Low lumbar fractures: does thoracolumbar injury classification and severity score work?
The authors think that there are factors involved in treating low lumbar injuries that are not inclusive to the TLICS system. Overall, there was only "fair" reliability for low lumbar injuries. The maintenance of lordosis and global sagittal alignment is paramount when dealing with low lumbar injuries and not considered in TLICS. L3 injuries tend to behave like thoracolumbar injuries but there is a wide variation in classification between L4-L5 and thoracolumbar injuries.
BRS and HRV did not detect CAN in older diabetic patients better than classic autonomic testing.
