Comparative Analysis of Three Vertebral Screw Placement Directions in Anterior Thoracolumbar Fracture Surgery: A Finite Element Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic 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

Establishing a Staging System for Adjacent Segment Disease and Exploring Its Significance in Guiding Surgical Decisions: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic 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 ...

Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Arthroscopic‐Assisted Uniportal Spinal Surgery Versus Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Decompression in Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Arthroscopic‐assisted uniportal spinal surgery (AUSS), a novel minimally invasive approach, demonstrates superior clinical outcomes in managing lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), notably in achieving efficient surgery, complete neural decompression, and sustained postoperative symptom relief.

Degenerative cervical spine disease – pathogenesis and symptoms

open access: yesStudia 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 ...

Arthroscopic‐Assisted Uni‐Portal Spinal Surgery Combined With Kirschner Wire Anchoring for Cervical Spondylotic Radiculopathy: A Technical Note and Preliminary Clinical Results

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study is the first to describe the use of arthroscopic‐assisted uniportal spinal surgery (AUSS) with Kirschner‐wire anchoring in a cohort of 15 patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR). Postoperatively, patients experienced significant pain relief and marked improvement in cervical function.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

The research of transgenic human nucleus pulposus cell transplantation in the treatment of lumbar disc degeneration

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
The present study determines whether the in vivo injection of TGFβ1 and CTGF mediated by AAV2 to transfect nucleus pulposus cells in degenerative lumbar discs can reverse the biological effects of rhesus lumbar disc degeneration.

IL-1β increases asporin expression via the NF-κB p65 pathway in nucleus pulposus cells during intervertebral disc degeneration

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Disc degeneration (DD) is a multifaceted chronic process that alters the structure and function of intervertebral discs. The pathophysiology of degeneration is not completely understood, but the consensus is that changes in genes encoding extracellular ...
