The objective of the present experimental study was to gain a better understanding of the foraging activity of Asellus aquaticus during fish egg incubation. A. aquaticus were introduced into experimental setups of dead eggs, viable eggs and hatched larvae of zebrafish (Danio rerio), a commonly used model organism.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study utilized 3D simulation software and CT scans to evaluate the placement of multiple screws in the C2 vertebra, focusing on the combination of pedicle and laminar screws.
  • - Researchers found that in 85% of cases, up to four screws could be securely placed, while 11% of cases allowed for three screws, highlighting successful insertion without interference.
  • - The findings suggest that achieving multiple screw fixation in the C2 vertebra is feasible in 96% of patients, indicating a promising approach for spinal stabilization in complex cases.

Introduction: Postoperative surgical site infection remains one of the major complications after spinal surgery. IntraSPINE (intraspine) is a dynamic intralaminar device introduced by Cousin Biotech and is indicated for the surgical treatment of lumbar spine disorders. There are no reports on delayed surgical site infection (SSI) after lumbar surgery using this device.

Background: The radiological complications including correction loss and hardware failure of short segment posterior pedicle screw fixation in the treatment of unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures remain a main concern. Several procedures aiming to reinforce the anterior column have been introduced to solve these limitations, including transforaminal interbody fusion (TIF). The purposes of this study were to evaluate the radiological complications of short-segment pedicle screw fixation in combination with transforaminal interbody fusion in the treatment of unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures.
