Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of thoracolumbar intervertenral disk extrusions and protrusions in large breed dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It has recently been shown that the fat-derived hormone adiponectin has the ability to decrease hyperglycemia and to reverse insulin resistance. However, bacterially produced full-length adiponectin is functionally inactive. Here, we show that endogenous

Development of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Caused by Lumbar Vertebral Compression Fracture

open access: yesTürk Osteoporoz Dergisi, 2004
Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal by a combination of bone and soft tissues, which causes mechanical compression of spinal nerve roots.Diagnosis is made by computerized tomography, myelography, or magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The aim

Cervical Spinal Cord Injury in Patients with Cervical Canal Stenosis without Radiologic Evidence of Trauma: Evaluation of 15 Consecutive Cases

open access: yesBagcilar Medical Bulletin, 2017
Objective: Cervical spinal canal stenosis is a well-known risk factor for spinal cord injury. In some patients, spinal cord injury is the first symptom of spinal stenosis.

Central Canal Ependymal Cells Proliferate Extensively in Response to Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury but Not Demyelinating Lesions

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The adult mammalian spinal cord has limited regenerative capacity in settings such as spinal cord injury (SCI) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Recent studies have revealed that ependymal cells lining the central canal possess latent neural stem cell ...

Whole spinal pneumorrhachis following perforation of the rectum: A case report

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports
Spinal pneumorrhachis is a relatively rare condition. Herein, we describe a case of whole spinal pneumorrhachis. A 68-year-old male, with a history of total proctocolectomy due to ulcerative colitis, had fever, diarrhea, and inflammatory reactions ...

Do the cervical spinal canal dimensions predict pre-myelopathic changes of cervical spinal cord? - a magnetic resonance image study

open access: yesNational Journal of Clinical Anatomy, 2015
Background and aims: The cervical region is the most mobile portion of the spinal column and it is here that the earliest disc degenerations are encountered. Hence it is of great interest to neurologists and neurosurgeons.

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.
