A retrospective observational study of 279 transpedicular thoracic screws using postoperative computed tomography (CT).To determine the accuracy screws.Previous studies have reported importance properly placed screws. To our knowledge, in vivo pedicle screw placement throughout entire spine by CT is unknown.The within and vertebral body resultant transverse angle (TSA) were assessed CT. Cortical perforations graded 2-mm increments. Screws regionally grouped for analysis.Forty consecutive...
Optimal surgical management of anterior shoulder instability remains controversial. There is a need to assess the most recent trends for primary and revision stabilization surgery using national database significantly larger than those previously utilized.Most procedures are performed arthroscopically. Examining procedures, we hypothesized that open would result in decreased stabilizations compared with arthroscopic be Bankart or bone transfer regardless index procedure technique.Descriptive...
The heterogeneous and anisotropic articular cartilage is generally studied as a layered structure of "zones" with unique composition architecture, which difficult to recapitulate using current approaches. A novel hybrid bioprinting strategy presented here generate zonally stratified cartilage. Scaffold-free tissue strands (TSs) are made human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) or predifferentiated ADSCs. Cartilage TSs ADSCs exhibit improved mechanical properties upregulated expression...
Retrospective review.Our purpose was to evaluate factors associated with increased risk of prolonged post-operative opioid pain medication usage following spine surgery, as well identify the various complications that may be pre-operative usage.The MarketScan commercial claims and encounters database includes approximately 39 million patients per year. Patients undergoing cervical lumbar surgery between years 2005-2014 were identified using CPT codes. Pre-operative comorbidities including...
The development of tunable, ultrasound-responsive hydrogels that can deliver protein payload on-demand when exposed to focused ultrasound is described in this study. Reversible Diels-Alder linkers, which undergo a retro reaction stimulated with ultrasound, were used cross-link chitosan entrapped FITC-BSA as model therapeutic payload. Two linkage compositions large differences the reverse energy barriers compared explore influence linker composition on response. Selected physicochemical...
