Functional outcome
no changein humans1
Thoracolumbar noncontiguous spinal fractures were not clearly linked with functional outcome in humans (older patients surgically treated for traumatic cervical spine injuries).
“The presence of thoracolumbar NSF was not associated with functional outcome.”

Ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament is linked with a lower risk of thoracolumbar noncontiguous spinal fractures in humans (older patients surgically treated for traumatic cervical spine injuries) (OR: 0.12).
“whereas the presence of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament was negatively associated with NSF (OR: 0.12)”
