Radiomics based on MRI to predict recurrent L4-5 disc herniation after percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging
Background In recent years, radiomics has been shown to be an effective tool for the diagnosis and prediction of diseases. Existing evidence suggests that imaging features play a key role in predicting the recurrence of lumbar disk herniation (rLDH ...

Development of a Grasshopper‐Leg‐Inspired Back‐Type Exoskeleton for the Reduction of Muscle Activation During Stoop Activities

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers frequently suffer from musculoskeletal disorders, particularly lower back pain (LBP), mainly due to occupational ergonomic factors such as repetitive stooping and lifting. This study proposes using an exoskeleton to reduce LBP risk by providing external torque to the hip joints.

Biomechanical Effects of Different Approaches and Titanium Mesh in Combined Anterior Cervical Corpectomy Decompression and Fusion: A Finite Element Study

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Equivalent stress cloud maps of cervical spine flexion movement after four anterior approach methods. (a) VBSP‐S method. (b) AVBSP‐C method. (c) APSP‐S method. (d) APSP‐C method. ACCF biomechanics depend on fixation (AVBSP/APSP) and mesh shape (linear/curved). Adjacent disc sensitivity varies. Fixation choice affects titanium mesh stress.

Transient 7‐hour coma following a sacrococcygeal epidural with ropivacaine in a cat

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract A 2‐year‐old cat was anaesthetised for pelvic fracture repair. Premedication included methadone 0.2 mg/kg and medetomidine 5 µg/kg intravenously (IV). Anaesthesia was induced with ketamine 2 mg/kg and propofol 1 mg/kg IV and maintained with isoflurane.

Synaptic Vesicle Glycoprotein 2A Suppresses Amyloidogenesis Beyond Its Synaptic Role: A Novel Mechanism Disrupting BACE1 Binding and Altering APP Localization

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2026.
Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A, the newly identified APP‐binding protein, reduces amyloid‐β plaque deposition in Alzheimer's disease by suppressing the amyloidogenic pathway through inhibition of BACE1‐APP interaction and alteration of APP endosomal‐lysosomal localization.
