• The role of interleukin-1 in the pathogenesis of human Intervertebral disc degeneration (2005, neutral): “Current evidence implicates loss of intervertebral disc (IVD) matrix consequent upon disc 'degeneration' as a major cause of low back pain [1].”
• Intervertebral Disc: Anatomy‐Physiology‐Pathophysiology‐Treatment (2008, background): “Back pain is strongly associated with degeneration of the intervertebral disc.(2) Disc degeneration, although in many cases asymptomatic,(3) is also associated with sciatica and disc herniation or prolapse.”
• Catabolic cytokine expression in degenerate and herniated human intervertebral discs: IL-1β and TNFα expression profile (2007, neutral): “Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration and IVD herniation are major causes of low back pain (LBP) [1], which is a common, debilitating and economically important disorder [2,3].”
