Dynamic Cord Compression Causing Cervical Myelopathy [PDF]

open access: yesNeurospine, 2019
Due to the highly mobile nature of the cervical spine, and the fact that most magnetic resonance imagings (MRIs) and computed tomography scans are obtained only in one single position, dynamic cord compression can be an elusive diagnosis that is often ...

Spinal involvement in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome): presentation, diagnosis and management. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome, is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GALNS). MPS IVA is multisystemic but manifests

Chronic thoracic hemisection spinal cord injury in adult rats induces a progressive decline in transmission from uninjured fibers to lumbar motoneurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Although most spinal cord injuries are anatomically incomplete, only limited functional recovery has been observed in people and rats with partial lesions.

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

Genome-wide gene expression profiling of stress response in a spinal cord clip compression injury model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundThe aneurysm clip impact-compression model of spinal cord injury (SCI) is a standard injury model in animals that closely mimics the primary mechanism of most human injuries: acute impact and persisting compression.

Compression analysis of the gray and white matter of the spinal cord

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2020
The spinal cord is composed of gray matter and white matter. It is well known that the properties of these two tissues differ considerably. Spinal diseases often present with symptoms that are caused by spinal cord compression.

Pain and analgesic use associated with skeletal-related events in patients with advanced cancer and bone metastases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
PURPOSE: Bone metastases secondary to solid tumors increase the risk of skeletal-related events (SREs), including the occurrence of pathological fracture (PF), radiation to bone (RB), surgery to bone (SB), and spinal cord compression (SCC).

Effect of melatonin on the functional recovery from experimental traumatic compression of the spinal cord

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2013
Spinal cord injury is an extremely severe condition with no available effective therapies. We examined the effect of melatonin on traumatic compression of the spinal cord. Sixty male adult Wistar rats were divided into three groups: sham-operated animals

Dynamic Compression of the Spinal Cord by Paraspinal Muscles following Cervical Laminectomy: Diagnosis Using Flexion-Extension MRI

open access: yesCase Reports in Radiology, 2015
Introduction. Flexion-extension, or kinematic, MRI has been used to identify dynamic spondylotic spinal cord compression not seen with traditional static MRI.

Recommendations for the management of MPS IVA: systematic evidence- and consensus-based guidance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
IntroductionMucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA or Morquio A syndrome is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by deficiency of the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS) enzyme, which impairs lysosomal degradation of keratan ...
