The pharmacokinetics of carboplatin were investigated in cancer patients after single, IV
infusion doses of 75, 150, 247.5, 300, 375, and 450 mg/m 2 . Total plasma and urine platinum …

Background context Previous studies have shown that oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF)
can improve neurological symptoms via “indirect decompression.” However, data are …

A polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surface was modified using a sol–gel-derived TiO 2 coating
in order to confer bone-bonding ability. To enhance the bonding strength of the coating layer…

We have previously developed the “alkali and heat treatment” method to confer bioactivity (bone-bonding
ability) to titanium metal (Ti). As strontium (Sr) and magnesium (Mg) ions …

OBJECTIVE The use of indirect decompression surgery for severe canal stenosis remains
controversial. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of lateral interbody …

Study Design. Retrospective review of a prospectively collected multicenter database.
Objective. To assess how “overcorrection” of the main thoracic curve without control of the …

Purpose To elucidate the effect of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) on the
clinical results of short-segment lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) for the treatment of degenerative …

We recently developed a surface treatment, “precursor of apatite” (PrA), for polyetheretherketone
(PrA-PEEK) via a simple, low-temperature process aiming to achieve stronger and …

Study Design. Retrospective study. Objective. To elucidate factors that determine segmental
lordosis after lateral retroperitoneal lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) with percutaneous …

To overcome problems associated with loosening of orthopedic implants and surgical site
infections, we developed a novel, titanium (Ti)‐based material that releases both strontium …
