腰椎间盘突出症动物模型的研究进展

近年来,腰椎间盘突出症发病率逐渐增高,由于动物模型对于阐明疾病发病机制及评估新的治疗方法具有重要作用,越来越多的学者开始研究如何建立合适的、能够更好地模拟人类腰椎间盘突出的动物模型。近期的研究多选用包括大鼠、兔、羊、猪等动物作为实验对象,通过物理或化学方式直接损伤其椎间盘或神经根,或通过限制实验动物的行为动作、改变其饲养环境以及性别年龄导致的生理因素等方式诱导其出现椎间盘退变。各种造模方法均有其特点及局限性,适用于不同情况,有必要继续完善。     

不同直腿抬高扳腿法对推拿治疗腰椎间盘突出症临床疗效的影响

目的探讨不同直腿抬高扳腿法对推拿治疗腰椎间盘突出症临床疗效的影响。方法选择2018年5月—2019年1月在广西中医药大学第一附属医院推拿科治疗的腰椎间盘突出症患者100例,随机分为对照组与观察组各50例。2组均采用相同的松解类推拿手法治疗,治疗过程中观察组采用改进的直腿抬高扳腿法,对照组采用常规的直腿抬高扳腿法。2组均以治疗6次为1个疗程,疗程之间间隔1 d,共治疗4个疗程。观察2组治疗效果及治疗前后患侧直腿抬高角度、疼痛视觉模拟评分(VAS评分)、日本骨科学会腰椎功能量表评分(JOA评分)变化和治疗过程中可能发生的不良反应。结果观察组与对照组愈显率分别为74%(37/50)、54%(27/50),总有效率分别为96%(48/50)、94%(47/50),观察组愈显率明显高于对照组(P<0.05),2组总有效率比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。与治疗前比较,治疗后2组患者患侧直腿抬高角度均显著增大(P均<0.05),VAS评分均显著降低(P均<0.05),JOA评分均显著升高(P均<0.05);治疗后2组比较,观察组患侧直腿抬高角度显著大于对照组(P<0.05),VAS评分显著低于对照组(P<0.05),JOA评分显著高于对照组(P<0.05)。观察组患者均未出现疼痛症状加重等手法反应,对照组有7例患者出现不同程度的腰臀疼痛症状加重。结论在采用推拿手法治疗腰椎间盘突出症时,改进的直腿抬高扳腿法较常规的直腿抬高扳腿法疗效更为显著,可能发生的不良反应更少。     

Prevalence of degenerative disease in temporomandibular disorder patients with disc displacement: A systematic review and meta-analysis

To assess the available literature on the prevalence of degenerative joint disease (DJD) in patients with anterior disc displacement (ADD) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), using a systematic review with meta-analysis.Search strategies were performed in the following databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus, and LIVIVO. A search was also carried out in the gray literature. Two independent reviewers selected the included articles using a two-phase process based on the eligibility criteria. Three reviewers independently collected the required information from the included articles. The methodological quality of the selected studies was assessed individually.In accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 1349 studies were found and 18 articles were included. The total sample size was 3158 TMJs. The sex distribution was predominant for females (1161 females and 345 males). The average age was 46 (range 10–82) years. Among the 1762 TMJs quantitatively assessed, the prevalence of DJD involving disc displacement with reduction (DDWR) was 35%, while for disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR) the prevalence was 66%. The prevalences of different features of DJD were as follows: sclerosis 24.3%, erosion 23.5%, osteophyte 17.9%, and subcortical cyst 7.6%.The prevalence of DJD in temporomandibular disorder patients with disc displacement is around 50% and is higher in DDWoR (66%) than in DDWR (35%). Sclerosis and erosion would be the most expected radiological signs in a developing DJD. Clinicians should adequately address the frequent DJD features associated with disc displacement in terms of diagnostics and therapeutic management.

Fracture mechanics of circular discs with a V-notch subjected to wedging

ObjectiveA method proposed for determining the fracture toughness (FT) of dental materials involves a ‘roller’ wedging open a V-notch in a cylindrical specimen. There are a number of problems with the design of this test and its mechanical analysis, and thus with the validity of the results obtained, were it to be used. Firstly, friction is ignored in calculating the horizontal wedging force. Secondly, the test specimen does not make use of a pre-crack at the notch tip. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of these factors on the FT calculated.MethodsAn analytical solution for the mode-I stress intensity factor (K_I) of the compact tension specimen, which bears some similarities, is taken to be applicable. The mechanics of the specimen has been reanalysed, with a finite-element study of the resultant stresses, and compared with the compact-tension test.ResultsThe assumed analytical solution can provide accurate estimates for K_I for the V notched specimen. However, the apparent agreement is due to the fortuitous combination of an overestimated horizontal wedging force and an underestimated stress singularity at the crack tip. In any case, ignoring friction will lead to an overestimate of FT.SignificanceIt is concluded that the test as presented is invalid.
