Fetal Pathogenesis of Scoliosis Suggested by Asymmetry of Gene Expression in Paravertebral Muscles
JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Background The dysfunction of paravertebral muscles may contribute to the development of idiopathic scoliosis. Several candidate genes have been linked to scoliosis, but the underlying mechanisms and cell types remain unclear. Methods We initially included 40 idiopathic scoliosis cases and 19 controls. Muscle biopsies were obtained bilaterally

My Love Story With HIFs in the Disc: A Journey to the Humboldt Research Award
JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT The intervertebral disc is a prime example of tissue adaptation to metabolic and mechanical extremes. As the largest avascular organ in the human body, the disc and the central nucleus pulposus (NP) endure constant compressive loading while sustaining a hypoxic, relatively acidic, and hyperosmotic microenvironment that would be inhospitable to

National Trends and Risk Factors for Dysphagia After Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion
The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 9, Page 3918-3931, September 2026.From 2016 to 2023, inpatient anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) volume declined 52.2% while postoperative dysphagia rates increased 11.4% annually. Analysis of 496,425 cases demonstrated that dysphagia risk varied markedly by surgical indication, with cervical diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, cervical spine fracture, and ...

Growth Hormone Receptor Antagonism Extends Lifespan
Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 9, September 2026.This study provides proof of concept that GH antagonism in GH‐producing mice extends lifespan, supporting further investigation of GH antagonists as potential anti‐aging interventions in animals and humans. ABSTRACT Interventions that disrupt growth hormone (GH) action are recognized as some of the most potent methods for extending lifespan ...
