Quantitative radiologic criteria for the diagnosis of lumbar spinal stenosis: a systematic literature review

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2011
Background Beside symptoms and clinical signs radiological findings are crucial in the diagnosis of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). We investigate which quantitative radiological signs are described in the literature and which radilogical criteria are used

No differences in functional and clinical outcomes after rehabilitation between modified kinematic and mechanical alignment in total knee arthroplasty: A randomized controlled trial

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Despite advancements in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), patient dissatisfaction remains notably high (15%–25%). This dissatisfaction will be multifactorial, one of which may be the alignment of the components. Kinematic alignment (KA), aimed at restoring pre‐arthritic knee anatomy, is proposed as a promising alternative to mechanical ...

Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis: Redefining the heart‐brain axis

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis. Amyloidosis is a systemic disease that can directly affect the central nervous system. Furthermore, the amyloid cardiomyopathy can indirectly affect the central nervous system by inducing systemic hypoperfusion and increasing the risk of acute ischaemic stroke.

Percutaneous transforaminal full endoscopic decompression for the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background One advantage of an endoscopic approach to treating lumbar spinal stenosis is preservation of spine stability and the adjacent anatomy, and there is a decrease in adjacent segment disc degeneration. The purpose of this study was to discuss the

Newly identified intervertebral fat pad degenerates after intervertebral disc injury in a rat model of degeneration

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study characterizes a newly‐described intervertebral fat pad (IVFP) anterior to rat IVDs, with evidence for its existence in mice and human IVDs as well. In rats, the IVFP gradually degenerated following IVD injury with changes in adipocyte size and fibrous tissue infiltration, suggesting it could play a functional role in IVD health and ...
