Lactate Metabolism in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration: Unveiling Novel Mechanisms Through Bioinformatics. [PDF]

open access: yesJOR Spine
This graphical abstract outlines the workflow to uncovering lactate metabolism‐related mechanisms in intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). First, three IDD datasets (GSE34095: 3 IDD vs 3 control; GSE147383: 2 IDD vs 2 control; GSE70362: 16 IDD vs 8 control) were sourced from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and 73 lactate metabolism ...

Functional outcome following direct repair or intervertebral fusion for adolescent spondylolysis : a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A systematic review of the literature was performed to establish whether direct repair of the pars defect or intervertebral fusion achieves better Oswestry Disability Index scores in adolescent spondylolysis or low-grade spondylolisthesis.

Mechanical Stress Triggers Premature Senescence in Cardiac Fibroblasts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cellular senescence contributes to disease burden in cardiovascular disease (CVD) and aging, highlighting the need to understand its induction. In primary cardiac fibroblasts, reduced strain and increased frequency, mimicking CVD, elicit a distinct senescent phenotype compared to oxidative stress.

Endogenous musculoskeletal tissue engineering - a focused perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Two major difficulties facing widespread clinical implementation of existing Tissue Engineering (TE) strategies for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders are (1) the cost, space and time required for ex vivo culture of a patient’s autologous cells ...

Pathomechanism of intervertebral disc degeneration

open access: yesJOR SPINE, 2020
AbstractIntervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is the main contributor to low back pain, which is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Although substantial progress has been made in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of IDD, fundamental and long‐lasting treatments for IDD are still lacking.

Anti‐Swelling Hydrogel Combined With Nucleus Pulposus Cell Exosomes and Senolytic Drugs Efficiently Repair Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a bifunctional anti‐swelling hydrogel system is developed, which encapsulated anti‐senescence drugs quercetin, dasatinib, nucleus pulposus‐derived exosomes (NP‐Exo) to clear senescent nucleus pulposus cells, regulate the inflammatory disc microenvironment, and enhance nucleus pulposus cells activity, ultimately promoting the repair of ...

Successful medical management of an epidural abscess in a dog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A seven-month-old entire male dobermann presented with acute onset neck pain and left thoracic limb lameness. The dog had a similar episode eight weeks before presentation that responded to meloxicam.

Antioxidant Carbon Dot of Selenomethionine Alleviates Oxidative Stress in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A selenomethionine‐derived carbon dot (Se‐Met‐CD) serves as a potent nano‐antioxidant, efficiently scavenging reactive oxygen species, protecting nucleus pulposus cells from oxidative damage, restoring extracellular matrix homeostasis, and significantly mitigating intervertebral disc degeneration in vivo, which demonstrates great promise as a nanozyme ...

Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Cooperative Surgery for Gastric Cancer as an Alternative Treatment in Elderly Patients: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In a prospective study of 20 elderly gastric cancer patients who declined gastrectomy, laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (LECS) was technically safe and preserved postoperative function. However, as oncological curability cannot be assured in advanced cases, careful selection and informed consent are essential.
