other بررسی مقایسه‌ی 8 هفته تمرین ثبات مرکزی روی توپ با تمرین با طناب معلق، بر کیفیت زندگی و درد زنان مبتلا به کمردرد مزمن غیراختصاصی- تحقیق کارآزمایی بالینی مقاله پژوهشی Original Research Article <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="color:#008080;"><strong><em>Background and Objective</em></strong>:</span> Non-specific chronic low back pain (NSLBP) is the most common type of chronic lower back pain. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of 8 weeks of core stability exercises via Swiss ball and Sling on pain and quality of life in women with NSLBP.<br> <span style="color:#008080;"><strong><em>Materials and Methods</em></strong><strong>:</strong></span> The subjects participated voluntarily (n=32, Age= 19 to 45 years) and were randomly divided into three groups: Swiss ball exercise (BE) group (n:11, Age:36.3 &plusmn; 7.2), Sling exercise (SE) group (n:11, Age:35.9 &plusmn; 8.1) and Control group (n:10, Age:32.9 &plusmn; 7.6), The BE group and the SE group performed their exercise protocols for 8 weeks and during this period, the control group did not engage in any exercise. Pain and quality of life (QOL) was assessed Pre and Post intervention using the Quebec pain questionnaire and quality of life questionnaire (SF-36) respectively. Data were analyzed using SPSS statistical software version 20.<br> <span style="color:#008080;"><strong><em>Results</em></strong>:</span> The results of Repeated Measures and Non<span dir="RTL">-</span>parametric tests showed that when comparing the two experimental groups and the control group, pain levels and the scale of physical and mental health were significantly different respectively (P=0/002, P<0/001 and P<0/001). A difference between the two&nbsp;experimental groups was not observed, however, the means of pain and the scale of physical and mental health from pre-test to post-test showed a greater difference in the SE group when compared to the BE group.<br> <span style="color:#008080;"><strong><em>Conclusion</em></strong>:</span> According to the results of this research and taking into account the low sample size, it is possible that despite the more altered means in the SE group, the 8 weeks of core stability exercises via Swiss ball and Sling had the same positive effect on low back pain in women with NSLBP.</span></span></p> Swiss ball exercise, Sling exercise, Chronic low back pain, Quality of life. 44 56 http://journal.zums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-4-1095&slc_lang=other&sid=1 Rana Sadat Heidari رعناالسادات حیدری ranasadatheydari71@gmail.com 5200319475328460049783 5200319475328460049783 Yes Dept. of Sport Injury and Corrective Exercises, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Shahid Bahonar University, Kerman, Iran دانشگاه شهید باهنر کرمان، کرمان، ایران Mansour Sahebozamani منصور صاحب الزمانی 5200319475328460049784 5200319475328460049784 No Dept. of Sport Injury and Corrective Exercises, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Shahid Bahonar University, Kerman, Iran دانشگاه شهید باهنر کرمان، کرمان، ایران Fatemeh Karimi Afshar فاطمه کریمی افشار 5200319475328460049785 5200319475328460049785 No Faculty of Medicine, Kerman University of Medical Sciences, Kerman, Iran دانشگاه شهید باهنر کرمان، کرمان، ایران
