Spinal Disorders Research

KEY FINDING: lncRNAs are involved in the occurrence and development of spinal diseases, including IDD, ankylosing spondylitis, and spinal cord injury.

KEY FINDING: The MIS-TLIF group had longer operation times and more intraoperative fluoroscopy times compared to the OPEN-TLIF group.

KEY FINDING: AMUC injections significantly reduced pain in patients with spinal disorders, with pain scores decreasing as early as two weeks post-injection.

KEY FINDING: OO patients with irreducible AAD can be treated by translateral mass release or transoral release combined with posterior fixation and fusion

KEY FINDING: EP injuries significantly increased SubP, Iba1, and GFAP in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, indicating spinal cord sensitization and neuroinflammation.

KEY FINDING: The study found that all 20 patients with SSTTB were completely cured without recurrence after undergoing Wiltse TTIF surgery combined with anti-TB chemotherapy.

KEY FINDING: Patients undergoing surgery for DCM have a reduced life expectancy compared to the general population.

KEY FINDING: The study identified three distinct clusters of CSM patients based on DBSI metrics using k-means clustering.

KEY FINDING: Aggressive vertebral hemangiomas can cause significant pain and neurological symptoms due to spinal cord compression.

KEY FINDING: White patients were less likely to have severe symptoms like myelopathy, while Black and Hispanic patients were more likely to experience these symptoms.
