A secondary objective was to evaluate the correlation between each test and MRI results.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Fifty-three 53 participants (mean age: 37.26\u2009\u00b1\u200912.16) with MRI-confirmed acute lumbar IVDH were included in the study. COLT and SLRT tests were conducted by the principal investigator, blinded to participant history, clinical findings, and MRI, while the co-investigator collected demographic and clinical data. Diagnostic performance was evaluated by sensitivity, specificity, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve measures.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>COLT demonstrated a higher diagnostic yield than SLRT, with a sensitivity of 92% and an overall diagnostic accuracy of 90.57%.

In contrast, SLRT had no agreement (\u03ba = -0.008) and no correlation (\u03a6 = -0.0274) with MRI and a poor AUC (0.473). MRI predominantly identified L4\u2013L5 herniations (47.5%) and disc bulges (54.5%). Vertebral endplate abnormalities, including Schmorl\u2019s nodes and Modic changes, were observed in 20 participants.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>COLT showed higher diagnostic utility than SLRT and correlated well with MRI results.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00586-025-09164-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,22]],"date-time":"2025-07-22T07:25:55Z","timestamp":1753169155000},"page":"4377-4385","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Diagnostic accuracy of the compression overload test versus straight leg Raise test in detecting lumbar disc herniation: an MRI-Validated Cross-Sectional study"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Malini","family":"Madhesh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Charu","family":"Eapen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Parthasarathy","family":"Eappakkam Kumaraswamy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vijayakumar","family":"Palaniswamy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,21]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"9164_CR1","first-page":"429","volume":"73","author":"GM Shetty","year":"2022","unstructured":"Shetty GM, Jain S, Thakur H, Khanna K (2022) Prevalence of low back pain in india: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
