Characterisation of spinal ligaments in the embryonic chick
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Use of the embryonic chick provides an opportunity to examine the maturation of spinal ligaments during development, to inform anatomical defects in the spine. Abstract Ligaments are important connective tissues within the musculoskeletal system that connect bone to bone and provide support and stability.

Exhaustion of nucleus pulposus progenitor cells with ageing and degeneration of the intervertebral disc. [PDF]
, 2012 Despite the high prevalence of intervertebral disc disease, little is known about changes in intervertebral disc cells and their regenerative potential with ageing and intervertebral disc degeneration.

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1464-1477, May 2025.This study compares the biomechanical effects of three anterior fixation systems in thoracolumbar surgery—HXTL, NHXTL, and Medtronic's CD Horizon ANTERIOR. Finite element analysis evaluates stress and displacement across vertebral bodies and support structures under varying load conditions. Results indicate the HXTL system minimizes nail–rod stress yet

Orthopaedic 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 ...

Degenerative cervical spine disease – pathogenesis and symptoms
Studia Medyczne, 2020 Cervical discopathy is a degenerative process in the intervertebral disc and the structure of the fibrous ring. Due to the processes of proteoglycan breakdown and collagen structure, the nucleus pulposus is dehydrated and susceptible to the damaging ...

Percutaneous disc decompression with nucleoplasty-volumetry of the nucleus pulposus using ultrahigh-field MRI. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 PURPOSE: To evaluate changes in nucleus pulposus volume as a potential parameter for the effects of disc decompression. METHODS: Fifty-two discs (T8 to L1) were extracted from 26 pigs and separated into thoracic (T8 to T11) and thoracolumbar discs (T12 ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.Anterior cervical V‐shaped osteotomy and fusion (ACVF) is a procedure for posterior vertebral body decompression. Undamaged anterior vertebral endplate is assured for implant fixation, while adjacent intervertebral spaces were connected, proving complete decompression. Four patients who underwent ACVF had improved symptoms, an unimpaired fusion process,
