Induction of tolerance against ischemia/reperfusion injury in the rat brain by preconditioning with the endotoxin analog diphosphoryl lipid A.

abstract：:Secure fixation of the sacrum is technically challenging. The bone of the dorsal sacral surface is often thin, making hook fixation tenuous. The use of bone screws in the sacral pedicles has gained popularity, but rigidity is often not achieved and screw pullout is common. Solid constructs have been achieved using ang...
