Intervertebral Disc Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Changes After Spinal Manipulative Therapy for Lumbar Discogenic Pain.
Cureus
October 2024
Department of Radiology, Logan University, Chesterfield, USA.
This study investigates the use of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to identify the intervertebral disc (IVD) as a pain generator, explore the pathophysiology of the biochemical and structural components of discogenic low back pain (DLBP), and present potential evidence of physiological responses to spinal manipulation therapy (SMT). A 29-year-old male presented with uncomplicated low back pain (LBP). The non-specific presentation and clinical examination findings were consistent with an initial working diagnosis of non-specific LBP with the clinician suspecting IVD as a likely pain generator.

Objective: The purpose of this case report was to describe the treatment of an older veteran with chronic low back pain, utilizing flexion-distraction as a primary intervention for management.
Clinical Features: A 67-year-old man with chronic low back pain for several decades presented to the chiropractic clinic for evaluation. He reported low back pain that extended into the right lower extremity intermittently.
Conservative management of neck and thoracic pain in an adult with neurofibromatosis-1.
J Can Chiropr Assoc

Chiropractic Department, D'Youville College.
Objective: To describe the case of a 21-year-old female with previously diagnosed neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) with neck, scapular, lumbar, and temporomandibular discomfort along with headaches.
Clinical Features: The patient had chronic tightness and pain in the cervicothoracic region as well as pain in the lumbar spine at the site of prior neurofibroma removal. Radiographs demonstrated multilevel osseous changes.
Temporal Progression of Acute Spinal Cord Injury Mechanisms in a Rat Model: Contusion, Dislocation, and Distraction.
J Neurotrauma

Department of Orthopedics, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Traumatic spinal cord injuries (SCIs) occur due to different spinal column injury patterns, including burst fracture, dislocation, and flexion-distraction. Pre-clinical studies modeling different SCI mechanisms have shown distinct histological differences between these injuries both acutely (3 h and less) and chronically (8 weeks), but there remains a temporal gap. Different rates of injury progression at specific regions of the spinal cord may provide insight into the pathologies that are initiated by specific SCI mechanisms.

University of Jaén, Department of Health Sciences, Jaén, Spain.
Objectives: To determine the short-term effects of a modified Flexion-Distraction (FD) technique in comparison with a high-velocity low-back spinal manipulation (HVLA-SM) protocol on patients suffering from chronic low-back pain (CLBP).
Design And Methods: A randomized controlled trial. The sample was composed of 150 patients suffering from CLBP, who were randomly assigned to either a FD (n = 75) or a HVLA-SM (n = 75) group.
