Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.Schematic illustration showing that FAP‐α promoted angiogenesis, cytokine release and ECM degradation in the CEP degeneration of the intervertebral disc through upregulating the PI3K/Akt/HIF‐1α/VEGFA pathway. ABSTRACT Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a primary cause of low back pain, with the development of new blood vessels being a key ...

Degenerative Spondylolisthesis: A Narrative Review.
Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2021 Degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) is a condition leading to the slippage of one vertebral body over the one below due to degenerative changes resulting in spinal stenosis and producing neurogenic claudication, with or without low back pain. DS prevalence is age and gender specific.

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1389-1396, May 2025.The research utilized a case–control approach to contrast patients experiencing unscheduled readmissions with those undergoing planned readmissions due to staged surgery. Findings indicated a 3.88% rate of unscheduled readmissions, mainly linked to adjacent segment disease, with 3.35% necessitating reoperation.

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1418-1432, May 2025.Developed a staging system for adjacent segment disease based on degeneration characteristics. Verified the feasibility and reliability of stage‐guided surgical decision‐making through surgical data, radiological data, and follow‐up data. This staging system was closely correlated with intervertebral disc degeneration and disc height while also ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.Lumbar fusion can cause adjacent vertebral diseases, about 50% of which is spinal stenosis. Our retrospective cohort study demonstrated that concurrent laminotomy decompression of proximal adjacent vertebrae during primary lumbar fusion surgery significantly reduces the incidence of adjacent segment stenosis at 1‐year follow‐up.
