Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: To develop a machine learning (ML) model that predicts the progression of AIS using minimal radiographs and simple questionnaires during first visit. Summary Background Data: Several factors are associated with angle in patients AIS. However, it is challenging to predict angular at Methods: Among female treated single institution from July 2011 February 2023, 1119 cases were studied. Patient data, including demographic radiographic data...
Abstract Purpose This study was designed to develop a machine learning (ML) model that predicts future Cobb angle in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) using minimal radiographs and simple questionnaires during the first second visits. Methods Our focused on 887 female AIS who were initially consulted at specialized center from July 2011 February 2023. Patient data, including demographic radiographic data based anterior-posterior lateral whole-spine radiographs, collected...
Spinal fixation surgery has been increasingly performed in patients with osteoporosis. Romosozumab, a drug that was introduced Japan recently, is known to possibly promote bone healing. However, few studies have reported the therapeutic effects of romosozumab clinical practice Japan. Therefore, here, we investigated dosage on fusion promotion using an ovariectomized rat spinal model. Eight-week-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were matched by body weight and divided into three groups: 1.0 (R)...
We often encounter elderly patients with femur bowing. According to literature, femoral bowing is correlated patient characteristics such as aging, race, atypical fracture (AFF), and osteoporosis. However, the clear relationships between these factors are still unknown. In addition, most previous reports have been based only on X-rays may not provide accurate information due rotation inter-operator reliability when compared obtained using computed tomography (CT) scans. The purpose of this...
Romosozumab reportedly increases bone density in patients with severe osteoporosis; however, data on its clinical effects are limited. We conducted a multicenter retrospective survey to study the density-increasing of romosozumab and blood test-based predictive factors osteoporosis, examining practice. This was observational study. The subjects were osteoporosis who treated at participating facilities. increase assessed by comparing changes (as percentage) lumbar spine, femoral neck, total...
