Facet joint kinematics and injury mechanisms during simulated whiplash

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated facet joint kinematics, including facet joint compression and facet joint sliding, and quantify peak capsular ligament strain during simulated whiplash, and found that the ligament is at risk for injury at higher accelerations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predominant leg pain is associated with better surgical outcomes in degenerative spondylolisthesis and spinal stenosis: results from the Spine Patient Outcomes Research Trial (SPORT).

TL;DR: Evidence suggests that DS and SpS Patients with predominant leg pain may have better surgical outcomes than patients with predominant low back pain (LBP), and Predominant leg pain patients improved significantly more with surgery than predominant LBP patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cervical spine curvature during simulated whiplash

TL;DR: Both the upper and lower cervical spine are at risk for extension injury during rear-impact and flexion injury is unlikely, according to a new method to describe cervical spine curvature.
