Biomechanics of Lateral Interbody Spacers: Going Wider for Going Stiffer
This study investigates the biomechanical stability of a large interbody spacer inserted by a lateral approach and compares the biomechanical differences with the more conventional transforaminal interbody fusion (TLIF), with and without supplemental pedicle screw (PS) fixation. Twenty-four L2-L3 functional spinal units (FSUs) were tested with three interbody cage options: (i) 18 mm XLIF cage, ...
متن کاملGoing, going, gone
The decline and loss of species is inevitable in the face of growing human pressures on the environment but, according to one group of senior researchers, a standard framework is needed to assess the rate of this decline if researchers wish to be effective and policymakers are to take note.
متن کاملGoing Wider: Recurrent Neural Network With Parallel Cells
Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) has been widely applied for sequence modeling. In RNN, the hidden states at current step are full connected to those at previous step, thus the influence from less related features at previous step may potentially decrease model’s learning ability. We propose a simple technique called parallel cells (PCs) to enhance the learning ability of Recurrent Neural Network...
متن کاملMitochondrial Evolution: Going, Going, Gone
Monocercomonoides is the first example of a eukaryote lacking even the most reduced form of a mitochondrion-related organelle. This has important implications for cellular processes and our understanding of reductive mitochondrial evolution across the eukaryotic tree of life.
متن کاملGoing, Going, Gone: Is Animal Migration Disappearing
Essay A nimal migration surely ranks as one of nature's most visible and widespread phenomena. Every minute of every day, somewhere, some place, animals are on the move. The migrants span the animal kingdom, from whales and warblers to dragonflies and salamanders. But is migration an endangered phenomenon? Around the world, many of the most spectacular migrations have either disappeared due to ...
