Disk Degeneration and Low Back Pain: Are They Fat-Related Conditions?

open access: yesGlobal Spine Journal, 2013
Low back pain (LBP) is the world's most debilitating condition. Disk degeneration has been regarded as a strong determinant associated with LBP. Overweight and obesity are public health concerns that affect every population worldwide and whose prevalence

Difference of Disk Degeneration and Segmental Range of Motion due to Lumbar Disk Level among Age and Gender: 639 Asymptomatic Volunteer Data [PDF]

open access: yesSpine Surgery and Related Research
Introduction: There is limited evidence between lumbar disk degeneration and normal lumbar segmental range of motions (SRMs), because previous studies were skewed by age and lacked large cohort of asymptomatic data.

Theoretical Explorations Generate New Hypotheses About the Role of the Cartilage Endplate in Early Intervertebral Disk Degeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Altered cell nutrition in the intervertebral disk (IVD) is considered a main cause for disk degeneration (DD). The cartilage endplate (CEP) provides a major path for the diffusion of nutrients from the peripheral vasculature to the IVD nucleus pulposus ...

Disk degeneration of the upper lumbar disks is associated with hip pain [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Spine Journal, 2012
A possible cause of hip pain is the presence of radiating pain from the higher lumbar spine. Identification of factors associated with hip pain arising from the lumbar spine would aid the physician. The first step in identifying possible factors is to look at the association between hip pain and osteoarthritis of the lumbar spine.In an open population ...
