Intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation causes pain and disability, but current discectomy
procedures alleviate pain without repairing annulus fibrosus (AF) defects. Tissue engineering …

Tissue engineering repair of annulus fibrosus (AF) defects has the potential to prevent
disability and pain from intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation and its progression to degeneration. …

Fusion is the current standard of care for AIS. Anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) is a
motion-sparing alternative gaining interest. As a novel procedure, there is a paucity of …

… Theodor Di Pauli von Treuheim initiated the project, generated the Matlab program, developed
methods, analyzed data, and wrote first draft of the manuscript. Olivia M. Torre initiated …

Study design Validation of classification system. Objectives To externally validate the Proximal
Humerus Ossification System (PHOS) as a reliable skeletal maturity scoring system and …

Background Anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) has been approved for skeletally
immature (IM) adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients, but the role of AVBT in patients with …

Purpose Durability of outcomes following vertebral body tethering (VBT) is a concern and
may be impacted by tether breakage (TB), which has been unstudied in a large cohort. We …

Animals with detectable injuries are at escalated threat of predation. The anti-predation tactic
of schooling reduces individual predation risk overall, but it is not known how schooling …

Vertebral Body Tethering (VBT) is a non-fusion surgical treatment for Adolescent Idiopathic
Scoliosis (AIS) that elicits correction via growth modulation in skeletally immature patients. …

There has been substantial effort directed toward the application of bone marrow and
adipose‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in the regeneration of musculoskeletal tissue. …
