Malnutrition is an independent risk factor for postoperative complications following lumbar spine surgery, particularly surgical site infection and wound-related adverse events. As perioperative care has shifted toward proactive risk modification, nutritional optimization has gained attention alongside established targ...

PURPOSE
Sacral fractures cause substantial morbidity and mortality, yet prior studies have focused on fixation strategy and functional outcomes rather than survival. In the largest cohort to date, we evaluated factors associated with lower in-hospital mortality following operative management among adults with sacral fr...

Background: Before unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the contralateral radiograph is reduced to a Kellgren–Lawrence grade. We asked what the image adds, what the model reads, and how many views are needed. Methods: A multi-view DenseNet121 survival network predicted 5-year contralateral arthroplasty from routin...

Chronic low back pain encompasses heterogeneous mechanical, neuropathic, nociplastic, and myofascial presentations that may reflect distinct neuroimmune mechanisms. We synthesized evidence linking these phenotypes to measurable biological features and clinically relevant treatment strategies. We conducted a structured...

Corticosteroid use is independently associated with increased 30-day infectious complications, readmission, and mortality following ACDF, and perioperative risk modification should prioritize minimizing corticosteroid burden over the cessation of biologic therapies.

Current evidence does not support autonomous diagnostic, radiographic, or operative decision-making in spine surgery, and future studies should prioritize spine-specific retrieval-augmented systems, validated multimodal workflows, privacy-preserving deployment, fairness assessment, and prospective evaluation using clin...
