Article Synopsis
- This study compared the short-term clinical outcomes of two types of minimally invasive spine surgeries: transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) and endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion (Endo-LIF) in patients with two-segment lumbar degenerative disease.
- The study involved 30 patients, with key metrics recorded post-surgery, such as surgery time, costs, blood loss, recovery, and pain scores, showing significant findings like shorter operation time and lower costs for MIS-TLIF, but less intraoperative bleeding for Endo-LIF.
- Results indicated no major differences in recovery and pain outcomes between groups except for lower back pain scores at one day post-op in
Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of two treatments for Stage III Kummell's disease, percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP), specifically looking at non-neurological cases.
- A comparative analysis was performed on 53 patients treated with either PVP (25 patients) or PKP (28 patients), measuring factors like surgery duration, cement volume, and patient pain/disability scores.
- Results indicated that while both methods improved patient conditions, PKP had longer surgeries and higher cement volumes but lower leakage rates and greater improvements in vertebral height and spinal alignment over time compared to PVP.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the risk factors for postoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with traumatic spinal fractures complicated with Spinal Cord Injury(SCI). We conducted a retrospective analysis of 110 patients with traumatic spinal fractures and SCI admitted to our hospital from March 2021 to April 2024. DVT was diagnosed using ultrasound.

Methods: BMR data were obtained from a large genome-wide association study (GWAS) database, while IVDD data were derived from the FinnGen project.
