Single‐Segment Spinal Decompression and Fusion With Selective Nerve Root Block in Adult Degenerative Scoliosis: A Retrospective Comparative Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Single‐segment PLIF with preoperative SNRB achieves equivalent clinical outcomes to long‐segment fusion in adult degenerative scoliosis. This approach significantly reduces hospitalization duration and revision rates in appropriately selected patients.

The factors of deterioration in long-term clinical course of lumbar spinal canal stenosis after successful conservative treatment

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
Background The treatment of lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LSS) depends on symptom severity. In the absence of severe symptoms such as severe motor disturbances or bowel and/or urinary dysfunction, conservative treatment is generally the first choice for ...

Full Endoscopic Piecemeal Resection of Lumbar Ligamentum Flavum Cyst With Uniaxial Large Working Channel Spinal Endoscope: Technical Report and Case Series

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The formation of lumbar ligamentum flavum cyst (LLFC) represents one of the extremely rare etiologies of lumbar spinal stenosis. Owing to the rarity of such cases and the severe adhesion of LLFC to adjacent tissues, significant challenges are posed to surgical intervention.

Intestinal epithelial injury and inflammation after physical work in temperate and hot environments in older men with hypertension or type 2 diabetes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We tested whether older adults with well‐controlled type 2 diabetes or hypertension, compared with age‐matched adults without chronic disease, exhibit greater intestinal damage, microbial translocation and inflammation during exertional heat stress.

Intermittent claudication and severe renal artery stenosis are independently associated in hypertensive patients referred for renal arteriography

Clinics
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between the presence of clinical symptoms of peripheral artery disease and severe renal artery stenosis in patients referred for renal angiography. METHOD: We included 82 patients with

Effect of foot immersion and neck cooling on renal, intestinal, immune and inflammatory markers in older adults exposed to extreme heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults with reduced thermoregulatory capabilities are increasingly at risk of heat‐related pathophysiological outcomes (e.g., acute kidney injury, heatstroke) due to increasingly frequent, prolonged and intense heatwaves. Foot immersion and neck cooling have been proposed as practical, non‐electrical cooling strategies for protecting ...
