Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Posterior Spinal Fusion for Severe Kyphosis in a Child with Gaucher Disease: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Surgeries
Background: Skeleton involvement is one of the most significant aspects of Gaucher disease (GD). However, the treatment for spinal involvement in GD among patients undergoing enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is poorly characterized.

The Temporal Expression of Adipokines During Spinal Fusion [PDF]

, 2017
Background Context Adipokines are secreted by white adipose tissue and have been associated with fracture healing. Our goal was to report the temporal expression of adipokines during spinal fusion in an established rabbit model.

ALS With and Without Upper Motor Neuron Signs: A Comparative Study Supporting the Gold Coast Criteria

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Gold Coast criteria permit diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) even without upper motor neuron (UMN) signs. However, whether ALS patients with UMN signs (ALSwUMN) and those without (ALSwoUMN) share similar characteristics and prognoses remains unclear.

COMPLICATIONS IN SPINAL FUSION

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1998
Complications in spinal fusion can lead to less than desirable results. The complications of spinal fusion in the cervical and lumbar spine are discussed. Methods of avoiding and correcting complications also are reviewed. Through a better understanding, it is hoped that complications can be prevented.

Polyetheretherketone as a Biomaterial for Spinal Applications [PDF]

, 2006
Threaded lumbar interbody spinal fusion devices (TIBFD) made from titanium have been reported to be 90% effective for single-level lumbar interbody fusion, although radiographic determination of fusion has been intensely debated in the literature.

Relationship between thoracic kyphosis and neural axis abnormalities in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose:Previous studies have suggested an association between increased thoracic kyphosis and neural axis abnormalities in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). However, the basis for this finding is unclear, and this association has been
