No evidence of association between either Modic change or disc degeneration and five circulating inflammatory proteins

JOR SPINE, Volume 7, Issue 1, March 2024.
This study investigates the potential link between intervertebral disc degeneration, Modic changes, and low back pain (LBP) by analyzing systemic levels of inflammatory proteins. Utilizing twin data from the TwinsUK cohort, the research concludes that there is no evidence indicating an association between these structural changes and alterations in ...

First report of kyphoscoliosis in the narrow‐ridged finless porpoises (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis): Findings from congenital and degenerative cases comparison using post‐mortem computed tomography

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 2, March 2024.
This case report presents the first documented cases of kyphoscoliosis in two narrow‐ridged finless porpoises (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis) stranded in Korean waters. Both carcasses underwent post‐mortem computed tomography, revealing congenital kyphoscoliosis (CRI‐11873) and degenerative traumatic kyphoscoliosis (CRI‐11874).
