An Interdisciplinary Multimodal Integrative Healthcare Program for Chronic Spinal Pain and Comorbid Mental Disorders
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Previous studies evaluating interdisciplinary multimodal interventions for chronic spinal pain often excluded patients with comorbid mental disorders. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of an outpatient secondary care interdisciplinary multimodal integrative healthcare program for individuals experiencing co-occurring chronic spinal pain and mental disorders. METHODS: Participants were 944 patients with chronic spinal pain and comorbid mental disorders. Primary outcomes were health-related quality of life, assessed using the Research and Development-36 (RAND-36), and pain-related disability, assessed using the Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale (QBPDS). Secondary outcomes included pain intensity, pain catastrophizing, kinesiophobia, fatigue, lumbar mobility, and isometric strength. Data were collected during the healthcare program at four time points: pretreatment (T0), midway through 20-week treatment (T1), end of 20-week treatment (T2), and at completion of 12-month relapse prevention program (T3). Multilevel regression analyses were conducted to examine the effects of the healthcare program on primary outcomes over time. RESULTS: The 20-week treatment period yielded significant improvements in both mental ( B = 0.44, t (943) = 19.42, p < .001) and physical component summary scores ( B = 0.45, t (943) = 18.24, p < .001) of the RAND-36, as well as in QBPDS total score ( B = -0.77, t (943) = -26.16 p < .001). Pretreatment scores indicated the presence of problematic fatigue, kinesiophobia, and clinical levels of pain catastrophizing, all of which resolved by the end of the 12-month relapse prevention program. CONCLUSIONS: An interdisciplinary multimodal integrative healthcare program seems effective for patients with chronic spinal pain and comorbid mental disorders.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
