ABSTRACT Background Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is a spinal deformity of unknown etiology that begins in the intervertebral disc and emerges during pubertal growth. In the vertebral growth plate, adjacent to the disc, powerful growth plate morphogens (GPMs) modulate this growth. We evaluated whether GPMs can also alter the capacity of annulus

Fetal Pathogenesis of Scoliosis Suggested by Asymmetry of Gene Expression in Paravertebral Muscles
ABSTRACT Background The dysfunction of paravertebral muscles may contribute to the development of idiopathic scoliosis. Several candidate genes have been linked to scoliosis, but the underlying mechanisms and cell types remain unclear. Methods We initially included 40 idiopathic scoliosis cases and 19 controls. Muscle biopsies were obtained bilaterally

Are Ceramic Cages an Option for Lumbar Interbody Fusion? A Comparative Biomechanical Numerical Study
ABSTRACT Background The treatment of severe disc pathologies through lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) involves the insertion of an interbody cage into the degenerated disc space, together with a supporting fixation system. Conventional cage materials, such as Ti6Al4V and PEEK, present several limitations, most notably their non‐biodegradability ...

ABSTRACT Background Lumbopelvic pain (LPP) is one of the most common complaints during pregnancy, with a reported prevalence of 63%. During pregnancy, treatment should preferably be non‐invasive. However, scientific evidence on non‐pharmacological interventions for pregnant women with LPP is still limited. Objective To synthesise the available evidence
