Analysis of Risk Factors for Adjacent Segment Disease After Lumbar Facet Joint Fusion

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 433-442, March 2026.
This schematic illustrates a novel posterior lumbar fusion procedure targeting L4–L5 segments, with emphasis on the position of split bone and the precise site of bone grafting. Featuring “active generation + real‐time verification” and intact posterior tension band, this technique achieves precise segmental lordosis restoration with enhanced ...

Radiologic Insights: Diagnosing Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae. Systematic Review of the Literature

Pain Practice, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The lumbosacral transitional vertebra (LSTV) has been studied since 1876, with Castellvi developing a classification in 1984 based on its anatomy and laterality. It often goes unnoticed, or its diagnosis is limited to a lumbar spine X‐ray for confirmation. This has led to LSTV being underdiagnosed or even ignored.

Adjacent disc and facet joint degeneration in young adults with low-grade spondylolytic spondylolisthesis: A magnetic resonance imaging study

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2015
Premature adjacent-level degeneration has been attributed to vertebral fusion, but spondylolisthesis has not been reported as a pathological factor responsible for the degeneration of adjacent disc and facet joint.

Acetylation Regulates ACSL4 Degradation Through Chaperone‐Mediated Autophagy to Alleviate Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Intervertebral disc degeneration is triggered by ACSL4 accumulation‐mediated ferroptosis of nucleus pulposus cells due to CMA dysfunction. KAT2B promotes ACSL4 degradation via CMA through acetylation. AAV‐mediated LAMP2A delivery or engineered exosomes rescue nucleus pulposus cell senescence and disc degeneration.
