Basal Metabolic Requirements, Biomarkers of Cardiometabolic Health, and Anthropometric Measures of Obesity in Women and Men With Restricted Growth Conditions

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 1, Page 144-154, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Population‐specific thresholds have not been defined for the levels of adiposity and systemic biomarkers that predict chronic health risks in people with restricted growth conditions. Here, anthropometric measures of adiposity, basal metabolic requirements, and fasted blood samples were obtained from adults with restricted growth (age 41 ± 14 ...

Increased lumbar puncture success using a paramedian approach: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 42-48, January 2026.
Abstract Background Lumbar puncture (LP) is frequently necessary in hospitalized patients for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Heterogeneity in Lumbar Segmental Bone Mineral Density and Age‐Related Evolution of Whole‐Body Bone Mineral Density: Comprehensive Implications for Osteoporosis Risk Assessment

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 113-125, January 2026.
The BMDs of several body regions are associated with age and sex, with variations in the rate of change, age at first change, and age‐related trends depending on the anatomical site and sex. The BMDs of L1 and L2 are generally significantly lower than those of L3 and L4.

Analgesic Efficacy of Epidural Neuroplasty via Racz Catheter During Lumbar Fixation In Situ for Lumbosacral Spondylolisthesis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesAnesthesiology Research and Practice, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Effective pain management after lumbar fixation in situ is crucial for improving recovery and quality of life. Epidural neuroplasty via the Racz catheter is a potential method to enhance analgesia by targeting epidural inflammation and nerve compression.

A New Perspective on Lumbar Disc Herniation Management Using Prone Knee Extension

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a frequent cause of low back pain and radiculopathy, often resulting in diminished functional capacity and a lower quality of life. Nonsurgical interventions are frequently sought to manage symptoms and enhance spinal stability.

Effect of aging and lumbar spondylosis on lumbar lordosis

open access: yesActa Medica International, 2018
Background: Lumbar lordosis (LL), the anterior convexity of the lumbar spine in the mid-sagittal plane, gives the spine some resilience and helps in protecting it from compressive forces because some of the force is taken by the anterior longitudinal ligaments.

Lumbar Lateral Dislocation Fracture With Progressive Worsening of Trunk Tilt in Pisa Syndrome Associated With Parkinson′s Disease

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction Parkinson′s disease rarely presents with Pisa syndrome, for which a patient may require corrective surgery because of trunk tilt. Herein, we report a case of lumbar dislocation fracture caused by minor trauma. The patient′s trunk tilt progressed, and neurological symptoms worsened, requiring surgical treatment.
