-5D-5L includes five health dimensions, and each dimension has five severity levels.
Higher health utility scores indicate better health status.
|
Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
|
Change From Baseline in Sleep Quality Assessed by the Insomnia Severity Index
大体时间：Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
Sleep quality and insomnia symptoms will be assessed using the patient-reported version of the Insomnia Severity Index.
The scale contains 7 items evaluating sleep onset difficulty, sleep maintenance difficulty, early morning awakening, satisfaction with sleep, interference with daytime functioning, noticeability of sleep problems, and distress caused by sleep difficulties.
Each item is scored from 0 to 4, and the total score ranges from 0 to 28.
Scores are interpreted as follows: 0-7, no clinically significant insomnia; 8-14, subthreshold insomnia; 15-21, moderate insomnia; and 22-28, severe insomnia.

|
Change From Baseline in Back Pain Beliefs Assessed by the Back Beliefs Questionnaire
大体时间：Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
Beliefs about back pain will be assessed using the Back Beliefs Questionnaire.
Scores range from 9 to 45, with lower scores indicating more pessimistic beliefs about the consequences of back pain.
|
Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
|
Change From Baseline in Neuropathic Pain Features Assessed by the painDETECT Questionnaire
大体时间：Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
Neuropathic pain features will be assessed using the painDETECT questionnaire.
A score of 19 or higher suggests the presence of a neuropathic pain component.
|
Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after randomization
|
|
Use of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs
