Virtual Reality Training for Balance in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Chronic low back pain is often associated with impaired balance and reduced functional mobility. Recent studies suggest that virtual reality-based interventions may be effective in improving balance outcomes in individuals with chronic low back pain. Objective: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to investigate the impact of virtual reality training on static and dynamic balance outcomes in patients with chronic low back pain. Methods: Two independent reviewers searched English-language studies from inception to 1 July 2024, using the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Dimensions, Semantic Scholar, and ProQuest. Randomized clinical trials with a PEDro score of ≥6 were included. Fixed- and random-effects meta-analyses were
