Cumulative occupational lumbar load and lumbar disc disease : results of a German multi-center case-control study (EPILIFT) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background The to date evidence for a dose-response relationship between physical workload and the development of lumbar disc diseases is limited. We therefore investigated the possible etiologic relevance of cumulative occupational lumbar load to lumbar

Intervertebral disc degeneration in dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Back pain is common in both dogs and humans, and is often associated with intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. The IVDs are essential structures of the spine and degeneration can ultimately result in diseases such as IVD herniation or spinal ...

Development of a deep learning model for automatic detection of narrowed intervertebral disc space sites in caudal thoracic and lumbar lateral X-ray images of dogs

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Intervertebral disc disease is the most common spinal cord-related disease in dogs, caused by disc material protrusion or extrusion that compresses the spinal cord, leading to clinical symptoms.

Notochord Cells in Intervertebral Disc Development and Degeneration

open access: yesJournal of Developmental Biology, 2016
The intervertebral disc is a complex structure responsible for flexibility, multi-axial motion, and load transmission throughout the spine. Importantly, degeneration of the intervertebral disc is thought to be an initiating factor for back pain. Due to a

Axial T2 mapping in intervertebral discs: a new technique for assessment of intervertebral disc degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
To demonstrate the potential benefits of biochemical axial T2 mapping of intervertebral discs (IVDs) regarding the detection and grading of early stages of degenerative disc disease using 1.5-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a clinical ...
