Table 3. Crude and Adjusted Odds Ratios of the Mean Composite Lifting Index (CLI) for Predicting Self-Reported Low-Back Pain (LBP) at One-Year Follow-Up (N = 78).
| CLI Category | n | LBP Cases | M | SD | OR | 95% CI | p | aORa | 95% CI | p |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Continuous CLI | 78 | 25 | 1.5 | 1.0 | 1.3 | 0.8–2.1 | .3 | 1.6 | 0.9–2.8 | .08 |
| CLI ≤ 1 | 29 | 6 | 0.7 | 0.2 | Ref | Ref | Ref | Ref | Ref | Ref |
| 1 < CLI ≤ 2 | 32 | 12 | 1.4 | 0.3 | 2.3 | 0.7–7.3 | .16 | 3.2 | 0.9–11.2 | .07 |
| 2 < CLI | 17 | 7 | 3.0 | 1.1 | 2.7 | 0.7–10 | .14 | 5.1* | 1.1–24.5 | .04 |
Adjusted for history of prior self-reported LBP, supervisory support, and job strain.
