ISSLS Prize in Bioengineering Science 2022: low rate cyclic loading as a therapeutic strategy for intervertebral disc regeneration.
Capogna EA, Brown E, Walrath E, Furst W, Dong Q, Zhou CM, Gullbrand SE, Vo NV, Sowa GA, Ledet EH. Capogna EA, et al. Among authors: sowa ga. Eur Spine J. 2022 May;31(5):1088-1098. doi: 10.1007/s00586-022-07239-2. Epub 2022 May 6. Eur Spine J. 2022. PMID: 35524071
BACKGROUND: The intervertebral disc degenerates with age and has a poor propensity for regeneration. Small molecule transport plays a key role in long-term degradation and repair. Convection (bulk flow), induced by low rate cyclic loading of the intervertebral disc, has be …

FL was not necessary at the extremes of the flexion-extension (FE) motion path but peaked through the neutral position, whereas, a large negative value of AL was necessary in extension and increased linearly to a large positive value in flexion. Although further validation is req …

NSAID use in intervertebral disc degeneration: what are the effects on matrix homeostasis in vivo?
Vaudreuil N, Kadow T, Yurube T, Hartman R, Ngo K, Dong Q, Pohl P, Coelho JP, Kang J, Vo N, Sowa G. Vaudreuil N, et al. Among authors: sowa g. Spine J. 2017 Aug;17(8):1163-1170. doi: 10.1016/j.spinee.2017.04.012. Epub 2017 Apr 14. Spine J. 2017. PMID: 28416438 Free PMC article.
CONCLUSIONS: Oral indomethacin administration did not result in acceleration of IDD in an in vivo rabbit model. Future research is needed to ascertain long-term effects of indomethacin and other NSAIDs on disc matrix homeostasis....

Predictive validity of the Spinal Cord Injury Pressure Ulcer Scale (SCIPUS) in acute care and inpatient rehabilitation in individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury.
Krishnan S, Brick RS, Karg PE, Tzen YT, Garber SL, Sowa GA, Brienza DM. Krishnan S, et al. Among authors: sowa ga. NeuroRehabilitation. 2016 Apr 6;38(4):401-9. doi: 10.3233/NRE-161331. NeuroRehabilitation. 2016. PMID: 27061168
CONCLUSIONS: The SCIPUS could predict PrU occurring within 2-3 days following administration during acute, but unable to predict over a longer term within acute or inpatient rehabilitation. Improved PrU risk assessment following SCI may be possible with modification to the …
