Cervical alignment as a concept has come to the forefront for spine deformity research in the
last decade. Studies on cervical sagittal alignment started from normative data, and …

When spinal imbalance occurs, the human body reacts through various compensatory
mechanisms to maintain the head over the pelvis and to retain a horizontal gaze. These …

Study Design. Retrospective review of a prospectively collected database. Objective. To
define a simplified singular measure of cervical deformity (CD), C2 slope (C2S), which …

Cervical alignment has become increasingly important in the planning of spine surgery. A
relationship between the slope of T1 (T1S), the cervical lordosis (CL), and the overall …

Aims To compare the rates of sagittal and coronal correction for all-pedicle screw
instrumentation and hybrid instrumentation using sublaminar bands in the treatment of …

Although current lumbar stabilization exercises are beneficial for chronic mechanical low
back pain, further research is recommended focusing on global spinal alignment …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT Whiplash-associated disorder is a common cause of chronic
neck pain. Several radiological cervical angular variables are suggested to have …

Study design Finite element analysis. Objectives To biomechanically validate the
classification of lumbopelvic fixation failure using an in silico model. Summary of …

Purpose: We have always used the standard anatomical landmark vertebrae to measure the
sagittal alignment. Instead, scoliosis has been evaluated by the end vertebrae in the coronal …

Recent literature suggests that sublaminar bands (SB) can provide good coronal plane
correction, comparable to pedicle screw constructs, as well as good correction in the sagittal …
