Mathematical simulation of the predicted reduction in pain when the number of factors contributing to LBP that must be addressed with treatment is considered. On the vertical axis is the predicted success when a single factor that contributes the most to LBP is addressed with treatment. As the number of factors contributing to LBP increases, the effectiveness of such an intervention decreases. Abbreviation: LBP, low back pain.
