Effects of circulating inflammatory proteins on spinal degenerative diseases: Evidence from genetic correlations and Mendelian randomization study. [PDF]
MR analyses indicated the causal associations between multiple genetically predicted CIPs and the risk of four SDDs (CS, PD/SD, SCS, and spondylolisthesis/spondylolysis). This study provides reliable genetic evidence for inādepth exploration of the involvement of CIPs in the pathogenic mechanism of SDDs and provides novel potential targets for SDDs ...

Spontaneous multilevel lumbar pediculolysis associated with spondylolysis: a rare case and review of the literature [PDF]
Background Pediculolysis is bone hypertrophy and pseudoarthrosis caused by pedicle fracture and has often been combined with contralateral spondylolysis in previous reports.

Fifth Lumbar Vertebral Shape in Early-Stage Lumbar Spondylolysis: Three-Dimensional Bone Morphology Analysis Using Homologous Models [PDF]
Introduction: Fifth lumbar (L5) vertebral morphology contributes to spondylolysis. However, there are no comprehensive examinations of the three-dimensional vertebral shape in early-stage cases.

Dash-Associated Spondylolysis Hypothesis
Introduction: In past biomechanical studies, repetitive motion of lumbar extension, rotation, or a combination of both, frequently seen in batting or pitching practice in baseball, shooting practice in soccer, and spiking practice in volleyball, have ...

Prevalence of lumbar spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis in patients with degenerative spinal disease [PDF]
Lumbar spondylolysis generally occurs in adolescent athletes. Bony union can be expected with conservative treatment, however, the fracture does not heal in some cases.

Spondylolysis is a bony defect of the pars interarticularis and most often results from repetitive stress. Although spondylolysis is usually asymptomatic, symptomatic spondylolysis is the most common cause of identifiable back pain in children and adolescent athletes.

Isthmic spondylolysis results in fracture of pars interarticularis of the lumbar spine, found in as many as half of adolescent athletes with persistent low back pain. While computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of spondylolysis,

L5 spondylolysis: Anatomical study comparing healed and unhealed lesions
The anatomy and pathogenesis of spondylolysis has been widely studied; however, the microanatomy of spondylolysis of the lumbar vertebra has not been well described. Therefore, we aim to better elucidate this anatomy.
