Diagnostic accuracy and reliability of muscle strength and endurance measurements in patients with chronic low back pain
Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 07/01/09

Monitoring treatment outcome in these patients with these measures appears to be problematic because of learning effects. Based on these findings, the authors recommend the Biering-Sørensen test for management of chronic low back pain rehabilitation.
