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 ...

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.

Comparison Between Interlaminar and Transforaminal Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy for Sciatic Scoliosis Secondary to Lumbar Disc Herniation: A Retrospective Study With a Minimum 1 Year Follow‐Up

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
In this study, we aimed to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of interlaminar endoscopic lumbar discectomy (IELD) and transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD) in patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) with sciatic scoliosis, an area where evidence is limited and clinical decision‐making remains challenging ...

The Influence of Height‐Adjusted Nutritional Status Assessment on Complications Following Growing‐Rod Surgery for Early‐Onset Scoliosis

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Adjusting BMI using the Ylikoski formula provides a more accurate nutritional assessment for early‐onset scoliosis patients. Preoperative malnutrition, and undergoing three or more surgeries are risk factors significantly associated with increased postoperative complications following traditional growing‐rod surgery.

Systemic Physiological Impact on Cervical Bone Quality Measurements: A Comparative Analysis of Cervical Vertebral Bone Quality Scores and Hounsfield Units

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study enrolled 512 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy to compare the physiological impacts on C‐VBQ score and C‐HU. The correlations of bilirubin and glucose metabolism indicators with both indices were stronger at the C4/5 segment and in female patients, and the C‐VBQ score appeared to be more sensitive to physiological factors than C ...

Effects of 14 days of head‐down bed rest with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bed rest accelerates bone loss and may exacerbate skeletal fragility. This study examined the effects of 14 days of head‐down tilt bed rest (HDBR) with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery, on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults. Twenty‐two healthy older adults (55–65 years) completed the HDBR protocol.
