Bisphosphonate's and Intermittent Parathyroid Hormone's Effect on Human Spinal Fusion: A Systematic Review of the Literature. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
There has been a conscious effort to address osteoporosis in the aging population. As bisphosphonate and intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) therapy become more widely prescribed to treat osteoporosis, it is important to understand their effects on ...

Mendelian randomization analysis identifies HLA‐A and AP2M1 as genetic biomarkers linked to immune–endocytic crosstalk in intervertebral disc degeneration

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 1, March 2026.
HLA‐A and AP2M1 are identified as key endocytosis‐related biomarkers that modulate immune–endocytic crosstalk via mTOR signaling to regulate cell survival, immune infiltration, and the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration. Abstract Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a major contributor to chronic spinal disorders, yet the role of ...

Biomechanical response of decompression alone in lower grade lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis--A finite element analysis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Previous studies have demonstrated the clinical efficacy of decompression alone in lower-grade spondylolisthesis. A higher rate of surgical revision and a lower rate of back pain relief was also observed.

Biomechanical Analysis and Injury Prediction in Pilots With Lumbar Spondylolysis Under Different Seat Inclination Angles

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
The biomechanical responses of three lumbar models under both seat angles remain below injury thresholds. However, the occurrence of spondylolysis at a 22° angle poses a higher risk. ABSTRACT Background This study aims to quantify the biomechanical effects of different seat inclinations on the normal and spondylolysis lumbar of pilots under typical ...

The effect of iliac crest autograft on the outcome of fusion in the setting of degenerative spondylolisthesis: a subgroup analysis of the Spine Patient Outcomes Research Trial (SPORT). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: There is considerable controversy about the long-term morbidity associated with the use of posterior autologous iliac crest bone graft for lumbar spine fusion procedures compared with the use of bone-graft substitutes.

Characterization of Ovine Intervertebral Disc Health Across the Lifespan: Relationships Between Quantitative MRI, Radiological, Histological, Biochemical, and Biomechanical Assessments

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Quantitative MRI reveals age‐related degeneration of lumbar intervertebral discs. Axial T2 and T2* relaxation time maps from representative young (15‐month) and old (130‐month) sheep demonstrate substantially higher relaxation times in young discs, particularly within the nucleus pulposus, indicating a well‐hydrated and proteoglycan‐rich matrix.

Isthmic spondylolisthesis

open access: yesNeurosurgical Focus, 2002
Isthmic spondylolisthesis, which is demonstrated in 4 to 8% of the general population, is one of the most common types of spondylolisthesis. The three subtypes of this condition all manifest some variation of a pars interarticularis defect as a result of recurrent injury to that structure.
