Astrocytic connexin43 phosphorylation contributes to seizure susceptibility after mild traumatic brain injury

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Astrocytic gap junctions formed by connexin43 (Cx43) help maintain brain homeostasis. After mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), total cortical Cx43 increases and redistributes toward a soluble, non‐junctional pool with elevated hemichannel activity and increased phosphorylation at serine 368 (pCx43S368).

The Cervical Vertebral Bone Quality Score Is a Novel Reliable Index Reflecting the Condition of Paraspinal Muscles and Predicting Loss of Cervical Lordosis After Open‐Door Laminoplasty

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1406-1417, May 2025.
There is a close correlation between C‐VBQ scores and the cervical deep extensors, deep flexors, and overall paraspinal muscles relative cross‐sectional area (RCSA) and degree of fat infiltration (DFF). The C‐VBQ score is a comprehensive parameter reflecting the quality of cervical bone and paraspinal muscles.

Effect of Keeping Caspar Retractor During Prestige LP Cervical Disc Implantation on Intra‐ and Postoperative Outcomes

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the effect of retaining the Caspar retractor during Prestige LP implantation in cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA). Although the manufacturer recommends removal, removal caused vertebral instability during endplate drilling/cutting. Retaining the retractor reduced angle fluctuations, implantation time, and fluoroscopy usage, though ...
