  1. 6. On the Diagnosis and Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

    Författare :Konstantinos Pazarlis; Peter Försth; Bengt Sandén; Nikos Schizas; Karl Michaëlsson; Christian Hellum; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lumbar spinal stenosis; spine surgery; decompression; fusion; sagittal balance; electrodiagnosis; neurophysiology; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Neurology; Neurologi; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is the most common indication for spinal surgery. The aging global population is increasing the demand for strategies that promote physical activity among the elderly. As the prevalence of LSS rises, the condition gains constantly demographic and socioeconomic attention. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Degenerative cervical myelopathy: Surgical treatment, imaging evaluation, and outcome

    Författare :Eddie de Dios Perez; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cervical spondylotic myelopathy; decompression and fusion; degenerative cervical myelopathy; EMS; muscle-preserving laminectomy; MRI; P-mJOA; sagittal alignment; surgical outcome;

    Sammanfattning : Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is the most common cause of spinal cord impairment in adults worldwide. The overall aims of this thesis were to compare patient-reported clinical outcomes, adverse events, and cost-effectiveness between decompression alone and decompression with fusion; evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based sagittal alignment measurements; determine postoperative improvement rates and potential predictors of surgical outcome; and compare the patient-derived modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (P-mJOA) scale with the European Myelopathy Score (EMS) for the assessment of DCM.

  4. 8. Sagittal plane knee translation in healthy and ACL deficient subjects : a methodological study in vivo with clinical implications

    Författare :Anil Vergis; Jon Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :anterior cruciate ligament; electrogoniometer system; gait; knee; kinematics; motion analysis; step ascent; step descent; translation; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : This study on human subjects, comprises of four cross sectional and one prospective cohort study. The general purpose of this work was to develop a technique for measuring in vivo, sagittal anterior-posterior translatory motions in the knee joint using a computerized electrogoniometer (CA-4000, OS Inc., Hayward CA, USA).

  7. 10. Sagittal plane knee motion during activity in the anterior cruciate ligament deficient knee

    Författare :Joanna Kvist; Alf Thorstensson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : A complete rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) results in static and often in functional instability. After an ACL-injury, most patients have to decrease their activity level, while some can cope with their injury and manage to keep a high activity level. LÄS MER
