AI Article Synopsis
- A study using mechanical models and spinal tests showed that using two Harrington rods for treating double curved scoliosis is more effective than using just one rod.
- The research focused on comparing the two surgical methods, taking into account their impact on spinal stability.
- The findings suggest that the dual rod approach may lead to better outcomes for patients with this condition.
Article Abstract
The simple mechanical models and experimental spinal examinations could be established that the double curved scoliosis operated with two Harrington rods and dorsal spondylodesis is better than the use of one Harrington rod.

Increased TSPO alleviates neuropathic pain by preventing pyroptosis via the AMPK-PGC-1α pathway.
J Headache Pain

Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, China.
Neuropathic pain poses a significant clinical challenge, largely due to the incomplete understanding of its molecular mechanisms, particularly the role of mitochondrial dysfunction. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that pyroptosis and inflammatory responses induced by spared nerve injury (SNI) in the spinal dorsal horn play a critical role in the initiation and persistence of neuropathic pain. Among the factors involved, TSPO (translocator protein) emerged as a key regulator.

Introduction: Interspinous devices are an alternative to instrumented fusion for the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) with radiological instability or deformity. The devices claim to improve clinical symptoms by indirect foraminal decompression with fewer complications and similar functional outcomes compared to conventional fusion techniques, and by avoiding a (further) deterioration of the anatomy of the spine while being less invasive than instrumented fusion.
Research Question: Do interspinous devices provide a benefit in combination with a decompression of degenerative LSS?
Material And Methods: In this observational study, 117 patients were treated by decompression surgery alone (n = 37), decompression plus instrumented spinal screw fixation and anterior cage support (n = 41) or decompression plus stabilisation with interspinous devices (n = 39).

Objective: Awake, endoscopic spinal fusion has been utilized as an ultra-minimally invasive surgery technique to accomplish the goals of spinal fixation, fusion, and disc height restoration. While many techniques exist for this approach, this series represents a single institution's experience with a large cohort and the evolution of this method.
Methods: The medical records of a consecutive series of 400 patients treated over a 10-year period were retrospectively reviewed.
Dorsal Intradural Extramedullary Bronchogenic Cysts: A Case Report and Comprehensive Literature Review.

Neurological Surgery, High Specialty Regional Hospital Bajio, León, MEX.
Intradural extramedullary bronchogenic cysts (IEBCs) are exceedingly rare congenital entities, composed of respiratory epithelial cells derived from the anomalous development of the embryonic foregut. Due to their exceptionally low morbidity, only limited cases are available. Consequently, the clinical features and optimal therapeutic approach remain poorly understood.
