We assess the effectiveness of interventions for acute and subacute non-specific low back pain (NS-LBP) based on pain and disability outcomes.

A systematic review of the literature with network meta-analysis.

Medline, Embase and CENTRAL databases were searched from inception until 17 October 2020.

Randomised clinical trials (RCTs) involving adults with NS-LBP who experienced pain for less than 6 weeks (acute) or between 6 and 12 weeks (subacute).
