We assessed effects of compressive forces to mouse tail segments of WT and TNF-Tg mice with SA, via contrast enhanced-MRI and histology. Normalized marrow contrast enhancement (NMCE) of uninstrumented WT vertebrae significantly decrease, threefold (p 0.01) from 8 to 12 weeks of age, while the NMCE of TNF-Tg vertebrae remained elevated. Compressive loading (6× body weight) increased NMCE twofold (p 0.02) within 2 weeks in WT tails, which was equal to 6× loaded TNF-Tg tails within 4 weeks. Histology conf… br

Microendoscopic discectomy for recurrent lumbar disc herniation*

Microendoscopic discectomy for recurrent lumbar disc herniation*
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the feasibility of microendoscopic discectomy (MED) for the treatment of recurrent lumbar disc herniation. Thirty-six patients with recurrent lumbar disc herniation were treated using MED (30 men and six women; mean age: 45.7 years, range: 26[ndash]80 years; mean follow-up: 24.4 months, range: 12[ndash]52 months; mean duration between the primary and revision surgery: 65.9 months, range: 1[ndash]320 months) (recurrent group). Sex- and age-matched patients with primary lumbar disc herniation treated by MED served as the control group (primary group). The clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association score for low back pain and questionnaires regarding MED. The average Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores before surge…

Predictors of new vertebral endplate signal (Modic) changes in the general population

Predictors of new vertebral endplate signal (Modic) changes in the general population
Abstract  Vertebral endplate signal changes (VESC), also known as Modic changes, have been reported to be associated with low back pain (LBP). However, little is known about predisposing factors for the development of new VESC. The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of lifestyle factors and disc-related magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in relation to the development of new VESC. This prospective observational study included 344 people from the Danish general population who had an MRI and completed LBP questionnaires at the age of 40 and again at 44 years. Potential predictors of new VESC were female gender, disc-related MRI findings (disc degeneration, disc bulges, disc herniation, and other endplate changes) and lifestyle factors [high …
