Nonoperative treatment.

OBJECT: Despite extensive published research on thoracolumbar burst fractures, controversy still surrounds which is the most appropriate treatment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the scientific literature on operative and nonoperative treatment of patients with thoracolumbar burst fractures and no neurological deficit. METHODS: In their search of the literature, the authors identified all possible relevant studies concerning thoracolumbar burst fracture without neurological deficit. Two independent observers performed study selection, methodological quality assessment, and data extraction in a blinded and objective manner for all papers identified during the search. In a synthesis of the literature, the authors obtained evidence for both operative and nonoperative treatments. CONCLUSIONS: There is a lack of evidence demonstrating the superiority of one approach over the other as measured using generic and disease-specific health-related quality of life scales. There is no scientific evidence linking posttraumatic kyphosis to clinical outcomes. The authors found that there is a strong need for improved clinical research methodology to be applied to this patient population.

Therapeutic applications of ultrasound.

Therapeutic applications of ultrasound predate its use in imaging. A range of biological effects can be induced by ultrasound, depending on the exposure levels used. At low levels, beneficial, reversible cellular effects may be produced, whereas at high intensities instantaneous cell death is sought. Therapy ultrasound can therefore be broadly divided into "low power" and "high power" applications. The "low power" group includes physiotherapy, fracture repair, sonophoresis, sonoporation and gene therapy, whereas the most common use of "high power" ultrasound in medicine is probably now high intensity focused ultrasound. Therapeutic effect through the intensity spectrum is obtained by both thermal and non-thermal interaction mechanisms. At low intensities, acoustic streaming is likely to be significant, but at higher levels, heating and acoustic cavitation will predominate. While useful therapeutic effects are now being demonstrated clinically, the mechanisms by which they occur are often not well understood.

Evaluating vitamin D status. Implications for preventing and managing osteoporosis and other chronic diseases.

Recent studies have added new dimensions to the fund of knowledge on vitamin D. In addition to the classic role of vitamin D in preventing rickets and osteomalacia, a preventive effect against osteoporotic fractures has been convincingly established, and abundant evidence suggests a role in preventing malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Serum 25-OH-vitamin D assay is a simple test for evaluating vitamin D status. However, recent review articles indicate that current reference ranges for serum 25-OH-vitamin D are too low. An appropriate lower normal limit may be between 50-100 nmol/l (20-40 ng/ml). Standard supplement dosages may fail to provide concentrations above this range.
