Validity of flexicurve and motion capture for measurements of thoracic kyphosis vs standing radiographic measurements

open access: yesJOR Spine, 2020
Thoracic kyphosis varies among healthy adults and typically increases with age. Excessive kyphosis (hyperkyphosis) is associated with negative health.

Robot‐Assisted Stereotactic Osteotomy Technique for Correcting Thoracolumbar Kyphotic Deformity in Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Technical Note

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The robot‐assisted stereotactic osteotomy (RASO) technique enables quantitative wedge planning and reproducible stereotactic execution for rigid ankylosing spondylitis–related kyphotic deformity, demonstrating technical feasibility and acceptable perioperative safety.

From Culture to Sequencing: Evolving Strategies for the Diagnosis of Pediatric Spondylodiscitis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Diagnostic approaches to pediatric spondylodiscitis have evolved from culture‐based methods with limited sensitivity to advanced molecular and sequencing technologies. Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) enables rapid, culture‐independent pathogen identification, improving diagnostic accuracy, guiding therapy, and reducing invasive procedures

Efficacy of Percutaneous Kyphoplasty in the Treatment of Kümmell's Disease and Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures: A Clinical Comparative Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Percutaneous kyphoplasty achieved comparable symptom and functional relief with acceptable complications in Kümmell's disease (KD) compared with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. It is effective for stage I/II KD but requires personalized strategies to optimize outcomes. ABSTRACT Objective Kümmell’s disease (KD) represents a delayed form of

Changes in Fall Risk After Total Hip Arthroplasty for Dysplastic Hip Osteoarthritis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Total hip arthroplasty reduced fall risk in patients with dysplastic hip osteoarthritis at high fall risk. Older age, low preoperative lumbar lordosis, and postoperative perceived leg length discrepancy were associated with higher postoperative fall risk.

Neuromuscular and neuromechanical assessments of respiratory performance in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy across the natural history of disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...
