This study aimed to evaluate the biomechanical effects of reinserted or revised subaxial cervical vertebral screws....
The first part aimed to gauge the maximum insertional torque (MIT) of 30 subaxial cervical vertebrae outfitted with 4.0-mm titanium screws. A reinsertion group was created wherein a screw was wholly r...
Part I findings: No significant difference was observed in the initial insertion's maximum insertion torque (MIT) and maximum pull-out strength (MPOS) between the control and reinsertion groups. Howev...
This study suggests that reinsertion of subaxial cervical vertebrae screws along the same trajectory is a viable option that does not significantly affect fixation stability. However, the use of 4.5-m...
This study aimed to automatically determine the cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) processes on lateral cephalometric radiograph images using a proposed deep learning-based convolutional neural netwo...
A total of 588 digital lateral cephalometric radiographs of patients with a chronological age between 8 and 22 years were included in this study. CVM evaluation was carried out by two dentomaxillofaci...
As a result of the training that lasted 40 epochs, 58% training and 57% test accuracy were obtained. The model obtained results that were very close to the training on the test data. On the other hand...
The experimental results have shown that the developed model achieved moderate success and it reached a classification accuracy of 58.66% in CVM stage classification....
The aim of this study was to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to automatically and accurately determine the stage of cervical vertebra maturation (CVM) with the main purpose being to ...
Archives of the cephalometric images were reviewed and the data of 1501 subjects with fully visible cervical vertebras were included in this retrospective study....
Lateral cephalometric (LC) that met the inclusion criteria were used in the training process, labeling was carried out using a computer vision annotation tool (CVAT), tracing was done by an experience...
The ICC was valued at 0.973, weighted Cohen's kappa standard error was 0.870 ± 0.027 which shows high reliability of the observers and excellent level of agreement between them, the segmentation netwo...
The developed algorithm showed the ability to determine the cervical vertebrae maturation stage which might aid in a faster diagnosis process by eliminating human intervention, which might lead to wro...
With the changes in human work and lifestyle, the incidence of cervical spondylosis is increasing substantially, especially for adolescents. Cervical spine exercises are an important means to prevent ...
We will use micro-computed tomography to scan 31 sets of the adult lower cervical vertebrae (155 vertebrae) to observe the morphological characteristics and direction of trabeculae in the lower cervic...
Sex estimation is the primary step in biological profiling via identification using skeletal elements. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of the seventh cervical vertebra for ...
The objective of this study was to describe a new potential complication, collapse in the middle cervical vertebra of consecutive 2-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), and discuss it...
Clinical and radiologic outcome data from 27 consecutive 2-level ACDF patients using zero-profile devices were collected at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively, as well as the last follow-up. Dysph...
The application of zero-profile devices to treat consecutive 2-level cervical spondylosis mostly resulted in good midterm clinical outcomes. Surprisingly, as evidenced by the significantly decreased a...
Collapse in the middle cervical vertebra of consecutive 2-level ACDF with the application of zero-profile devices can occur in the early postoperative period, which may be due to axial stress concentr...
We aim to apply deep learning to achieve fully automated detection and classification of the Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) stages. We propose an innovative custom-designed deep Convolutional Neu...
A total of 1018 Cephalometric radiographs were labeled and classified according to the Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) stages. The images were cropped to extract the cervical vertebrae using an Ag...
The proposed innovative model that uses a CNN preceded with a layer of tunable directional filters achieved a validation accuracy of 84.63%84.63% in CVM stage classification into five classes, exceedi...
The proposed model of a custom-designed CNN together with the tunable Directional Filters (CNNDF) is observed to provide higher accuracy than the commonly used pre-trained network models that we inves...
Bone functional adaptation rationalises the inhomogeneous morphology found in bone. By means of computed tomography osteoabsorptiometry and micro-computed tomography, the mineralisation of the subchon...
We examined the micro-computed tomography scans of seven prospectively healthy C4 vertebrae, evaluated their microstructure parameters (bone volume fraction (BV/TV), bone surface density (BS/BV), trab...
Highest mineralisation is located dorsally at the endplates. Tb.Sp and Tb.N were the only two parameters that displayed significant differences in averaged values of VOI. Nonetheless, distinct, consis...
CT-OAM and µCT demonstrate the interdependence of compact and trabecular bone in response to long-term loading conditions. Results show highest mineralisation in the dorso-caudal part of the C4 verteb...
BACKGROUND Abnormal physiological curvature is one of the symptoms of early cervical spondylosis. An X-ray taken with the patient standing in a natural position can best reflect the real cervical vert...
