| Abstract | Summary form only given. Trauma and disorders are the major cause of spinal cord injuries at the C1-C level, which have resulted in complete or incomplete loss of sensory and motor functions. More and more accidents occur, which spend a lot of money in surgical treatment and rehabilitation. Conservative therapy or surgical treatment with internal fixation devices has been commonly used to stabilize the spine and enhance spine fusion for minimized compression in spinal cod leading to neurological deficits and other secondary injuries. The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of various internal fixation devices for improving rotation stiffness of unstable atlanto-axial joint using a canine model. The results indicated that posterolateral plating provided the optimal stiffness across C1-2 in all the 6 tested directions than did the other 2 techniques although both the latter also had significantly increased stiffness compared to control group (P<0.05). Also, the results supported the use of each tested stabilization techniques for fixing the atlanto-axial instability. For preserving the optimal C1-2 motibility, procedures such as posterior wiring and/or Halifax interlaminar clamping rather than posterolateral plating and screwing should be considered first. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
