[PMID: 38813387 PMCID: PMC11133621 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1379078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective Prior research underscores the significance of paraspinal muscles in maintaining spinal stability. This study aims to investigate the predictive value of paraspinal muscle parameters for the occurrence of new vertebral compression fractures (NVCF) following percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) or percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). Methods Retrospectively collected data from October 2019 to February 2021 (internal validation, n = 235) and March 2021 to November 2021 (external validation, n = 105) for patients with OVCF treated with PVP/PKP at our institution. They were randomly divided into training (188 cases) and validation groups (47 cases) at an 8:2 ratio. Lasso regression and multivariable logistic regression identified independent risk factors in the training set, and a Nomogram model was developed. Accuracy was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC), calibration was evaluated with calibration curves and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, and clinical utility was analyzed using decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve (CIC). Results Surgical approach, spinal computed tomography (CT) values, and multifidus skeletal muscle index (SMI) are independent predictors of postoperative NVCF in OVCF patients. A Nomogram model, based on the identified predictors, was developed and uploaded online. Internal validation results showed area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.801, 0.664, and 0.832 for the training set, validation set, and external validation, respectively. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit tests (χ2 = 7.311-14.474, p = 0.070-0.504) and calibration curves indicated good consistency between observed and predicted values. DCA and CIC demonstrated clinical net benefit within risk thresholds of 0.06-0.84, 0.12-0.23, and 0.01-0.27. At specificity 1.00-0.80, the partial AUC (0.106) exceeded that at sensitivity 1.00-0.80 (0.062). Conclusion Compared to the spinal CT value, the multifidus SMI has certain potential in predicting the occurrence of NVCF. Additionally, the Nomogram model of this study has a greater negative predictive value.

Distal junctional failure after corrective surgery without pelvic fixation for thoracolumbar junctional kyphosis due to osteoporotic vertebral fracture. J Orthop Sci 2024; 29:781-787. [PMID: 36931977 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2023.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thoracolumbar junctional kyphosis (TLJK) due to osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) negatively impacts patients' quality of life. The necessity of pelvic fixation in corrective surgery for TLJK due to OVF remains controversial. This study aimed to: 1) evaluate the surgical outcomes of major corrective surgery for thoracolumbar junctional kyphosis due to osteoporotic vertebral fracture, and 2) identify the risk factors for distal junctional failure to identify potential candidates for pelvic fixation. METHODS Patients who underwent surgical correction (fixed TLJK>40°, OVF located at T11-L2, the lowermost instrumented vertebra at or above L5) were included. Sagittal vertical axis, pelvic tilt, pelvic incidence, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis (L1-S1), local kyphosis, and lower lumbar lordosis (L4-S1) were assessed. Proximal and distal junctional kyphosis (P/DJK) and failures (P/DJF) were evaluated. Pre/postoperative spinopelvic parameters were compared between DJF and non-DJF patients. RESULTS Thirty-one patients (mean age: 72.3 ± 7.9 years) were included. PJK was observed in five patients (16.1%), while DJK in 11 (35.5%). Twelve cases (38.7%) were categorized as failure. Among the patients with PJK, there was only one patient (20%) categorized as PJF and required an additional surgery. Contrary, all of eleven patients with DJK were categorized as DJF, among whom six (54.5%) required additional surgery for pelvic fixation. In comparisons between DJF and non-DJF patients, there was no significant difference in pre/postoperative LK (pre/post, p = 0.725, p = 0.950). However, statistically significant differences were observed in the following preoperative alignment parameters: SVA (p = 0.014), LL (p = 0.001), LLL (p = 0.006), PT (p = 0.003), and PI-LL (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Spinopelvic parameters, which represent the compensatory function of lumbar hyperlordosis and pelvic retroversion, have notable impacts on surgical outcomes in correction surgery for TLJK due to OVF. Surgeons should consider each patient's compensatory function when choosing a surgical approach.

