目的:本研究探讨了死亡年龄之间的相互作用,性别、职业和存在,Schmorl节点的位置和严重性。
方法:327个人的脊柱,180名(55.1%)男性和147名(44.9%)女性,死亡年龄在20到65岁之间,已知的职业。
方法:根据位置和严重程度记录Schmorl的淋巴结存在/不存在。
结果:在此示例中,58.7%(192/327)的个体受到Schmorl节点的影响,75.6%(136/180)为男性,38.1%(56/147)为女性,差异有统计学意义(p=0.000)。Schmorl淋巴结最常见于T7-L2(占所有Schmorl淋巴结的77.1%)椎骨和椎体表面的中心(73.4%)。年龄和职业类别与患病率无关,数量或严重程度。
结论:男性似乎比女性更容易发展Schmorl节点。在这项研究中,Schmorl节点的患病率不随年龄增加,也不是男性所持有的职业类型。
结论:这项研究拒绝了所谓的Schmorl节点的患病率与年龄和身体压力之间的关联。
结论:尚不清楚个人是否一生都从事相同的职业或从事该职业的时间。此外,当个人开发Schmorl的节点时,它是不可能访问的。
■评估20岁以下个体中Schmorl淋巴结的发生,并探索椎骨形态与Schmorl淋巴结发生之间的可能联系。
OBJECTIVE: This study explores the interplay between age-at-death, sex and occupation and the presence, location and severity of Schmorl\'s nodes.
METHODS: Vertebral columns of 327 individuals, 180 (55.1%) males and 147 (44.9%) females, with age-at-death between 20 and 65 years old, with known occupation.
METHODS: Schmorl\'s nodes were recorded as present/absent and by location and severity.
RESULTS: In this sample, 58.7% (192/327) of individuals were affected by Schmorl\'s nodes, 75.6% (136/180) were males and 38.1% (56/147) were females, with statistically significant differences (p=0.000). Schmorl\'s nodes were most commonly found on the T7-L2 (77.1% of all Schmorl\'s nodes) vertebrae and at the center (73.4%) of the vertebral body surface. Age and occupational categories did not correlate with prevalence, quantity or severity.
CONCLUSIONS: Males appear more prone to develop Schmorl\'s nodes than females. In this study, the prevalence of Schmorl\'s nodes does not increase with age, nor with the type of occupation held by males.
CONCLUSIONS: This study rejects the purported associations between prevalence of Schmorl\'s nodes and age and physical stress.
CONCLUSIONS: It is unknown whether individuals had the same occupation throughout their lives or for how long they performed it. Additionally, it is impossible to access when the individual developed the Schmorl\'s node.
UNASSIGNED: Evaluate the onset of Schmorl\'s nodes in individuals under 20 and explore possible links between vertebral morphology and the occurrence of Schmorl\'s nodes.
