STUDY DESIGN: Longitudinal study. OBJECTIVES: Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM), a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning technique that applies diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), is effective for the quantitative assessment of malignant tumors of the vertebral bone. We hypothesized that IVIM parameters of vertebral bodies are associated with the prognosis of osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF). We aimed to explore the relationships between IVIM parameters for vertebral collapse and non-union after OVF and calculate the cut-off values of these parameters for vertebral collapse and non-union...

STUDY DESIGN: network meta-analysis. OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion (Endo-LIF), minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF), and open transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (OTLIF) in the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases (LDDs). METHOD: A literature search was conducted in the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases. Studies comparing Endo-LIF, MIS-TLIF and OTLIF published from September 2017 to September 2022 for the treatment of LDD were retrieved...

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVES: In patients undergoing adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery we sought to: 1) report preoperative and postoperative lumbosacral fractional (LSF) curve and maximum coronal Cobb angles and 2) determine their impact on radiographic, clinical, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs). METHODS: A single-institution cohort study was undertaken. The LSF curve was the cobb angle between the sacrum and most tilted lower lumbar vertebra...

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVES: The primary objective was to evaluate the impact of the upper instrumented level (UIV) being at C2 vs C3 in posterior cervical construct on patient reported outcomes (PROs) up to 24 months after surgery for cervical degenerative myelopathy (DCM). Secondary objectives were to compare operative time, intra-operative blood loss (IOBL), length of stay (LOS), adverse events (AEs) and re-operation. METHODOLOGY: Patients who underwent a posterior cervical instrumented fusion (3 and + levels) with a C2 or C3 UIV, with 24 months follow-up were analyzed...

STUDY DESIGN: Clinical and basic study. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate whether transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) using 2 banana-shaped cages leads to good clinical outcomes. METHODS: First, we conducted a clinical study to compare outcomes among patients who underwent TLIF using different types or numbers of cages. Propensity matched patients in each group were reviewed. Thirty-four patients who underwent surgery with 2 bullet-shaped cages (group A), 34 with a banana-shaped cage (group B), and 34 with 2 banana-shaped cages (group C) were compared...

STUDY DESIGN: Multicenter, international prospective study. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the clinical outcome up to 2 years after multi-level spinal deformity surgery in the elderly by reporting the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of EuroQol 5-dimensions (EQ-5D), EQ-VAS, and residential status. METHODS: As an ancillary study of 219 patients ≥60 years with spinal deformity undergoing primary instrumented fusion surgery of ≥5 levels, this study focuses on EQ-5D (3-L) as the primary outcome and EQ-VAS and residential status as secondary outcomes...

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is often regarded as the gold standard for spinal pathology, as it provides good structural visualisation. SPECT-CT, however, provides combined structural and functional information. There is a paucity of literature comparing SPECT-CT with MRI in the spine. Our aim was to determine whether SPECT-CT provides additional information to MRI in individuals with complex spinal pathology, including deformity, which altered management...

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort. OBJECTIVE: Billing and coding-related administrative tasks are a major source of healthcare expenditure in the United States. We aim to show that a second-iteration Natural Language Processing (NLP) machine learning algorithm, XLNet, can automate the generation of CPT codes from operative notes in ACDF, PCDF, and CDA procedures. METHODS: We collected 922 operative notes from patients who underwent ACDF, PCDF, or CDA from 2015 to 2020 and included CPT codes generated by the billing code department...