Abstract
Introduction Several studies have examined the risk factors for post-percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) refractures and developed many clinical prognostic models. However, no prior research exists using the Random Forest (RF) model, a favored tool for model development, to predict the occurrence of new vertebral compression fractures (NVCFs). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the risk factors for the occurrence of post-PKP fractures, compare the predictive performance of logistic regression and RF models in forecasting post-PKP fractures, and visualize the logistic regression model. Methods We collected clinical data from 349 patients who underwent PKP treatment at our institution from January 2018 to December 2021. Lasso regression was employed to select risk factors associated with the occurrence of NVCFs. Subsequently, logistic regression and RF models were established, and their predictive capabilities were compared. Finally, a nomogram was created. Results The variables selected using Lasso regression, including bone density, cement distribution, vertebral fracture location, preoperative vertebral height, and vertebral height restoration rate, were included in both the logistic regression and RF models. The area under the curves of the logistic regression and RF models were 0.868 and 0.786, respectively, in the training set and 0.786 and 0.599, respectively, in the validation set. Furthermore, the calibration curve of the logistic regression model also outperformed that of the RF model. Conclusion The logistic regression model provided better predictive capabilities for identifying patients at risk for post-PKP vertebral fractures than the RF model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postmenopausal women face a heightened risk of developing new vertebral compression fractures (NVCFs) following percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). This study aimed to develop and validate a visual nomogram model capable of accurately predicting NVCF occurrence post-PKP to optimize treatment strategies and minimize occurrence. METHODS This retrospective study included postmenopausal women diagnosed with OVCF who underwent PKP at the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2016 and January 2021. Patient data, including basic information, surgical details, imaging records, and laboratory findings, were collected. The patients were categorized into two groups based on NVCF occurrence within 2 years post-PKP: the NVCF group and the non-NVCF group. Following the utilization of least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression for feature selection, a nomogram was constructed. Model differentiation, calibration, and clinical applicability were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC), calibration, and decision (DCA) curve analyses. RESULTS In total, 357 patients were included in the study. LASSO regression analysis indicated that cement leakage, poor cement diffusion, and endplate fracture were independent predictors of NVCF. The nomogram demonstrated excellent predictive accuracy and clinical applicability. CONCLUSIONS This study used LASSO regression to identify three independent predictors of NVCF and developed a predictive model that could effectively predict NVCF occurrence in postmenopausal women. This simple prediction model can support medical decision-making and is feasible for clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND New vertebral compression fractures (NVCFs) are common adverse events in percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). The present study aimed to investigate the risk factors for NVCFs in patients after PKP and to construct a nomogram for the prediction of the risk of re-fracture. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patients after PKP surgery between January 2017 and December 2020. Patients were divided into an NVCF group (n = 225) and a control group (n = 94) based on the presence or absence of NVCFs, respectively, at follow-up within 2 years after surgery. Lasso regression was used to screen for risk factors for re-fracture. Based on the results, a Lasso-logistic regression model was developed, and its prediction performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves, calibration, and decision curve analysis. The model was visualized, and a nomogram was constructed. RESULTS A total of eight potential predictors were obtained from Lasso screening. Advanced age, low body mass index, low bone mineral density, lack of anti-osteoporosis treatment, low preoperative vertebral body height, vertebral body height recovery ≥ 2, cement leakage, and shape D (lack of simultaneous contact of bone cement with the upper and lower plates) were included in the logistic regression model. CONCLUSIONS A nomogram for predicting postoperative NVCF in PKP was developed and validated. This model can be used for rational assessment of the magnitude of the risk of developing NVCFs after PKP, and can help orthopedic surgeons make clinical decisions aimed at reducing the occurrence of NVCFs.

Risk factors and strategies for recovery quality, postoperative pain, and recurrent fractures between percutaneous kyphoplasty and percutaneous vertebroplasty in elderly patients with thoracolumbar compression fractures: a retrospective comparative cohort study. ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2023; 11:122. [PMID: 36819492 PMCID: PMC9929738 DOI: 10.21037/atm-22-6475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Background With the increase of clinical cases and the improvement of operation, we found that recurrent fracture of the adjacent vertebral body is a common long-term complication of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). However, the mechanism of re-fracture of adjacent vertebrae after PKP has not been unified. Therefore, through retrospective study, this paper discussed the risk factors and countermeasures affecting the quality of rehabilitation, postoperative pain and recurrent fracture in elderly PKP patients. Methods From December 2019 to May 2021, 313 patients with osteoporotic spinal fractures were analyzed retrospectively. Cases were allocated to percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP; n=130) and PKP (n=183) groups according to the modes of operation. Visual analogue scale (VAS), Cobb angle, and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were evaluated. Based on the occurrence of new fractures, the PKP cohort (n=15) and control cohort (n=32) were classified. Questionnaires analyzed the postoperative re-fractures of people with different characteristics, and the influencing factors of postoperative re-fracture were measured by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results The postoperative VAS scores were significantly lower in the PKP group. The ODI scores in the PKP group were considerably lower than those in the PVP group after surgery. Univariate analysis indicated that age, number of injured vertebrae, history of complicated fracture, number of operative vertebrae, and bone mineral density (BMD) were remarkably correlated with recurrent fracture after PKP. Logistic regression analysis indicated that age, operative vertebral body, BMD, and the number of injured vertebrae were independent risk factors for recurrent fracture after PKP. BMI, BMD, low back soft tissue injury, postoperative vertebral height recovery rate, sagittal Cobb angle improvement rate, total diffusion coefficient of bone cement, short-term complications, non-union, and recurrent fracture were the main risk factors of residual low back pain after PKP. Conclusions The clinical efficacy of PKP in elderly patients with thoracolumbar vertebral compression fracture is superior to that of PVP. Clinical attention should be paid to identifying high-risk factors for complications after PKP, and preventive measures should be implemented to help reduce the occurrence of recurrent fractures and postoperative residual pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND New vertebral compression fracture (VCF) may occur in patients who underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) or percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). However, the risk factors of new VCF remain controversial. The research aimed to analyze the risk factors of new VCF after PVP or PKP. METHODS From August 2019 to March 2021, we retrospectively analyzed the patients who underwent PVP or PKP for OVCF at our institution. Age, gender, body mass index (BMI), smoking, drinking, hypertension, diabetes, fracture location, surgical method, Hounsfield unit (HU) value, preoperative degree of anterior vertebral compression (DAVC), bisphosphonates, bone cement volume, bone cement leakage, and cement distribution were collected. The risk factors were obtained by univariate and multivariate analysis of the data. RESULTS A total of 247 patients were included in the study. There were 23 patients (9.3%) with new VCF after PVP or PKP. Univariate analysis showed that age (p < 0.001), BMI (p = 0.002), fracture location (p = 0.030), and a low HU value (p < 0.001) were significantly associated with new VCF after PVP or PKP. A low HU value was an independent risk factor for new VCF after PVP or PKP obtained by multivariate regression analysis (OR = 0.963; 95% CI, 0.943-0.984, p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this study, a low HU value was an independent risk factor of new VCF after PVP or PKP.
