Effectiveness of Erector Spinae Muscle Block in Vertebral Oncologic Fracture [PDF]
Objectives An observational, retrospective, longitudinal, and analytical study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the erector spinae plane (ESP) block in managing pain in patients with vertebral fractures secondary to tumoral activity. This study included patients treated at the Pain Clinic who underwent ESP block.

Measuring the paraspinal muscles as an important tool for predicting the overall survival period after spine surgery in lung cancer patients with spine metastasis [PDF]
Study design Retrospective cohort study Background Metastatic lung cancer in the spine is difficult to determine whether to perform an additional surgical intervention, as patients at the end stage of lung cancer often have low performance status with ...

The cross-sectional area of erector spinae muscle and the liver-to-spleen ratio are associated with frailty in older patients with diabetes: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Background Older patients with diabetes mellitus are more susceptible to frailty. Although some imaging markers of appendicular skeletal muscle mass obtained using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry or computed tomography (CT) imaging can reflect frailty ...

Motor unit potentials of the erector spinae muscle by concentric needle electromyography
AbstractIntroductionThe needle electromyography (EMG) serves to supply additional information in patients with suspected neuromuscular disorders. We aimed to provide motor unit potential (MUP) data by concentric needle EMG in the erector spinae (ES) in comparison with biceps brachii (BB) and lateral vastus (LV).MethodsElectromyography MUP data (n) were
