Background: We previously reported inpatient and 30-day postoperative patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of a controlled, noncrossover pilot study using preoperative mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) training for lumbar spine surgery. Our goal here was to assess 3-month and 12-month postoperative PROs of preoperative MBSR in lumbar spine surgery for degenerative disease.
Methods: Intervention group participants were prospectively enrolled in a preoperative online MBSR course. A comparison standard care only group was one-to-one matched retrospectively by age, sex, surgery type, and prescription opioid use. Three-month and 12-month postoperative PROs for pain, disability, quality of life, and opioid use were compared within and between groups. Regression models were used to assess whether MBSR use predicted outcomes.
Results: Twenty-four participants were included in each group. At 3 months, follow-up was 87.5% and 95.8% in the comparison and intervention groups, respectively. In the intervention group, mean Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-Physical Function (PROMIS-PF) was significantly higher, whereas mean Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-Pain Interference (PROMIS-PI) and Oswestry Disability Index were significantly lower. The change from baseline in mean PROMIS-PF and PROMIS-PI was significantly greater than in the comparison group. At 12 months, follow-up was 58.3% and 83.3% in the comparison and intervention groups, respectively. In the intervention group, mean PROMIS-PI was significantly lower and change in mean PROMIS-PI from baseline was significantly greater. MBSR use was a significant predictor of change in PROMIS-PF at 3 months and in PROMIS-PI at 12 months. No adverse events were reported.
Conclusions: Three-month and 12-month results suggest that preoperative MBSR may have pain control benefits in lumbar spine surgery.

Study Design: Single-center retrospective cohort study.
Objective: To compare the correction of fractional curve and L5 tilt in 2RVBT versus PSF with LIV in the lumbar spine.
Summary Of Background Data: Vertebral body tethering, an AIS fusion-alternative, avoids rigid constructs, allowing for lower instrumented vertebra (LIV) selection.

Aim: Percutaneous vertebroplasty is generally considered a safe procedure, however, cases of cardioembolism and cardiac perforation have been reported.
Case Presentation: A 69-year-old woman was referred to our emergency department after an outpatient echocardiogram revealed a "thrombus-like" formation involving the right heart. Two weeks before she had undergone percutaneous vertebroplasty of the third to fifth lumbar vertebrae due to osteoporotic fractures.

Background: Lumbar degenerative diseases are an important factor in disability worldwide, and they are also common among the elderly population. Stand-Alone Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion (Stand-Alone OLIF) is a novel surgical approach for treating lumbar degenerative diseases. However, long-term follow-up after surgery has revealed the risk of endplate collapse associated with Stand-Alone OLIF procedures.

The essence of menopause is ovarian failure, decreased estrogen volatility, and deficiency leading to multiple related symptoms and an increased risk of metabolic disease in women, such as cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. This study screened 773 eligible postmenopausal and perimenopausal women from an initial pool of 1187 participants, and various physiological and biochemical indices were measured and analyzed to assess differences across three age groups (40-44 years, 45-49 years, 50-54). We found no significant difference in the rate of cardiovascular disease between postmenopausal and perimenopausal women, while the rate of osteoporosis was higher in postmenopausal women compared to perimenopausal women.

Value-based reimbursement programmes have become increasingly common in attempts to bend the cost curve of healthcare without negative effects on quality. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of introducing a value-based reimbursement programme on the cost to third-party payer. We performed a retrospective observational study with a before and after design based on the introduction of a value-based reimbursement programme in Sweden.
