Machine learning approach to predict acute kidney injury among patients undergoing multi-level spinal posterior instrumented fusion Open
The analysis of the data with different ML models identified 5 key variables that are most closely associated with AKI: chronic renal disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus ± complications, older age (>50 years old), and congestive heart…

Machine learning approach to predict venous thromboembolism among patients undergoing multi-level spinal posterior instrumented fusion Open
The analysis of the data with different ML models identified 5 key variables that are most closely associated with VTE. Using these variables, we have developed a simple risk model with additive odds ratio ranging from 2.80 (1 risk factor)…

Database analysis comparing incidence and complication rates between inpatient and outpatient laminotomies for lumbar disc herniation Open
Our study demonstrated an increasing trend in the performance of laminotomy for LDH toward the outpatient setting. Even when controlling for certain confounders, patients requiring inpatient procedures had higher rates of postoperative com…

Perioperative outcomes of cervical disc arthroplasty: no difference between orthopaedic and neurologic surgeons Open
There were no differences in medical or surgical complications, as well as in reoperations, readmissions, and LOS in patients who underwent a single-level CDA between OS and NS. There was a statistically significant shorter operative time …

Post-operative opioid utilization after surgery for spinal trauma: a retrospective study at a level 1 trauma center Open
Opioid use declines significantly over long-term follow-up in spinal trauma patients. However, individuals with incomplete spinal cord injuries and partial motor/sensory recovery remain at higher risk for prolonged use. In contrast, cervic…
View article: Single-level posterior cervical foraminotomy associated with increased incidence of early postoperative wound infection rates relative to anterior cervical discectomy with fusion and cervical disc arthroplasty
Single-level posterior cervical foraminotomy associated with increased incidence of early postoperative wound infection rates relative to anterior cervical discectomy with fusion and cervical disc arthroplasty Open
Cervical radiculopathy patients undergoing PCF are associated with higher rates of perioperative infection and overall reoperation than ACDF or CDA. Further research is required to elucidate the mechanism behind this association.
