Potencial uso de la tecnología basada en microARNs para el diagnóstico y pronóstico de la escoliosis idiopática del adolescente
2021
Introducción: La escoliosis idiopática del adolescente (EIA) es una enfermedad que se caracteriza por una deformación tridimensional de la columna vertebral cuya etiología es aún desconocida. Actualmente no existe una explicación clara sobre la evolución de la enfermedad; El diagnóstico y seguimiento actual de la EIA se basa en el análisis de la curvatura de la columna mediante radiografía de rayos X, la cual está considerada como la técnica gold standard. Sin embargo, esta técnica no tiene valor pronóstico y las repetidas exposiciones han demostrado incrementar la incidencia de cáncer en la edad adulta. Es necesario, por tanto, el desarrollo de una nueva herramienta para el diagnóstico tem…

Risk Factors, Lifestyle and Prevention among Adolescents with Idiopathic Juvenile Scoliosis: A Cross Sectional Study in Eleven First-Grade Secondary …
2021
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has an incidence of 2–3% in the general population and a multifactorial etiology. The present study aims to analyze modifiable risk factors and their interactions in the development of AIS in order to increase knowledge about the disease and to prevent the evolution of AIS in young students with tailored public health strategies. A cross-sectional study was conducted over two consecutive school years among students attending 11 first-grade secondary schools in the province of Palermo, Italy. A self-administered questionnaire that investigated socio-demographical, physical and anamnestic characteristics and habits, focusing on possible risk factors…
Minimal invasive posterior correction of Lenke 5C idiopathic scoliosis: comparative analysis of minimal invasive vs. open surgery
2019
Introduction Surgical management of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in spite of usually favourable outcomes is still a major operation. Therefore, efforts are being undertaken to minimalize the procedure, reduce the surgical trauma and postoperative convalescence. The study was designed to compare posterior minimal invasive surgery using navigation based on intraoperative 3D imaging and standard open instrumented fusion in Lenke 5C idiopathic scoliosis treatment. Materials and methods From eight patients with Lenke 5C curves planned for posterior correction and instrumented fusion, four were treated with minimally invasive and four had open procedure. Operation length, estimated blood loss,…
Correlation of Vertebral Absolute Axial Rotations in CAD 3D Models of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Non-Invasively Diagnosed
2019
This paper presents preliminary results on non-invasive optical diagnosis of patient with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with recently developed tool ScolioSIM. This tool generates intrinsic and extrinsic indicators of the spinal deformity and 3D CAD (Computer-aided Design) deformity model based only on a digitalized dorsal surface of the examined patient. Our primary focus in this paper are absolute axial rotations (AAR) of each vertebra in AIS patients and their correlations. Clinical relevance of this research is high, as we intend to avoid traditional methods which rely on highly complicated reading and measuring of AARs on planar x-ray films, as these methods involve ionizing ra…

Load Distribution in the Lumbar Spine During Modeled Compression Depends on Lordosis.
2021
Excessive or incorrect loading of lumbar spinal structures is commonly assumed as one of the factors to accelerate degenerative processes, which may lead to lower back pain. Accordingly, the mechanics of the spine under medical conditions, such as scoliosis or spondylolisthesis, is well-investigated. Treatments via both conventional therapy and surgical methods alike aim at restoring a “healthy” (or at least pain-free) load distribution. Yet, surprisingly little is known about the inter-subject variability of load bearings within a “healthy” lumbar spine. Hence, we utilized computer tomography data from 28 trauma-room patients, whose lumbar spines showed no visible sign of degeneration, to …

The angle of trunk rotation and symmetry of a lower limb loading in musicians of a symphony orchestra in Poland: a pilot study concerning instrument-…
2022
Background: The study aimed to evaluate the angle of trunk rotation (ATR) and symmetry of lower limb loading in professional musicians. Material and Methods: A total of 60 instrumentalists were examined: cellists, violinists and musicians playing wind instruments. The scoliometer examination was used to assess trunk asymmetry. The angle of trunk rotation was measured at segment: Th1–Th4, Th5–Th12, and Th12–L4. The maximum value (ATR max) and the sum of three rotations (STR) were calculated. Two scales were used to assess the symmetry of lower limb loading. Loading symmetry index (LSI) of the lower limb was calculated. Results: Violinists have the highest mean values of ATR, ATR max, STR and…
