Rats exhibit significant recovery of locomotor function following incomplete spinal cord injuries, albeit with altered gait expression and reduced speed and stepping frequency. These changes likely ...

Introduction Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a common condition in adults and can impose a heavy burden on both the individual and society. It is defined as displacement of disc components beyond the ...

It can be developmental, congenital, or acquired. This article discusses acquired degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis. Lumbar spondylosis refers to degenerative changes of the lumbar spine.

Posteriorly, the bony arch encircles the spinal canal (Fig 1). It is composed of transverse processes, facet joints, two pedicles, two laminae, and a spinous process. In the lumbar spine, the bony ...

Studies of spine mechanics have shown that the lumbar region experiences higher tensile and shear deformations compared to other regions which increase the probability of disc injury. Hence, studies ...

No spinal injury outcomes were identified. Meta-analysis was not possible due to heterogeneity and study quality. All evidence related to PFs and specific lower extremity injury outcomes was of very ...

However, the medullary cone is located at or above the level of the second lumbar vertebra at birth. The objective is to determine the difference between the rates of longitudinal growth of the spinal ...

What is degenerative disc disease? One of the more unfortunate aspects of getting older is that your joints begin to wear out, oftentimes for no good reason. This wear and tear of the joints is not ...
