Systematic review. ⋯ "DH," especially as measured by DHC, may be an important intraoperative consideration when selecting implant size during CDR. Maintaining DHC <2 mm may optimize PROMs and ROM. Improving technique and implant sizing may aid in translating ex vivo advantages in implant mobility to in vivo improvements in ROM and PROMs.
-
Retrospective cohort. ⋯ Class 2/3 obese patients have worse PROMs preoperatively and postoperatively. However, they show similar improvement in PROMs, MCID and PASS achievement rates, likelihood of betterment, recovery kinetics, and complication/reoperation rates as other BMI groups following minimally invasive decompression.
-
Experimental study. ⋯ The EOS rabbit model demonstrated reduced lung volume, impaired alveolarization, septal thickening, and vascular changes, indicating scoliosis's negative impact on thoracic and lung development, especially on the concave lung.
-
Prospective longitudinal comparative cohort. ⋯ Predictive hemodynamic monitoring to manage intraoperative hemodynamic instability is associated with a shorter duration of intraoperative hypotension, a lower prevalence of complications, and a decreased hospital stay in multi-level spinal fusion surgery.

Retrospective review. ⋯ Level II.
