Univariate analyses and logistic regression assessed the impact of these three deformity classifications on PJK and PJF rates by 2Y postop. RESULTS: 708 patients with concurrent ASD and CD included (62 yrs, 71% F, 28.2 kg/m2, levels fused 10.1 ± 4.5). Sagittal morphotypes [flatneck(FN), ...
General inflammatory markers pre- and post-cardiac surgery. Serum CRP (dark scales) and IL-6 (dark bubbles) levels before surgery (tPre-op), and 24 h (t24h), 7 days (t7d), and 3 months (t3m) after surgery. *p < 0.05 as compared to tpre-op Full size image HSP-60 was el...

Binary logistic regression analysis was utilized to assess associations between risk modifiers and adverse events at the intra-, peri-operative and 3 months post-surgery. Results: Of the 761 patients studied (age < 65, n = 581 (76.3%) and 65 + n = 180 (23.7%), the intra-op adverse ...
High PI patients who were corrected to the Schwab quartile of ratios underwent less reoperations (6.1% vs 23.3%) and had less PJK occurrence by 2-years postop (20.4% vs 40%), all p<0.05. CONCLUSIONS Certain ratios of correction of the SRS-Schwab modifiers contribute to improving clinical ...
Less Appropriate patients demonstrated higher rates of postop dysphagia complications (17% vs 2%), met MCID for NDI less (0% vs 30.9%), and had more occurrences of DJK (16.7% vs 6.4%) by 2 years, p<0.05. CONCLUSIONS In light of the heterogeneity and uncertainty surrounding CD, this ...
METHODS Inclusion criteria included surgical ASD (scoliosis ≥20°, SVA ≥5cm, PT ≥25°, or thoracic kyphosis ≥60°) patients >18 years with available frailty, demographic, and radiographic data at BL and 1 year postop. Descriptive analyses assessed mean age, frailty, and surgical data. ...

A total of 21% of patients had a postop segmental motor deficit, and the risk was elevated in the osteoporosis group [9]. In our systematic review, most articles focused on the advantages of preservation of cervical alignment and the outcome of operating and/or correcting alignment by ADF ...
