Dynamic behavior of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc loading: a systematic review and meta-analysis exploring the concept of dynamic disc model

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
IntroductionThe dynamic disc model (DDM) is a theoretical framework in spine mechanics that theorizes the behavior of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc under various loads.

Not all lumbar herniated discs cause low back pain

Horizonte Médico, 2017
After a long series of terms used to define the displacement of disc material (either the nucleus pulposus or the fibrous ring), herniated discs were classified as bulging, focal protrusion, extrusion and sequestration. Herniated discs represent from 1%

Biomechanical comparison between unilateral and bilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures: A finite element analysis

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Background and objective: The osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) has an incidence of 7.8/1000 person-years at 55–65 years. At 75 years or older, the incidence increases to 19.6/1000 person-years in females and 5.2–9.3/1000 person-years in
