CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN: INVESTIGATING THE INFLUENCE OF LIFESTYLE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ON FACTORS THAT EXACERBATE OR ENHANCE PATIENT OUTCOMES.

Chronic Low Back Pain: Investigating the Influence of Lifestyle and Physical Activity on Factors that Exacerbate or Enhance Patient Outcomes.

Introduction and Purpose: Low back pain (LBP) is a widespread condition and often leading to chronic low back pain (CLBP) in many cases.Although physical activity has shown significant benefits in reducing pain and improving functionality, additional elements such as mental health and social factors may play an essential role in CLBP management.Thi

Bootstrapping pentagon functions

Abstract In Phys.Rev.Lett.116 (2016) 062001, the space of planar pentagon functions that describes all two-loop on-shell five-particle scattering amplitudes was introduced.In the present paper we present a natural extension of this space to non-planar pentagon functions.This provides the basis for our pentagon bootstrap program.We classify the rele

Genetic architecture of complex agronomic traits examined in two testcross populations of rye (Secale cereale L.)

Abstract Background Rye is an important European crop used for food, feed, and bioenergy.Several quality and yield-related traits are of agronomic relevance for rye breeding programs.Profound knowledge of the genetic architecture of these traits is needed to successfully implement marker-assisted selection programs.Nevertheless, little is known on
