Macrophage Lipid Homeostasis Drives IVDD via a Senescence‐Dependent Impairment of Efferocytosis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) has been a leading cause of low back pain and lacks disease‐modifying therapies. Although dysregulated disc lipid metabolism is implicated, its impact on the immune microenvironment, particularly macrophages, remains unknown.

The impact of disc degeneration on the dynamic characteristics of the lumbar spine: a finite element analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
The dynamics of disc degeneration was analyzed to determine the effect of disc degeneration at the L4-L5 segment on the dynamic characteristics of the total lumbar spine. A three-dimensional nonlinear finite element model of the L1-S1 normal lumbar spine

Ammonia Accumulation Drives Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Triggering Ammonia‐Induced Cell Death Through Lysosome–Mitochondria Crosstalk

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Mechanical strain disrupts the lysosome‐mitochondria axis via GLS1‐mediated ammonia toxicity, causing NP cell death and ECM breakdown in IVDD. CB839‐mediated GLS1 inhibition effectively rescues cellular homeostasis and alleviates disc degeneration.

Coexisting cervical and lumbar disc degeneration and associated MRI phenotypes: a large-scale population-based study

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: It remains unknown whether lumbar disc degeneration and patterns therein along with associated lumbar phenotypes (e.g. Modic changes, disc bulge/extrusion) are associated with coexisting cervical degenerative findings on magnetic resonance ...

Musculoskeletal health among adults with cerebral palsy: A systematic review

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To describe the burden of, and investigate prognostic factors for, osteoarthritis, osteopenia and/or osteoporosis, spondylosis, and fracture, and to investigate the effectiveness of protocols for monitoring musculoskeletal disorders and interventions for managing osteoarthritis in adults with cerebral palsy (CP).

Cumulative effects of lifelong systemic excess growth hormone on postcranial skeletal morphology in adult mice

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our μCT‐based pilot study reveals size and shape disparity in the adult postcranial skeleton of growth‐hormone model (bGH) mice relative to wild‐type mice. bGH mice have larger and more sexually dimorphic bones, with a systemic radiodensity increase in bony sesamoids and associated, but typically uncalcified, soft tissues.

Human dissection and comparative anatomy: Archaeological evidence for nineteenth‐century anatomical practice at University College London

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Excavation at University College London revealed more than 8700 human skeletal fragments representing at least 38 individuals, alongside over 800 animal remains. Features consistent with dissection, specimen preparation and curation provide evidence for the use of human and animal material in nineteenth‐century anatomical education, offering rare ...

Neuroanatomy education through the years: Revisiting the teaching slides used by Sir Wilfrid Edward Le Gros Clark

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This paper examines the life and legacy of British anatomist Sir Wilfrid Le Gros Clark through his neuroanatomical teaching collection at the University of Oxford. The authors catalogued 103 specimens and analyzed selected slides—including cases of multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, tabes dorsalis, syringomyelia, and the pineal gland's ...

Factors and Experiences Associated With Unscheduled Hospital Readmission After Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion: A Case–Controlled Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1389-1396, May 2025.
The research utilized a case–control approach to contrast patients experiencing unscheduled readmissions with those undergoing planned readmissions due to staged surgery. Findings indicated a 3.88% rate of unscheduled readmissions, mainly linked to adjacent segment disease, with 3.35% necessitating reoperation.

Establishing a Staging System for Adjacent Segment Disease and Exploring Its Significance in Guiding Surgical Decisions: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1418-1432, May 2025.
Developed a staging system for adjacent segment disease based on degeneration characteristics. Verified the feasibility and reliability of stage‐guided surgical decision‐making through surgical data, radiological data, and follow‐up data. This staging system was closely correlated with intervertebral disc degeneration and disc height while also ...
