Relationship between odontoid fracture angle and cervical sagittal balance

The Relationship between T1 Sagittal Angle and Sagittal Balance: A Retrospective Study of 119 Healthy Volunteers

T1 sagittal angle has been reported to be used as a parameter for assessing sagittal balance and cervical lordosis. However, no study has been performed to explore the relationship between T1 sagittal angle and sagittal balance, and whether T1 sagittal angle could be used for osteotomy guidelines remains unknown. The aim of our study is to explore the relationship between T1 sagittal angle and ...

Kinematic analysis of the relationship between Modic changes and sagittal balance parameters in the cervical spine

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the Modic changes (MCs) and sagittal parameters of the cervical spine.We conducted a retrospective review of 100 outpatients with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the cervical spine (50 male and 50 female). MRI parameters were measured, including neck tilt, T1 slope (T1 ), thoracic inlet angle (TIA), and cervical lordosis...

Relationship between fracture dip angle, aperture and fluid flow in the fractured rock masses

Most of the Earth's crust contains fluids, and fractures are common throughout the upper part. They exist at a wide range of scales from micro-fractures within grains to major faults and shear zones that traverse the crust. In this paper, the stress-dependent permeability in fractured rock masses have been investigated considering the effects of nonlinear normal deformation and shear dilation o...

Odontoid Fracture: Computed Tomography

Sagittal balance.

It has become increasingly clear in the past decade that local, regional, and global sagittal alignment of the spinal column is strongly correlated to both quality of life assessments and also the results of spinal surgical interventions. Traditional open spinal reconstructive procedures have emphasized these sagittal parameters recently, correlating to successful radiographic and clinical resu...
