Deletion of a Pax1 Sex‐Associated Genomic Region Associated With Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Leads to Disc Degeneration, Instability, and Vertebral Rotation in Mice

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Overview of the effects of Pax1‐SAR deletion on gene expression, IVD degeneration, and resultant scoliotic‐like curvature between sexes. Proposed mechanism of sex‐dependent changes in gene expression in females (right) and males (left), resulting in sex‐dependent disc degeneration and scoliotic phenotypes.

Distal Adding‐On After Selective Thoracolumbar/Lumbar Fusion for Lenke 5C AIS: The Role of Proximal Coronal Construct Position and Postoperative UIV Translation

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1191-1202, June 2026.
In 74 Lenke 5C AIS patients undergoing selective thoracolumbar/lumbar fusion, distal adding‐on occurred in 18 (24%) at ≥ 2‐year follow‐up. Multivariable analysis identified postoperative upper instrumented vertebra translation as an independent factor associated with adding‐on, highlighting the importance of construct‐level coronal alignment beyond LIV

Increasing pelvic incidence is associated with more global sagittal imbalance in ankylosing spondylitis with thoracolumbar kyphosis: an observational retrospective study of 94 cases

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients with kyphosis have an abnormal spinopelvic alignment and pelvic morphology. Most studies focus on the relationship of pelvic tilt (PT) or sacral slope (SS) and deformity, and relatively few studies have ...

Risk Factors and Clinical Significance for Retrolisthesis of Adjacent Segment After Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 958-966, May 2026.
Preoperative degeneration of endplates, facet joints, and paraspinal muscles, along with intraoperative facet violation, are key predictors of retrolisthesis after TLIF, leading to worse pain and functional outcomes. ABSTRACT Objective Adjacent segment retrolisthesis is a common yet frequently overlooked complication after lumbar fusion, which may lead
