Previous research showed people with diabetes were 1.35 times and 1.24 times more likely to report low back pain and neck pain than people without diabetes respectively, but diabetes was not a predictor of future spinal pain. Here we update a previous systematic review to determine whether in an adult population, diabetes is associated with low back, neck, or spinal pain.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The search was performed in PUBMED, Medline, CINAHL and EMBASE. Studies between 2017\u20132025, of cross-sectional, case\u2013control, twin-control, and cohort designs, assessing diabetes and low back, neck, or spinal pain in adult populations, were included. Excluded were single-case studies, spinal pathologies, multiple chronic diseases, additional pain sites, and gestational or pre-diabetes. Two independent reviewers extracted data on the incidence of pain and reported associations. Odds ratios (ORs) of the association between the exposure (diabetes) and outcome (back, neck, or spinal pain) were calculated using a random effects model.
