Despite increased life expectancy due to health care quality improvements globally, pyogenic vertebral osteomyelitis (PVO) treatment with a spinal epidural abscess (SEA) remains challenging in patients older than 80 years. We aimed to assess octogenarians for PVO prevalence with SEA and compare after-...

Data from 251 patients were used to validate the model. Results Nonsmokers (odds ratio = 0.41 [95% confidence interval = 0.19-0.87]), with lower Body Mass Index (0.93 [0.85-1.01]), shorter pain duration (0.49 [0.20-1.19]), lower American Society of Anaesthesiologists score (4.82 [1.35...
We also found very low evidence to support that AIS patients treated with AVBT have superior muscle strength and endurance when compared to those treated with PSF.ConclusionsAVBT provides better preservation of ROM and muscle strength postoperatively when compared with PSF, while achieving comparable ...
