Measurement of intervertebral cervical motion by means of dynamic X-ray image processing and data interpolation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Accurate measurement of intervertebral kinematics of the cervical spine can support the diagnosis of widespread diseases related to neck pain, such chronic whiplash dysfunction, arthritis, segmental degeneration. The natural inaccessibility of the spine,

Engineering Efferocytosis for Bone Regeneration

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
The repair of bone tissue in acute and chronic injuries is a significant long‐standing clinical challenge. Biomaterials‐based interventions are well‐positioned to interrogate mechanisms of efferocytosis due to their ability to provide support and guide cellular activity.

Mechanical Function of the Nucleus Pulposus of the Intervertebral Disc Under High Rates of Loading.

open access: yesSpine, 2019
STUDY DESIGN Bovine motion segments were used to investigate the high-rate compression response of intervertebral discs (IVD) before and after depressurising the nucleus pulposus (NP) by drilling a hole through the cranial endplate into it.

Gastric dilatation secondary to incarceration through a gastrosplenic omental rent in a dog

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 2‐year‐old, entire, female Dogue de Bordeaux presented with inappetence and abdominal distension. Radiographs revealed gastric dilatation and malpositioning. Given the absence of classical signs of gastric dilatation and volvulus, a medical approach was elected. After 24 hours, the dog's condition deteriorated.

Clarifying the nomenclature of intervertebral disc degeneration and displacement: from bench to bedside.

open access: yesInternational journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2015
As a significant determinant of low back pain, intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) has attracted more and more attention of both investigators and physicians. Disc herniation, termed as intervertebral disc displacement, is amongst the most prevalent spinal diseases closely linked with IDD.

A structurally and functionally biomimetic biphasic scaffold for intervertebral disc tissue engineering. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tissue engineering offers high hopes for the treatment of intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. Whereas scaffolds of the disc nucleus and annulus have been extensively studied, a truly biomimetic and mechanically functional biphasic scaffold using ...

Neuter status as a risk factor for canine intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) in dachshunds: a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesCanine Genetics and Epidemiology, 2018
Intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) involves displacement of the intervertebral disc secondary to disc degeneration and is extremely common in dachshunds. Clinical signs include pain with or without paresis or paralysis. Mortality rate is high and some

Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Is an Effective Senomorphic Agent to Target the Pro‐Inflammatory Phenotype of Senescent Cells

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
As a natural senomorphic agent, PQQ targets the intracellular molecule. HSPA8 of senescent cells, resulting in significantly reduced expression of the SASP. PQQ holds prominent potential to delay chronological aging and ameliorate age‐related conditions by acting as an effective senomorphic agent.

Review of the tetrapod skull–neck boundary: implications for the evolution of the atlas–axis complex

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review describes variation in modern and fossil occiput–atlas–axis complex anatomy of total group Tetrapoda with the aim of documenting the range of structural variation throughout their evolutionary history to establish grounds for comparison of the complex between tetrapod clades.

Delivering mesenchymal stem cells in collagen microsphere carriers to rabbit degenerative disc - Reduced risk of osteophyte formation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the potential to treat early intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. However, during intradiscal injection, the vast majority of cells leaked out even in the presence of hydrogel carrier.
