Also, here's this weird thing:

Cyanocobalamin cannot cross the blood-brain barrier, while mythelcobalamin can. This is why you should use the latter (not the former) for neuropathy caused by B12-deficiency.

This is called "cage and plate" implant. It's the conventional and classic technique.

There's a different "cage" technique that's called: zero-profile ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy & Fusion)

هذا الفرق بين الـ cage & plate
وبين الـ zero-profile

A: Zero-profile ACDF
B: Cage & plate ACDF

Blood supply of the spinal cord

"ثلث بثنين، ثلثين بواحد"

ثلثين الـ spinal cord يغذيهن شريان واحد هو الـ anterior spinal
ثلث الـ spinal cord تغذيه شرايين ثنين هنّ الـ posterior spinal

الثلثين هاي هنّ الـ anterior المسؤولات عن الـ motor function وبما أنّ شريان واحد هو اللي يوصل الدم لهذا الجزء من الحبل الشوكي، معناها أنّه معرّض للـ ischemia أكثر من الثلث الـ posterior

Myasthenia gravis has a bimodal age-related onset, with onset in the second or third decades more common in women and onset in the sixth or seventh decades more common in men.
