Orthopedics Research

KEY FINDING: The monoplegia in the test group of rats recovered significantly (P value < 0.01) with supplementation of the bone marrow cells and neurotransmitters combination.

KEY FINDING: Atrophy was observed in the ventral gray matter at the C4-C5 level, causing a triangular shape in cross-sections of the spinal cord.

KEY FINDING: There was a statistical difference between the groups with and without gap in relation to the motor neuron count.

KEY FINDING: The use of cells combined with a cell-delivery system, miRNA, scaffold, and cytokines has led to effective regeneration of musculoskeletal tissues including cartilage, bone, ligaments, muscle, peripheral nerves, and spinal cord.

KEY FINDING: Spinal compression and neurological deficit are major factors in deciding whether to perform surgery.

KEY FINDING: The vancomycin-encapsulated hydrogel, when loaded into the microarc-oxidized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V implant, exhibits effective antibacterial activity against MRSA both in vitro and in vivo.

KEY FINDING: Both surgical procedures led to significant improvements in postoperative AISA scores compared to preoperative scores, indicating enhanced neurological function after surgery.

KEY FINDING: ACAF can be a good option for treating CCS patients due to hyperextension injury with underlying cervical spondylosis and stenosis.

KEY FINDING: At the final FU, the patients of ASIA B, C, and D recovered to E.

KEY FINDING: Patients in both groups showed significant postoperative improvement in NDI and JOA scores, indicating that ACCF is effective regardless of the slotting width.
