| 20110295369 | Method of Treating Scoliosis Using a Biological Implant - The present invention is a bone growth stimulating and promoting cytokine type biological implant preferably comprising PTH coated with a controlled release biodegradable coating that is implanted preferably in the concave side of a scoliotically curved spine in combination with a bone growth inhibiting type biological implant preferably comprising methotrexate or like anti-metabolite coated with a controlled release biodegradable coating that is implanted preferably in the convex side of a scoliotically curved spine. The insertion of the biological implant is highly non-invasion, especially as compared to more conventional spine surgical methods, and the biological implant does not decrease spinal mobility or spinal range of motion. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20100003691 | Genetic Markers Associated with Degenerative Disc Disease and Uses Thereof - The present invention relates to novel genetic markers associated with degenerative disc disease (DDD), risk of developing DDD and risk of DDD progression, and methods and materials for determining whether a human subject has DDD, is at risk of developing DDD or is at risk of DDD progression. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20090105822 | Method of Treating Scoliosis Using a Biological Implant - The present invention is a bone growth stimulating and promoting cytokine type biological implant preferably comprising PTH coated with a controlled release biodegradable coating that is implanted preferably in the concave side of a scoliotically curved spine in combination with a bone growth inhibiting type biological implant preferably comprising methotrexate or like anti-metabolite coated with a controlled release biodegradable coating that is implanted preferably in the convex side of a scoliotically curved spine. The insertion of the biological implant is highly non-invasion, especially as compared to more conventional spine surgical methods, and the biological implant does not decrease spinal mobility or spinal range of motion. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090104620 | Simplified Method of Determining Predisposition to Scoliosis - The present invention relates to novel genetic markers associated with scoliosis, risk of developing scoliosis and risk of scoliosis curve progression, and simplified methods and materials for determining whether a human subject has scoliosis, is at risk of developing scoliosis or is at risk of scoliosis curve progression. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090035772 | Genetic Markers Associated With Scoliosis And Uses Thereof - The present invention relates to novel genetic markers associated with scoliosis, risk of developing scoliosis and risk of scoliosis curve progression, and methods and materials for determining whether a human subject has scoliosis, is at risk of developing scoliosis or is at risk of scoliosis curve progression. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20080262402 | Method and Apparatus For Dynamic Scoliosis Orthosis - The invention is a three-contact-point dynamic scoliosis orthosis (DSO) brace to aid physicians treating scoliosis. A pelvic mold and two pads, one positioned above the apex of the spine curvature, the other positioned orthogonal to the apex of the spine curvature provide the anchor points on opposite sides of the curve. The pad orthogonal to the curve's apex is adjustable. | 10-23-2008 |
