AB  - OBJECTIVES: To compare pelvis, hip and knee kinematics during gait and 
      extensibility of hip muscles between low back pain (LBP) and asymptomatic 
      subjects. METHODS: Forty adult volunteers (11 men and 29 women) between 18 to 30 
      years from university population were included in this study. Twenty patients 
      with LBP formed the LBP group, and 20 asymptomatic subjects formed the control 
      group. Pelvic tilt and knee valgus, peak hip and knee joint excursion, and 
      temporo-spatial variables were assessed during gait with Kinovea software. 
      Extensibility of hip muscles was measured by Active Knee Extension test (AKE), 
      modified Ober test, and Thomas test. RESULTS: There was a significant increase in 
      pelvic tilt (p< 0.01), valgus angle (p< 0.01), and a significant decrease in hip 
      extension (p< 0.01) in the LBP group compared to the control group. There was a 
      significant decrease in extensibility of the hip flexors (p< 0.05) of the 
      dominant leg and in the hip abductors (p< 0.01) in the LBP group compared to the 
      control group. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study suggest that non-specific 
      mechanic LBP patients present differences in the pelvis, hip and knee kinematics 
      in sagittal and frontal plane during gait and less hip flexors and abductors 
      muscles extensibility compared to asymptomatic subjects.
