兔颈椎终板胶原结构变化对运动节段力学性能的影响

目的 通过测定兔退变颈椎运动节段力学参数的改变,观测其软骨终板胶原的超微结构变化,为退变的椎间盘显现异常力学特性作材料结构上的探讨。方法 将24只家兔随机分为对照组和模型组,模型组家兔保持45°低屈曲位5 h/d,取C5,6、C6,7进行生物力学测定,同时电镜观察终板胶原组织结构改变,总结分析终板材料的结构变化对运动节段力学性能的影响。结果 模型组终板抗扭强度、抗压强度、断裂时的最大形变都低于对照组,胶原排列从有序、致密、规整到紊乱、松散、溶解,并随造模进程的深入而加剧。结论 长时间的应力不均状态,造成椎间盘终板材料力学特性改变;终板胶原结构改变是颈椎间盘生物力学性能减退的原因之一。     

早期扩髓髓内钉固定治疗合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折

目的探讨合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折早期扩髓及髓内钉固定是否增加并发症及死亡率. 方法采用回顾性对比分析,依据下列标准选择病例(1) 年龄在17～65岁;(2) 必须有胸部损伤[简明损伤定级(AIS)≥2], 且损伤严重度评分(ISS)≥16;(3) 住院时间≥48 h;(4) 病史中无明显影响全身状况的疾病, 如糖尿病, 慢性心、肺、肾功能不全等;(5) 有股骨干骨折, 且进行了扩髓髓内钉固定, 不含钢板、外固定支架或牵引及石膏固定者.并按受伤至手术时间划分为两组, A组为<24 h手术者(早期扩髓组), B组为≥24 h手术者(延期扩髓组),将两组间合并伤情况、ISS、住院时间、ICU时间、并发症、死亡及合并休克情况进行比较. 结果有96例符合上述标准, 其中A组57例, B组39例,经统计学处理, 两组间仅在股骨开放性骨折发生率(A组53%,B组31%,χ2=4.496, P<0.05)、合并休克率(A组51%, B组28%,χ2=4.895, P<0.05 )及住院时间[A组为(17.5±6.5)d, B组为(31.5±9.5)d,t=8.599, P<0.001]上差异有显著性意义和非常显著性意义, 而两组并发症发生率和死亡率等方面比较, 差异无显著性意义(P>0.05). 结论在合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折中,只要能控制休克,保证生命体征平稳,对股骨干骨折行早期扩髓髓内钉固定不增加患者的并发症发生率及死亡率,并可促进患者早日康复,缩短住院时间.     

CT重建椎弓根轴线投影点定位研究

目的:建立椎弓根螺钉最佳入钉点,提高椎弓根螺钉内固定术的准确性和安全性。方法:高速螺旋CT共扫描检查40例国人的200个L1~L5脊椎。重建后测量400个椎弓根的入点坐标(x,y),即椎弓根轴线在椎骨后表面的投影点与后正中线的距离(x)及与横突中线的垂直距离(y)。结果:x坐标从L1~L5逐渐增大,男性大于女性(P<0.05);y坐标从L1到L4逐渐下移,在L4与横突中线接近重叠,但L5突然上升,与L2节段水平相当,L1~L5y坐标基本上都在横突中线以上,但每组数据变异较大。就y坐标而言,椎弓根轴线投影点与传统入点比较均有差异。结论:横突中线是椎弓根螺钉置入的重要参照标志,但椎弓根轴线投影点并不在横突中线上,不同个体、节段之间y坐标存在的较大差异是高误置率发生的重要原因。对个体而言,术前常规通过CT测量椎弓根轴线在椎骨后表面的投影点数据对椎弓根螺钉的置入有重要指导意义。     

腰椎间盘突出症早期手术并发症的回顾性分析

腰椎间盘突出是腰腿痛的主要原因,因患病率高,手术开展较为普及,关于其手术后并发症的相关报导也逐渐增多。为了进一步了解这些并发症的发生原因,我们将1993年2月至2004年12月手术治疗腰椎间盘突出症768例中所发生的74例早期并发症进行回顾性分析,针对手术的危险因素提出相应的     

