Cervical spine fracture dislocation with mild neurological deficits

BMJ Case Rep, 2025 • January 10, 2025

Cervical fracture dislocation often leads to neurological deficits, manifesting with sensory and motor symptoms, which may persist even after surgical intervention. In Case 1, the patient presented wi...

KEY FINDING: Case 1 involved a patient with left-hand numbness after a car accident who had a C5/C6 facet fracture dislocation and spinal cord indentation, treated with open reduction and fixation.

An atlas of neuropathic pain-associated molecular pathological characteristics in the mouse spinal cord

Communications Biology, 2025 • January 9, 2025

This study uses spatial transcriptomics (ST), single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) and bulk RNA-sequencing (bulk RNA-seq) to characterize regional pathological heterogeneity of the spinal cord (S...

KEY FINDING: The study found unique spatial atlases of genes, cell populations, cell-cell cross-talks, signaling pathways, and transcriptional regulatory networks in the spinal cord of neuropathic pain mice compared to sham mice.

Ferroptosis‑related genes participate in the microglia‑induced neuroinflammation of spinal cord injury via NF‑κB signaling: evidence from integrated single‑cell and spatial transcriptomic analysis

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2025 • January 8, 2025

The study identifies key biomarkers related to ferroptosis and the immune microenvironment after SCI, providing clues for subsequent studies at the transcriptional and single-cell levels. WGCNA identi...

KEY FINDING: A novel subcluster of microglia exhibiting M1 polarization and a ferroptosis phenotype is involved in SCI, potentially triggering neuroinflammation and neuronal degeneration.
