Comparative Analysis of Three Vertebral Screw Placement Directions in Anterior Thoracolumbar Fracture Surgery: A Finite Element Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1464-1477, May 2025.
This study compares the biomechanical effects of three anterior fixation systems in thoracolumbar surgery—HXTL, NHXTL, and Medtronic's CD Horizon ANTERIOR. Finite element analysis evaluates stress and displacement across vertebral bodies and support structures under varying load conditions. Results indicate the HXTL system minimizes nail–rod stress yet

Factors and Experiences Associated With Unscheduled Hospital Readmission After Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion: A Case–Controlled Study

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.

Establishing a Staging System for Adjacent Segment Disease and Exploring Its Significance in Guiding Surgical Decisions: A Retrospective Study

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 ...

Postoperative Curvature Loss in Three‐Level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion With Zero‐Profile Device

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study focused on postoperative curvature loss (PCL) for three‐level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with Zero‐Profile device. Lower preoperative curvature and preoperative T1 slope were predictive factors of PCL. Postoperative change of TPE distance and T1 slope were risk factors. PCL may impair patients' quality of life.

The High‐Intensity Zone: A Dynamic Inflammatory Hub in Lumbar Disc Degeneration

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The HIZ, a dynamic inflammatory hub in lumbar disc degeneration, links inflammation‐degeneration‐pain; integrating advanced diagnostics and targeted therapies offers precise management for discogenic low back pain. ABSTRACT The lumbar intervertebral disc high‐intensity zone (HIZ), a focal hyperintensity within the annulus fibrosus on T2‐weighted ...

Clinical Efficacy and Learning Curve of Far‐Lateral Approach (FLA) in Uni‐Portal Non‐Coaxial Spinal Endoscopic Surgery (UNSES) in the Treatment of Lumbar Degenerative Diseases: A Prospective Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
UNSES via FLA is a safe and effective minimally invasive technique for treating complex lumbar degenerative diseases. It has a certain learning curve, and the inflection point is about the 16th case. After mastering the key techniques such as anatomical positioning, endoscopic manipulation and hemostasis, the surgeon can gradually reach the proficiency

Safety and tolerance of oral ketamine: A systematic review

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Oral ketamine has gained increasing interest beyond anesthesia, particularly for treatment‐resistant depression, chronic pain, and pediatric procedural sedation. Despite expanding off‐label use, there is no standardized pharmaceutical formulation, and long‐term safety remains uncertain.

From senescence and inflammaging to systemic comorbidities: Drivers of aging‐associated periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Aging is accompanied by a chronic low‐grade inflammatory process, known as inflammaging, as well as immunosenescence, an age‐related decline and dysregulation of immune function, and cellular senescence, a process in which cells enter a state of irreversible growth arrest while actively releasing pro‐inflammatory factors.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Creatine Kinase as a Biomarker in Dogs With Neurologic Disease: A Multivariate Analysis to Guide Future Directions

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Creatine kinase (CK) is typically associated with skeletal muscle injury, but elevated CK in blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may also be reflective of central nervous system damage. Previous research has therefore explored the role of CK as a biomarker of neurologic disease in veterinary patients.
