Impairment of cerebral autoregulation during the development of chronic cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage in primates.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Lumbar discectomy is the most commonly performed spine procedure. Academic spine centers with potentially differing caseloads and experience may have different outcomes. OBJECTIVE:To determine whether the choice of center in which surgery is performed affects lumbar discectomy outcomes. METHODS:Spine Patie...
