Intraspinal neuroblastoma: Treatment options and neurological outcome of spinal cord compression

Oncology Letters, 2014
Malignant spinal cord compression (MSCC) is a common complication of cancer. Paraspinal neuroblastoma (NB) in the thoracic, abdominal and pelvic regions may extend into the neural foramina causing compression of nerve roots and even the spinal cord.

Bioprinted Constructs in the Regulatory Landscape: Current State and Future Perspectives

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprinting has rapidly emerged as a transformative technology in biomedical research, offering unprecedented potential to replicate complex tissues. Despite its promise, clinical translation remains limited due to regulatory hurdles. This review explores global regulatory frameworks, comparing approaches in the EU, U.S., China, and Australia, and ...

Epidemiological study of cervical cord compression and its clinical symptoms in community-dwelling residents.

PLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundDegenerative compressive myelopathy (DCM) is caused by cervical cord compression. The relationship between the magnitude and clinical findings of cervical cord compression has been described in the literature, but the details remain unclear ...

Inflammatory cascades mediate synapse elimination in spinal cord compression

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2014
BackgroundCervical compressive myelopathy (CCM) is caused by chronic spinal cord compression due to spondylosis, a degenerative disc disease, and ossification of the ligaments. Tip-toe walking Yoshimura (twy) mice are reported to be an ideal animal model

Evidence-based commentary on the diagnosis, management, and further research of degenerative cervical spinal cord compression in the absence of clinical symptoms of myelopathy

Frontiers in Neurology
Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) represents the final consequence of a series of degenerative changes in the cervical spine, resulting in cervical spinal canal stenosis and mechanical stress on the cervical spinal cord.

Value of Micro-CT for Monitoring Spinal Microvascular Changes after Chronic Spinal Cord Compression

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2014
Neurological degeneration can occur after compression of the spinal cord. It is widely accepted that spinal cord compression leads to ischemic lesions and ultimately neurological dysfunction due to a narrowed spinal canal.

Autonomous Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.
