Endoscopic decompression for lumbar spinal canal stenosis: A technical note

open access: yesJournal of Spinal Surgery, 2022
Laminectomy and fusion were surgical options to decompress neural structures and provide more space for the spinal cord in a stenosis patient with severe leg pain and progressive neurologic signs, such as numbness and weakness.

Body Biofluids for Minimally‐Invasive Diagnostics: Insights, Challenges, Emerging Technologies, and Clinical Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Recent advances in diagnostics have accelerated the development of miniaturized wearable technologies for the continuous monitoring of diseases. This paradigm is shifting healthcare away from invasive, centralized blood tests toward decentralized monitoring, using alternative body biofluids.

Relationship Between the Development of the Spinal Canal and the Etiopathogenesis of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
INTRODUCTION: The presence of a pre-existing narrow spinal canal may have an important place in the ethiopathogenesis of lumbar spinal stenosis. By consequence the study of the development of the spinal canal is crucial. The first goal of this work is to

Repurposing of Chemokine Antagonists for Combined Phase‐Resolved Spinal Cord Injury Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals is accompanied by a massive cytokine storm in cerebrospinal fluid, mainly driven by CXCL1, IL‐6, and CCL2‐5. Sub‐acute phase is mostly associated with IL‐2, IL‐7, CCL22, and CX3CL1, whereas TNFα and IL17α permanently persists in CNS even weeks following SCI.

Computer simulation of syringomyelia in dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Syringomyelia is a pathological condition in which fluid-filled cavities (syringes) form and expand in the spinal cord. Syringomyelia is often linked with obstruction of the craniocervical junction and a Chiari malformation, which is similar in both ...

Revising Fascial Anatomy With a Focus on the Fusion Fascia in Mesenteric Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This review critically reassesses our prior hypothesis and proposes a revised anatomical model of the fusion fascia that is broadly applicable to GI cancer surgeries grounded in the principles of mesenteric resection. Our synthesis suggests that the fusion fascia is neither a dense connective tissue membrane nor a remnant of mesothelial fusion, but ...

Three-dimensional simulation of the lumbar spine under lumbar spinal stenosis with different sizes of spinal canal

open access: yesPartial Differential Equations in Applied Mathematics
In this paper, we investigate the effect of body weight on the lumbar spine with different spinal canal sizes when humans bend down by using the finite element method. Lumbar spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal.

Non‐RASopathy Genetic Syndromes Identified as the Molecular Cause of Disease in Patients Previously Diagnosed With Noonan Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by typical facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, and developmental delays. While variants in genes such as PTPN11, SOS1, and RAF1 account for most genetically confirmed cases, diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic overlap ...

TARDBP (TDP‐43) Knock‐in Zebrafish Display a Late‐Onset Motor Phenotype and Loss of Large Spinal Cord Motor Neurons

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Mutations in TARDBP (encoding TDP‐43) are associated with the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and include familial missense mutations where there are a lack of models and mechanisms examining how they are pathogenic.
