Advancement in the Methods for Isolating High Quality RNA From Mouse and Rat Intervertebral Disc

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Isolating high‐quality RNA from intervertebral disc (IVD) tissue poses a challenge due to dense fibrocartilaginous extracellular matrix and naturally occurring endogenous RNases. High RNA quality is of paramount importance for accurate and reproducible molecular analyses, such as RNA sequencing.

Characterization of Ovine Intervertebral Disc Health Across the Lifespan: Relationships Between Quantitative MRI, Radiological, Histological, Biochemical, and Biomechanical Assessments

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Quantitative MRI reveals age‐related degeneration of lumbar intervertebral discs. Axial T2 and T2* relaxation time maps from representative young (15‐month) and old (130‐month) sheep demonstrate substantially higher relaxation times in young discs, particularly within the nucleus pulposus, indicating a well‐hydrated and proteoglycan‐rich matrix.

Cerebral Venous Outflow Insufficiency: A Study on Symptoms and Venous Stenosis Classification

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Cerebral venous outflow insufficiency (CVOI) predominantly consists of 10 cerebral venous congestion symptoms. Based on the traditional classification according to imaging features, this study classified CVOI into intracranial (CV), extracranial (JV), and tandem (CJV) types, which better reflect the imaging features and pathological types of patients ...

Nerve Ultrasound in Patients With Friedreich Ataxia

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 395-402, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve enlargement has been reported in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FRDA). The underlying cause remains unclear, and both inflammatory processes and dysmyelination have been suggested as potential mechanisms. This study was aimed at assessing nerve morphology with high‐resolution ultrasound, to identify and describe ...

Increased Cerebrospinal Fluid Lactate Levels in Schizophrenia and Major Depressive Disorder: NCNP Biobank Study in Japan

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 46, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study demonstrated increased cerebrospinal fluid lactate levels in Japanese patients with schizophrenia and major depressive disorder, consistent with reports from other populations. This elevation is unlikely to be primarily driven by medication and may instead reflect intrinsic alterations in brain energy metabolism.
