A case of cardiac arrest due to air embolism during scoliosis surgery
Cardiac arrest during scoliosis surgery is rare in idiopathic scoliosis. We present a case of cardiorespiratory collapse during corrective surgery in a young patient with idiopathic scoliosis. A diagnosis of venous air embolism was made by exclusion.

Glycosylation, specifically hypersialylation, is identified as a critical factor in human intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration—a major cause of low back pain. This study demonstrates that inhibiting sialylation reduces inflammation and oxidative stress in IVD tissues, suggesting new therapeutic possibilities.

Expanding the Genetic and Phenotypic Spectrum of DYT‐VPS16: The Importance of Splice‐Site Variants
Abstract Background DYT‐VPS16, an early‐onset isolated dystonia caused by variants in the VPS16 gene, has been reported in fewer than 70 patients. Methods We explored the clinical and genotypic spectrum of DYT‐VPS16 by investigating early‐onset dystonia patients with VPS16 variants discovered in our large Biodatabank and through gene‐matching ...
