Objective:To study the relationship between the end-plate calcification and cervical intervertebral disc degeneration and vertebral osteophyte formation.
目的:研究颈椎软骨终板钙化与颈椎间盘退变和颈椎椎体骨赘形成的关系。
Conclusions: This result biochemically supports that the vertebral osteophyte arises from proliferating peripheral articular cartilage, which had been observed histologically.
