Completed
Conditions
Sagittal Alignment
Interventions
Radiation: whole spine X-ray
Registration Number
NCT04958590

Brief Summary

This study is aimed to demonstrate the standing and sitting spino-pelvic sagittal alignment in Chinese population, then to explore the influence of spinal fusion on the changes when moving from standing to sitting positon.

GroupInterventionDescription
2 (patients)whole spine X-raythe patients who underwent posterior lumbar fusion surgery for lumbar degenerative disease has been followed up for three months.
1 (asymptomatic)whole spine X-raythe middle-aged and elderly Chinese asymptomatic population who underwent the whole spine X-ray in standing and sitting positions.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Group 2 The sagittal spinal parameters in degrees3 months after surgery

The parameters included TPA (T1 pelvic angle,the angle between the line from the axis of the femoral head to the center of T1 and the line from the axis of the femoral head to the midpoint of the S1 endplate), lumbar lordosis (LL,the angle between the upper endplate of L1 and S1), thoracic kyphosis (TK,The angle between the upper endplate of T4 and the lower endplate of T12), pelvic incidence (PI,The angle between the line perpendicular to the midpoint of the sacral plate and the line connecting this to the midpoint of the hip axis), pelvic tilt (PT,The angle between the line from the middle of the sacral plate to the middle of the hip axis and the vertical line), sacral slope (SS,The angle between the sacral endplate and the horizontal line)

Group 1 The sagittal spinal parameters in millimeter6 months after study started

SVA (sagittal vertical axis, The offset between the center of C7 and the plumb line drawn from posterosuperior corner of S1)

Group 1 The sagittal spinal parameters in degrees6 months after study started

The parameters included TPA (T1 pelvic angle,the angle between the line from the axis of the femoral head to the center of T1 and the line from the axis of the femoral head to the midpoint of the S1 endplate), lumbar lordosis (LL,the angle between the upper endplate of L1 and S1), thoracic kyphosis (TK,The angle between the upper endplate of T4 and the lower endplate of T12), pelvic incidence (PI,The angle between the line perpendicular to the midpoint of the sacral plate and the line connecting this to the midpoint of the hip axis), pelvic tilt (PT,The angle between the line from the middle of the sacral plate to the middle of the hip axis and the vertical line), sacral slope (SS,The angle between the sacral endplate and the horizontal line)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Group 2 Back pain assessed by the VAS3 months after surgery

The Visual Analog Scale (0-10) is used to evaluate back pain.Higher scores mean a worse outcome

Group 2 Leg pain assessed by the VAS3 months after surgery

The Visual Analog Scale (0-10) is used to evaluate leg pain.Higher scores mean a worse outcome.

Group 2 Disability assessed by the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)3 months after surgery

The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) (0-100) is used to assess disability.Higher scores mean a worse outcome.
