Galectin‐4: A Novel Mediator of Human Intervertebral Disc Degeneration
Galectin‐4 correlates with intervertebral disc degeneration, independent of age, sex, or underlying pathology. Functionally, it activates NF‐κB signaling and induces pro‐inflammatory and matrix‐degrading responses, with stronger effects in nucleus pulposus cells, identifying it as a novel molecular player in disc degeneration.

ABSTRACT Background Cervical arthrodesis is a common surgical technique utilized to treat many cervical spinal pathologies. The risk of re‐operation due to symptomatic adjacent segment disease (ASD) remains steady, and the cause of ASD, whether rigid fixation or disease progression, remains unknown.

National Trends and Risk Factors for Dysphagia After Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion
From 2016 to 2023, inpatient anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) volume declined 52.2% while postoperative dysphagia rates increased 11.4% annually. Analysis of 496,425 cases demonstrated that dysphagia risk varied markedly by surgical indication, with cervical diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, cervical spine fracture, and ...

Quantitative Spatiotemporal Analysis of Ultrasound Images of Fasciculations in ALS
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Fasciculations are a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), yet quantitative description of individual events on muscle ultrasound (MUS) is limited. We characterized the spatiotemporal kinematics of individual fasciculations to determine whether they differ between ALS and other neurogenic conditions.

Imaging of spinal cord compression: Magnetic resonance imaging and beyond
Imaging plays a crucial role in spinal cord compression. Routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences often detect pathological changes occurring in the cord only in the late stages of the disease process.
