Side\u2010lying is the most common posture, with supportive alignment reducing pain and poor alignment worsening it. Variable positions showed minimal association with LBP.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review emphasises the role of sleep posture in managing low back pain (LBP) by recommending supine and supportive side\u2010lying positions for better spinal health. Prone sleeping, linked to pain, should be avoided. Ergonomic interventions, such as proper bedding and posture education, are suggested for LBP relief.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/msc.70114","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,7]],"date-time":"2025-05-07T21:13:36Z","timestamp":1746652416000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Relationship Between Sleep Posture and Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-3122-6583","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yashita","family":"Saini","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physiotherapy Shree Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary University  Gurugram India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anushree","family":"Rai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physiotherapy Shree Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary University  Gurugram India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siddhartha","family":"Sen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physiotherapy Shree Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary University  Gurugram India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5958\/0976\u20105506.2015.00164.3"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0260582"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3233\/WOR\u2010152243"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00296\u2010002\u20100268\u2010x"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7717\/peerj.11055"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40779\u2010020\u201000238\u20108"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_12_8_1","first-page":"134","article-title":"Biophysics of Lower Back Pain","volume":"39","author":"Moh A.
