Subtle segmental angle changes of single-level lumbar fusions and adjacent-level biomechanics: cadaveric study of optically measured disc strain

, 2022
OBJECTIVE: Changes to segmental lordosis at a single level may affect adjacent-level biomechanics and overall spinal alignment with an iatrogenic domino effect commonly seen in adult spinal deformity.

Effect of Keeping Caspar Retractor During Prestige LP Cervical Disc Implantation on Intra‐ and Postoperative Outcomes

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the effect of retaining the Caspar retractor during Prestige LP implantation in cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA). Although the manufacturer recommends removal, removal caused vertebral instability during endplate drilling/cutting. Retaining the retractor reduced angle fluctuations, implantation time, and fluoroscopy usage, though ...

Association Between Conservative Treatment Modalities and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Lumbosacral Disc Herniation Following Short Term and Long Term Treatments: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Lumbar disc herniation (LDH), a leading cause of low back pain, necessitates effective conservative management to mitigate surgical interventions. This retrospective observational study evaluated the short‐term (6 months–2 years) and long‐term (3–6 years) efficacy of conservative therapies in 194 LDH patients from Iran ...

The Effect of Single Level and Multilevel Cervical Fusion on Adjacent Segment Motion: A Biomechanical Analysis

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cervical arthrodesis is a common surgical technique utilized to treat many cervical spinal pathologies. The risk of re‐operation due to symptomatic adjacent segment disease (ASD) remains steady, and the cause of ASD, whether rigid fixation or disease progression, remains unknown.

Human In Vivo Disc Mechanics in Flexion, Extension, and Diurnal Loading With Aging and Degeneration

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The intervertebral disc serves a critical role in spine function, but with aging and degeneration the disc undergoes changes that alter disc mechanics, and degeneration is often implicated in low back pain. The objective of this study was to quantify and evaluate the impact of aging and degeneration on in vivo lumbar disc mechanics ...

The Effect of Head‐Forward Posture on Lower Neck Loads and Dislocation Risk in Head‐First Impact: A Computational and Experimental Investigation

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Subaxial cervical facet dislocation (CFD) is a severe neck injury associated with head‐first impact (HFI). However, CFD has not been reliably reproduced in experimental or numerical studies, limiting understanding of its underlying mechanics.

Advances in FGF/FGFR Signaling: Implications for Disease and Therapy

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
The FGF/FGFR signaling is indispensable for the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and governs multiple biological processes, including embryonic development, bone metabolism, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis, whereas aberrant hyperactivation of this pathway drives the progression of malignancies and autoimmune disorders, including inflammatory ...
