Diabetes increases the risk of failure in spinal fusion procedures
A new study from orthopaedic researchers at The University of Toledo has found lumbar spinal fusion procedures are far more likely to fail in individuals with diabetes.
Tissue bridges as predictors of recovery from cervical spine injuries
Results of the longitudinal study, "Prognostic value of tissue bridges in cervical spinal cord injury," have the potential to change clinical practice. They have been published in The Lancet Neurology.
Efficacy and Safety of Stem Cell Therapy for Orthopedic Conditions, Including Osteoarthritis and Bone Defects
Orthopedic conditions like osteoarthritis and bone defects pose significant challenges due to their impact on individuals' quality of life. Traditional treatments often provide only symptomatic relief, necessitating alternative therapies for long-term management. Stem cell therapy has grabbed attention for its regenerative and immunomodulatory properties, offering potential for tissue repair and functional restoration.
Understanding the Critical Role of SI Joint Health in Lower Back Pain
The Sacroiliac (SI) joint often plays a critical yet under-recognized role in lower back pain, a crucial point emphasized during the National Spine Health Foundation’s Spine-Talk “Is My Back Pain Actually Hip Pain? What You Need to Know About the SI Joint” by Dr. Rita Roy and spine expert Dr. David Polly.
Upper Back Pain: What It Is, Causes, Symptoms & Treatment

Segmental Instability
Segmental instability is a condition where the bones in your spine (vertebrae) move more than they should. This extra movement can cause pain and make it difficult to perform everyday activities. It usually occurs in the lower back (lumbar spine) but can happen in other parts of the spine too.
Stem cells: A new mechanical transducer
Scientists reveal how ETV4 controls stem cell differentiation in response to mechanical cues.
What to know about spinal stenosis surgery
Spinal stenosis is a condition that causes the spaces in the spine to become narrow. This can put pressure on the spinal cord. When the spaces in the spine narrow, it can create pressure on the spinal cord and any nearby nerve tissue.
Study shows high rates of hip osteoarthritis among older adults with spinal deformity
One-third of patients undergoing surgery for adult spinal deformity (ASD) also have severe osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip—which is associated with worse spinal alignment and physical functioning, reports a study in the Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery.
