Risk factors for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture: a case‒control study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Early assessment of the risk of nonunion in osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is beneficial to early clinical decision making. However, a comprehensive understanding of the risk factors for OVCF nonunion is lacking. Methods We

Association between the dietary index for gut microbiota and fracture prevalence among women aged 50 years and older: a NHANES-based study with a preliminary exploratory pilot analysis

Frontiers in Public Health
IntroductionGut microbiota has been implicated in bone metabolism, but whether a diet supporting gut microbial health is associated with fracture prevalence in older women remains unclear.

Conformal Thermoreversible Gelatin‐Based Gel for High‐Fidelity Electrophysiological Recording and Acute Peripheral Nerve Interfacing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A thermoreversible gelatin‐based gel forms a soft, conformal bioelectronic interface on complex biological surfaces. The flowable precursor penetrates hair‐dense regions, solidifies in situ, and maintains low impedance through adaptive contact and hydration retention.

Clinical diagnostic model for sciatica developed in primary care patients with low back-related leg pain.

PLoS ONE, 2018
BackgroundIdentification of sciatica may assist timely management but can be challenging in clinical practice. Diagnostic models to identify sciatica have mainly been developed in secondary care settings with conflicting reference standard selection ...

Sciatica Caused by Pseudomyxoma Peritonei [PDF]

, 2009
Many etiologies may cause sciatica, and intra-abdominal masses usually affect the lumbosacral plexus by local invasion or distal metastases. Lumbosacral plexopathy caused by compression of intra-abdominal tumors instead of invasion is rarely seen.
