DOI: 10.1227/neu.0000000000002097
Abstract: BACKGROUND: In general, stiffness-related functional disability (SRFD) is expected to increase as longer fusion length, but there have been no studies on factors affecting SRFD besides fusion length. OBJECTIVE: To identify the factors affecting SRFD… read more here.
