LncRNA-MIAT regulates the growth of SHSY5Y cells by regulating the miR-34-5p-SYT1 axis and exerts a neuroprotective effect in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease.

To examine the neuroprotective roles of lncRNA-MIAT in Parkinson's disease (PD). RNA sequencing expression profiles were utilized to screen the dysregulated lncRNAs in patients with PD and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms by which the lncRNAs regulate the pathogenesis of PD. 6-hydroxydopamine-induced SH-SY5Y cell lines and a PD mouse model were used to prove how the overexpressing or knocking-down of MIAT produce a marked effect in both and experiments.

Comparison between gravity drainage group and suction drainage group after cervical laminoplasty: a retrospective STROBE-compliant cohort study.

Objectives: A retrospective study was conducted to compare gravity drainage and suction drainage after cervical laminoplasty.

Patients And Methods: A total of 375 patients who underwent laminoplasty between January 2011 and December 2015 were engaged in this analysis. We investigated the patients' basic characteristics, drainage characteristics and postoperative complications.

Predictor of Surgical Outcomes in Ankylosing Spondylitis Cervical Spinal Fracture: An At Least 2 Years Follow-Up Retrospective Study.

Study Design: Retrospective study.

Objective: A retrospective study was conducted to clarify the prognostic factors of postoperative for cervical spine fractures patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).

Summary Of Background Data: Now the high probability of cervical fractures in patients with AS is unanimously recognized.

Transdural Approach to Resection of Intraspinal Extradural Ventral Cysts in the Lumbar Spine.

Background: Intraspinal extradural ventral cysts in the lumbar spine can cause back pain and neurological deficits of the lower extremities. For the resection of this type of space-occupying lesion, the transdural approach has not been reported in the literature.

Case Description: A 66-year-old man presented, suffering from progressive radiation pain of his bilateral lower extremities.

Risk factors of postoperative low back pain for low-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis: a retrospective study.

Objective: To investigate the risk factors of postoperative low back pain (LBP) following posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) surgery for low-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS).

Methods: This retrospective study enrolled patients with IS that underwent PLIF between January 2011 and January 2016. Demographic, clinical, surgical and radiological characteristics were analysed to determine associations between these characteristics and LBP as measured using a visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score.
