人体腰椎活动节段应力分布的实验研究

本文采用三维光弹性实验方法观察了正常腰椎活动节段的应力分布。用精密浇铸,严格几何相似的光弹性环氧树脂腰椎和硅橡胶椎间盘模型进行三维光弹性实验,并观察腰椎的等应力差图和有效应力值分布。本实验观察到,腰椎椎体上下缘应力分布较均匀对称,其后缘应力大于前缘,后部结构应力较小。作者认为,三维光弹性实验方法具有直观性强,能有效和准确地确定腰椎的应力分布,对腰椎生物力学研究具有重要的实用价值。腰椎后缘应力大于前缘,使椎体后缘承载较大,将会增加腰椎间盘退变和损伤的机会,这可能是引起腰腿痛的重要因素。

Morphometric analysis of the thoracic and lumbar spine in Japanese on the use of pedicle screws

The pedicle screw and hook have become popular instruments in treating spinal deformity and disease. This study gathered morphological data on thoracic and lumbar spines in a Japanese population that should serve as useful reference for posterior instrumentation surgery. One hundred and three dry bones were used to investigate the morphology of pedicle and facet in thoracic and lumbar spines. Measurements included the diameter and axial length of pedicle from T8 to L5, height and width of facets and thickness of articular processes from T1 to T12, and axial angle of pedicle from T1 to L5. The diameter and axial length of pedicle were smallest at T8, diameter was largest at L5 and axial length was largest at L3. Height of facets and thickness of articular processes were largest at T12. Men tended to have larger pedicles and facets than women. Transverse angle of pedicle was smallest at T12. These precise data may provide useful information when performing posterior instrumentation surgery and when developing new spinal implant systems for Asians.

目的探讨三种手术方式对腰椎间盘突出症(LDH)临床疗效的影响。方法 2007年1月~2012年10月于我科行手术治疗LDH的患者中选择110例患者,男63例,女47例;年龄18~73岁,平均45岁;均为单节段椎间盘突出(L3/46例,L4/560例,L5/S144例)。分别采用腰椎间盘髓核摘除术(A组,40例)、椎间融合联合单侧椎弓根螺钉内固定(B组,51例)、腰椎间盘髓核摘除联合棘突间稳定装置X-STOP系统植入(C组,19例),3组患者一般资料比较差异均无统计学意义(0.05)。每位患者术前及术后末次随访时通过完成欧洲五维健康量表及进行Oswestry功能障碍指数评分,比较评分改善情况。结果 110例患者均获得随访,平均随访时间18个月(6~38个月),末次随访时EQ-VAS评分、EQ-5D健康指数和ODI评分组内比较均明显改善(0.05),组间比较均无统计学差异(0.05)。结论对于单纯LDH可行腰椎间盘髓核摘除术,LDH合并腰椎不稳者可行椎间融合+单侧椎弓根螺钉内固定,对于椎间盘突出合并椎管狭窄,尤其是临床症状在屈曲位缓解的患者尤其适宜椎间盘髓核摘除联合棘突间动态内固定。     

A String Matching Computer-Assisted System for Dolphin Photoidentification

This paper presents a syntactic/semantic string representation scheme as well as a string matching method as part of a computer-assisted system to identify dolphins from photographs of their dorsal fins. A low-level string representation is constructed from the curvature function of a dolphin's fin trailing edge, consisting of positive and negative curvature primitives. A high-level string representation is then built over the low-level string via merging appropriate groupings of primitives in order to have a less sensitive representation to curvature fluctuations or noise. A family of syntactic/semantic distance measures between two strings is introduced. A composite distance measure is then defined and used as a dissimilarity measure for database search, highlighting both the syntax (structure or sequence) and semantic (attribute or feature) differences. The syntax consists of an ordered sequence of significant protrusions and intrusions on the edge, while the semantics consist of seven attributes extracted from the edge and its curvature function. The matching results are reported for a database of 624 images corresponding to 164 individual dolphins. The identification results indicate that the developed string matching method performs better than the previous matching methods including dorsal ratio, curvature, and curve matching. The developed computer-assisted system can help marine mammalogists in their identification of dolphins, since it allows them to examine only a handful of candidate images instead of the currently used manual searching of the entire database. © 2000 Biomedical Engineering Society.

Synaptic organization of dorsal root projections to lumbar motoneurons in the clawed toad (Xenopus laevis)

Summary Synaptic connexions between dorsal root primary afferents and lumbar motoneurons have been investigated in the isolated spinal cord of the clawed toad. The study of monosynaptic actions evoked in motoneurons by 9th or 10th dorsal root stimulation or by impulses in single primary afferents provided evidence for both electrical and chemical junctional transmission at the sensory-motor synapses. The anterograde filling of the 9th and 10th dorsal roots with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) shows that afferents do project to the motoneuron field of the segments IX and X. Some of the fibres not only reach the dorsally located motoneurons, but also cross the lateral motor column (LMC) and terminate in the marginal zone of ventral horn gray matter. The projections of the 9th and 10th dorsal root fibres are most numerous in the caudal part of segment X. Simultaneous HRP labeling of single motoneurons and the whole 10th dorsal root has revealed that afferent fibres make contacts not only on the distal dendrites of the motor cells, but also on the proximal ones. This latter finding is in a good agreement with the electrophysiological data.Dr. Shiriaev died September 11, 1984
