Abstract:
Cervical spinal cord injury (CSCI) is a devastating event that can cause not only motor and sensory impairments but also autonomic dysfunction. Functional and morphological changes in the autonomic nervous system can also affect the respiratory, cardiovascular, renal and gastrointestinal systems. In our study, APACHE-II and Frankel Scale were used. The revised acute physiology and chronic health assessment system (APACHE-II) is a physiologically-based scale that includes 12 physiological parameters. The Frankel Scale was developed in 1969 by Dr. Frankel and is considered to be the pioneer of t

Methods Five top orthopedic journals were reviewed from 2004 to 2013 for clinical studies of surgical intervention in spinal trauma that reported patient-reported outcome instruments use or neurologic function scale use. Publication year, level of evidence (LOE), and outcome instruments were collected for each article and analyzed. Results A total of 58 studies were identified. Among them, 26 named outcome instruments and 7 imp

Abstract Traumatic spine injuries in pediatric patients have a low incidence, mainly due to a more flexible spine and is a specific matter in comparison to spinal injury in adults. Pediatric spine fractures constitute 1 to 3% of all pediatric fractures. Between 20 % and 60% of the fractures occur in the lumbar and thoracic spine. These spine injury appeared most frequently in sport events, followed by traffic events and accidental falling. The vast majority of the children with spinal trauma had grade D and E lesions on Frankel scale and had a good recovery in 1 to 3 months after the event. Pr

Emergency surgery was performed (L3-L2-bilateral laminectomy, L1 left laminectomy, posterior stabilization L2-L4 by titan screws) offering the possibility to progressive motor, sensitive and sphincterian deficites recovery.

Abstract:
Abstract At the scale range of 1 to 10 km, faults are not continuous surfaces but are tabular bodies composed of a mesh of subparallel unconnected strands, or subfaults. The cumulative length distribution of these subfaults is observed to be a power law with an approximate exponent of −2 and an upper fractal limit at W*, the seismogenic width. If it is assumed that small earthquakes, with lengths L ≤ W*, represent the rupture of these subfaults, this offers a physical explanation for small earthquakes having their observed power-law distribution with exponent −2/3.

Background and Objectives: There have been numerous advances in spine surgery for metastatic spinal tumors, and minimally invasive spine stabilization (MISt) is becoming increasingly popular in Japan. MISt is a minimally invasive fixation procedure that temporarily stabilizes the spine, thereby reducing pain, preventing pathological fractures, and improving activities of daily living at an early stage. MISt may be useful given the recent shift toward outpatient cancer treatment. Materials and Methods: This study enrolled 51 patients with metastatic spinal tumors who underwent surgery using MIS
