Objective: The reliability of the thoracolumbar injury classification and severity (TLICS) score is well established; however, its among young neurosurgeons in particular has not been investigated. This study was designed to identify intra- inter-observer differences between TLICS system McAfee neurosurgeons, with goal facilitating communication physicians treatment decision-making for patients...

DOWN syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosomal disorder, occurring in 1 of every 600–800 births. It is characterized by mental retardation, as well as craniofacial, upper airway, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal anomalies. One manifestation of DS relevant to anesthesiologists is upper cervical spine instability produced by ligamentous laxity, skeletal anomalies, or both. This instability...

INTRODUCTION Inflammation of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) is a fundamental clinical feature of axial spondyloarthritis (SpA). The anatomy of the irregularly shaped SIJ is complex with an antero-inferior cartilaginous compartment containing central hyaline and peripheral fibrocartilage, and a dorso-superior ligamentous compartment. Several scoring modules to systematically assess SIJ magnetic res...

Lunate fractures are rare and usually occur together with other fractures, dislocations, or ligament disruptions.

Ankle inversion ligamentous sprain is one of the most common sports injuries. The most direct way is to investigate real injury incidents, but it is unethical and impossible to replicate on test participants. Simulators including tilt platforms, trapdoors, and fulcrum devices were designed to mimic ankle inversion movements in laboratories. Inversion angle was the only element considered in ear...
