Background And Purpose:
Pain intensity is the most frequently assessed health domain in clinical studies among patients with low-back pain. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and Numeric rating scale (NRS) have been the mostly used measurement tools for pain intensity. We proposed to correlate these instruments to a generic health-related quality of life measurement tool in order to show the scale with superior clinical relevance.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAneurysmal bone cysts are benign but locally aggressive bone tumours, most often affecting children and young adults. In this case report, we present the clinical picture of a 15-year-old boy with progressive, chronic back pain. An MRI of thoracic spine confirmed a T2 cystic spinal tumour.

Methods: We used a convenience, cross-sectional sampling of patients recruited at our neurosurgical institution. The participants completed paper-pencil version of the PROMIS-29 profile in addition to validated legacy questionnaires, including the Oswestry disability index, Research and Development Corporation 36-item short-form survey, 7-item general anxiety disorder scale, 9-item patient health questionnaire.

Aims: During the progress of oncological diseases, there is an increased probability that spinal metastases may develop, requiring personalised treatment options. Risk calculator systems aim to provide assistance in the therapeutic decision-making process by estimating survival chances. The predictive ability of such calculators can be improved, thereby optimising the choice of personalised therapy.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground And Purpose: The aim of our research was to create a scoring system that predicts prognosis and recommends therapeutic options for patients with metastatic spine tumor. Increasing oncological treatment opportunities and prolonged survival have led to a growing need to address clinical symptoms caused by meta-stases of the primary tumor. Spinal metastases can cause a significant reduction in quality of life due to the caused neurological deficits.
