Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

Tissue Engineering for Intervertebral Disk Degeneration [PDF]
, 2011 Many challenges confront intervertebral disk engineering owing to complexity and the presence of extraordinary stresses. Rebuilding a disk of native function could be useful for removal of the symptoms and correction of altered spine kinematics ...

BMEMat, EarlyView.The cervical interbody cage needs to take both biomechanical and biological requirements into account. Here, a new‐style degradable, multicomponent, and bioinspired nacre‐like cervical interbody cage composite, which exhibits promising mechanical‐support‐related behavior and osteogenesis‐related potential, is designed and prepared.

Tissue-engineered Total Disc Replacement: In vivo Outcomes of a Canine Cervical Disc Study
Global Spine Journal, 2016 Introduction Despite being effective, the most commonly performed treatments for degenerative disc disease (DDD), fusion and prosthetic total disc replacement, still pose risks of pseudoarthrosis, implant dislodgement, and adjacent segment disease.