Upper thoracic myelopathy caused by vertebral collapse and subluxation in rheumatoid arthritis: report of two cases

We report two cases of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with upper thoracic myelopathy and a review of the literature. Clinical data of a 47-year-old woman (case 1) and a 54-year-old woman (case 2) are described. Case 1 showed a transverse-type myelopathy at the T2 segment level of the spinal cord and case 2 had the same type of myelopathy at the T4 segment level. Case 1 had anterior vertebral subluxation of C7 due to marked vertebral collapse and Case 2 had subluxation of T2 with vertebral destruction. These two patients had the mutilating type of RA with multilevel spontaneous fusion in the cervical spine. The lesions in the thoracic spine might be caused by the severe destructive inflammation that is characteristic in mutilating disease. The vertebral collapse might lead to subluxation of the upper thoracic vertebra, resulting in spinal cord compression. Upper thoracic subluxation might be caused by vertebral collapse due to RA and the increased motion as a compensation for decreased mobility caused by spontaneous fusion in the cervical spine.     

葛根素对抗H2O2引起血管平滑肌细胞凋亡及坏死

目的：研究葛根素对过氧化氢引起无血清培养的小牛主动脉血管平滑肌细胞凋亡和坏死的影响。方法：通过体外细胞培养，以噻唑兰（MTT）法测定细胞存活率，用流式细胞术检测细胞DNA含量及凋亡细胞百分率；DNA琼脂糖凝胶电泳法观察细胞凋亡过程中DNA断裂程度。结果：H2O2诱导无血清培养的平滑肌细胞凋亡，葛根素可显著降低平滑肌细胞中凋亡细胞百分率，并减少凋亡细胞DNA断裂，同时也减少其引起的平滑肌细胞坏死。结论：葛根素可对抗H2O2引起的无血清培养的血管平滑肌细胞凋凋亡及坏死。

Plastic surgical treatment of a chronic thoracic duct fistula using a sternocleidomastoid muscle flap — a case report

Thoracic duct fistula is a rare but potentially serious complication of head and neck surgery. Such fistulae may be difficult to treat, and several techniques, both operative and non-operative, have been advocated. A case of successful surgical treatment of a chronic thoracic duct fistula is presented. The fistula occurred in a 51-year-old female following treatment of a solitary supraclavicular breast metastasis by local excision and radiotherapy. The divided duct was ligated and the area was covered with the clavicular head of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.     

Preoperative metoprolol improves cardiovascular stability and reduces oxygen consumption after thoracotomy

Background : Increased sympathetic activity perioperatively and associated cardiovascular effects play a central role in cardiovascular complications. High thoracic epidural blockade attenuates the sympathetic response, but even with complete pain relief, haemodynamic and endocrine responses are still present. Beta–adrenoceptor blockade is effective in situations with increased sympathetic activity. This study was designed to evaluate the perioperative haemodynamic effect of preoperative βblockade and its influence on the haemodynamic aspects of the surgical stress response.
Methods : Thirty–six otherwise healthy patients undergoing elective thoracotomy for lung resection were randomised doubleblinded to receive either 100 mg metoprolol or placebo preoperatively. Anaesthesia was combined high thoracic epidural block and general anaesthesia. The epidural analgesia was continued during recovery. Patients were monitored with ECG, pulse oximetry, invasive haemodynamic monitoring, arterial blood gases and electrolytes.
Results : After induction of anaesthesia the mean arterial pressure (MAP) decreased in both groups, and decreased further in the placebo group after initiation of the epidural block. The heart rate (HR) was slightly less throughout the observation period after metoprolol. Peroperatively, the only difference in measured haemodynamics was a marginally higher MAP after metoprolol. Postoperative cardiac index (CI) was lower with a lower variability and cardiac filling pressures were slightly higher in the metoprolol group. The oxygen consumption index was higher after placebo throughout the observation period, with no difference in the oxygen delivery.
Conclusion. We found that preoperative β–blockade during combined general anaesthesia and high thoracic epidural blockade stabilised perioperative HR and CI and decreased total oxygen consumption.
