| Abstract | Objective This study aims to investigate the associated factors of intercostal neuralgia in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF) of the thoracic spine and to develop a predictive model to assess the likelihood of patients developing intercostal neuralgia following thoracic vertebral fractures. Methods The retrospective study involved 518 patients with thoracic OVCF treated at our hospital, among whom those with and without intercostal neuralgia were matched at a 1:1 ratio.Relevant basic clinical data and imaging parameters of the patients were recorded, t-test was used for continuous variables and chi-square test for categorical variables to determine the factors associated with intercostal neuralgia. Subsequently, the above associated variables were screened using univariate and multivariate logistic regression models to obtain associated factors. Finally, a prediction model for osteoporotic thoracic spine fracture was developed and validated. Results This study included a total of 104 patients based on the presence or absence of intercostal neuralgia.The results of multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that injured vertebral intervertebral foraminal area (P = 0.0008, regression coefficient estimate 0.0490, 95% confidence interval 0.0219–0.0798, OR = 1.0503), injured vertebral intervertebral foraminal volume (P = 0.0001, regression coefficient value − 0.0028, 95% confidence interval − 0.0044 to -0.0015, OR = 0.9972), and nerve root area (P = 0.0038, regression coefficient estimate=-0.0876, 95% confidence interval − 0.1506 to -0.0309, OR = 0.9161) were independent associated factors.The fatty degeneration ratio have a positive promotional effect on the probability of developing intercostal pain.The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the prediction model was 0.851, which indicated that the line graph model had a certain degree of predictive validity. Conclusion Thoracic osteoporotic fractures are a common geriatric disease, and changes in the morphological parameters of the intervertebral foramina, such as a reduction in the area and volume of the injured vertebral intervertebral foramina, as well as fatty degeneration of the thoracic back muscles, suggest an increased probability of developing intercostal neuralgia. |

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.
