Designing a New Method for Measuring Lumbar Lordosis

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Qum, 2015
Background and Objectives: Given that the lumbar region is an area of great importance in the spinal cord, and any deviation in its curvature and surrounding soft tissues is one of the major causes of back pain; therefore, existence of a valid and ...

Measurement of Spinal Sagittal Curvatures using the Laser Triangulation Method [PDF]

, 2012
The purpose of the first part of the study was to establish the variability of repeated measurements in different measuring conditions. In the second part, we performed in a large number of patients, a measurement of thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis

Non‐RASopathy Genetic Syndromes Identified as the Molecular Cause of Disease in Patients Previously Diagnosed With Noonan Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 3, Page 661-672, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by typical facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, and developmental delays. While variants in genes such as PTPN11, SOS1, and RAF1 account for most genetically confirmed cases, diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic overlap ...

Biomechanical Analysis and Injury Prediction in Pilots With Lumbar Spondylolysis Under Different Seat Inclination Angles

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
The biomechanical responses of three lumbar models under both seat angles remain below injury thresholds. However, the occurrence of spondylolysis at a 22° angle poses a higher risk. ABSTRACT Background This study aims to quantify the biomechanical effects of different seat inclinations on the normal and spondylolysis lumbar of pilots under typical ...

A feasibility study of functional preservation in craniospinal irradiation with photon for pediatric medulloblastoma

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Background Craniospinal irradiation (CSI) is essential for treating pediatric medulloblastoma (MB) but causes significant long‐term toxicities. Existing dose‐reduction or partial‐sparing strategies improve neurocognitive outcomes but may compromise survival or fail to address other late effects.

A Confirmatory Case of Severe Spondylocostal Dysostosis Caused by Biallelic Loss‐of‐Function of DMRT2

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 2, Page 496-501, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Spondylocostal dysostosis (SCDO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal development of the axial skeleton, resulting in malformations of the vertebrae and ribs that often impair lung development and lead to significant respiratory morbidity.

Rare DMD Gene Duplication in a Lebanese Child With Duchene Muscular Dystrophy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A five‐year‐old boy with clinical features of Duchenne muscular dystrophy was found to have a rare de novo DMD exon 2–9 duplication. Reporting such atypical duplications improves genotype–phenotype interpretation and highlights the need for multidisciplinary care, particularly in resource‐limited settings.

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

Engineering 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.
