Atrophy of paraspinal muscles is common in low back pain (LBP). Early studies report atrophy and abnormalities of the paraspinal muscles in 20% to 60% of people with chronic LBP.More recent data suggest a reduced cross-sectional area of multifidus at L4 and/or L5 in chronic LBP.ntroduction.

Hyenas usually bear litters of two to four cubs, which, unlike the other two species, are born with their eyes open. Cubs begin to eat meat from kills near the den at about 5 months, but they are suckled for as long as 12 to 18 months, an unusually long time for carnivores.
Although they are relatively small compared to some other African creatures, hyenas are the most common carnivore in Africa. They can weigh between 90 and 190 pounds and stand 28 to 35 inches tall. The spotted hyena has a tan or brown coat with dark spots and a dark face.
