* Outcomes are presented for the 12-week (short-term) and 24-week (intermediate-term) follow-ups. The SMT and LM group percentages are unadjusted. Missing data were imputed except for five participants with no follow-up data. Odds ratios were adjusted for differences between groups in the baseline value of the outcome and all randomization variables. Ratios greater than 1.0 favor spinal manipulation.
† Modified Von Korff scale (scored from 0 to 100 points before dichotomization).
