AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Surgery for metastatic tumor is usually a palliative surgery, especially for spinal metastases, due to their anatomical localization. Surgical procedure should be accurately established to have simple outcomes and to start adjuvant treatment as soon as clinically possible. Therapeutic strategy should proceed after multidisciplinary consultation meeting (RCP). The main risk of spinal bone metastases is neurological, hence this surgery should be most commonly preventive. Its main objective is to improve patient's quality of life.

Engineered Extracellular Vesicles from Antler Blastema Progenitor Cells: A Therapeutic Choice for Spinal Cord Injury.
ACS Nano

Department of Orthopaedics, Xijing Hospital, The Fourth Military Medical University, Xi'an 710032, P.R. China.
Deer antler blastema progenitor cells (ABPCs) are promising for regenerative medicine due to their role in annual antler regeneration, the only case of complete organ regeneration in mammals. ABPC-derived signals show great potential for promoting regeneration in tissues with limited natural regenerative ability. Our findings demonstrate the capability of extracellular vesicles from ABPCs (EVs) to repair spinal cord injury (SCI), a condition with low regenerative capacity.

Introduction: The aim of this article is to present the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to unilateral posterior vertical insufficiency.
Material And Methods: The authors describe the management protocol.
Results: Posterior vertical insufficiency (PVI) manifests clinically as obliquity of the maxillo-mandibular occlusal plane and bicommissural line, and deviation of the chin.
[The value of studying the cervical spine in craniofacial asymmetries].
Orthod Fr

5 rue Georges Meynieu, 44300 Nantes, France
Introduction: The relationship between facial asymmetry and cervical anomaly is rarely mentioned in the diagnosis of dento-maxillo-facial orthopaedics. It is regrettable that the study of the cervical spine is often ignored in the etio-pathogenesis of these dysmorphoses, particularly in cases of facial asymmetry.
Objective: The aim is twofold: to encourage orthodontists and maxillofacial surgeons to make a systematic study of the cervical spine in craniofacial dysmorphoses and in particular craniofacial asymmetries, without claiming that they are becoming specialists in cervical spine pathology, and to introduce the necessary training in malformations of this anatomical region as part of the orthodontist specialisation curriculum.
The relationship between non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratio and bone mineral density: an NHANES study.
Front Nutr

Department of Spinal and Spinal Cord, Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jinan, Shandong, China.
Background: The non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHHR) is a newly developed lipid parameter. However, the current research has only explored the relationship with lumbar spine bone mineral density, lacking studies on bone mineral density at other sites, total body bone mineral density, and an analysis of risk factors. This study aims to determine the potential association between NHHR and lumbar BMD, increase awareness of the impact of lipid levels on bone health.

Background: Rapid kilovolt (kV)-switching dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) has been increasingly applied to the measurement of lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) in humans and animal models. The objective of this study was to investigate the optimal parameters for the measurement of vertebral BMD. The BMD of the spinal model was measured by means of DECT in combination with different noise index (NI) and preset adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction Veo (ASiR-V) levels.
