Purpose
To clarify 1) the force sharing between two portions of BTB graft in anatomic rectangular tunnel (ART) reconstruction and 2) the knee stability in ART technique under anterior tibial load.Methods
Eleven fresh cadaveric knees were used. First, anterior-posterior (A-P) laxity was measured with Knee Laxity Tester® in response to 134 N of A-P tibial load at 20° on the normal knees. Then ART ACL reconstruction was performed with a BTB graft. For graft, the patellar bone plug and tendon portion was longitudinally cut into half as AM and PL portions. After the tibial bone plug was fixed at femoral aperture, AM/PL portions were connected to the tension-adjustable force gauges at tibial tubercle, and were fixed with 10 N to each portion at 20°. Then the tension was measured 1) under anterior tibial load of 134 N at 0, 30, 60, and 90°, and 2) during passive knee extension from 120 to 0°. Next the graft tension was set at 0, 10, 20, 30, or 40 N at 20°, and the A-P laxity was measured by applying A-P load of 134 N. By comparing the laxity for the normal knee, the tension to restore the normal A-P laxity (LMP) was estimated.Results
The AM force was significantly smaller at 0° and larger at 90° than the PL force under anterior load, while the force sharing showed a reciprocal pattern. During knee extension motion, the tension of both portions gradually increased from around 5 N to 20–30 N with knee extended. And the LMP was 1.6 ± 1.0 N with a range from 0.3 to 3.5 N.Conclusion
The pattern of force sharing was similar to that in the normal ACL in response to anterior tibial load and during passive knee extension motion. LMP in this procedure was close to the tension in the normal ACL.Level of evidence

Purpose
To comparatively analyze the geometry of the posterolateral femoral (PL) tunnel in double-bundle ACL reconstruction between far anteromedial transportal (TP) and outside-in (OI) drilling techniques based on three-dimensional computed tomography (3DCT) image analysis.Methods
Forty patients who underwent anatomic double-bundle hamstring ACL reconstruction using the TP (n: 20) or OI (n: 20) method with postoperative CT data available were included in the study. The analyzed parameters were as follows: location of the intraarticular tunnel aperture, tunnel length, bending angle (angulation of the graft at the intraarticular tunnel aperture), and long axis of the tunnel aperture/drill diameter ratio as a parameter of ellipsoidal geometry.Results
Anatomical tunnel placement was achieved in both groups. Coalition of the AM and PL tunnel apertures was found in 3 knees in the TP group and 1 knee in the OI group, though no significant difference in the rate of this problem was demonstrated between the groups (P: 0.30). The tunnel length was not significantly different between the groups, while the graft bending angle at the tunnel aperture was significantly larger in the OI group than the TP group (99.4° vs. 63.6°). The long axis/drill diameter ratio averaged 1.23 in the TP group and 1.13 in the OI group with significant intergroup difference.Conclusion
When drilling the PL femoral tunnel in double-bundle ACL reconstruction, anatomic placement of the intraarticular tunnel aperture was feasible in both the TP and OI techniques. The tunnel aperture was rounder and the graft bending angle in knee extended position at the intraarticular aperture was more acute in the OI technique than the TP technique.Level of evidence

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to compare the morphological and clinical outcomes between anatomic rectangular tunnel (ART) ACL reconstruction with a BTB graft and anatomic triple-bundle (ATB) ACL reconstruction with hamstring tendon (HST) grafts.MethodsThe anatomic ACL reconstructions were performed on 467 patients; 233 patients with ART technique and 234 with ATB procedure. ART procedure was predominantly indicated for athletes with higher motivation to return to sports and aggressiveness for muscle training. A total of 113 patients, with a mean age of 20.7 years, had consented to undergo second-look arthroscopy. The average time from ACL reconstruction to the second-look was 10.0 months. This study included 56 ART techniques and 57 ATB procedures. The grafts underwent meticulous probing, and were evaluated based on tension, graft damage, and synovial coverage. Moreover, the femoral tunnel aperture was also observed in detail to assess the space between the femoral tunnel and the graft. As clinical evaluation, knee effusion, range of motion, Lachman test, pivot shift test, KT side-to-side difference, and Lysholm score were assessed.ResultsThere was no significant difference in graft tension between two procedures, while HST graft in ATB procedure had more cases with graft damage (p = 0.05). Good synovial coverage was found in 98% in ART procedure and 70% in ATB procedure, showing a significant difference (P < 0.001). At femoral tunnel aperture, there were no cases with the space around BTB graft, while 33% showed the space around HST graft, again showing a significant difference (P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in clinical outcomes.ConclusionBTB graft with the ART procedure was superior to HST graft with the ATB procedure in morphology at second-look arthroscopy, while there was no significant difference in clinical outcomes between two procedures. 相似文献

BackgroundThree-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) is reliable and accurate imaging modality for evaluating tunnel enlargement after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tibial tunnel enlargement including the morphological change after anatomic ACL reconstruction with a bone–patellar tendon–bone (BTB) graft using 3D CT models.MethodsEighteen patients with unilateral ACL rupture were included. The anatomic rectangular-tunnel (ART) ACL reconstruction with a BTB autograft was performed. 3D CT models of the tibia, the tibial tunnel, and the bone plug at 3 weeks and 1 year after surgery were reconstructed and superimposed using a surface registration technique. The cross-sectional area (CSA) of the tibial tunnel perpendicular to the tunnel axis was evaluated at the aperture and 5, 10, and 15-mm distal from the aperture. The CSA was measured at 3 weeks and 1 year after surgery and compared between the two time points. The locations of the center and the anterior, posterior, medial, and lateral edges of the tunnel footprint were also evaluated based on the coordinate system for the tibial plateau and compared between the two time points.ResultsAt the aperture, the CSA of the tibial tunnel at 1 year after surgery was significantly larger by 21.9% than that at 3 weeks (P < 0.001). In contrast, the CSA at 1 year was significantly smaller than that at 3 weeks at 10 and 15-mm distal from the aperture (P = 0.041 and < 0.001, respectively). The center of the tunnel footprint significantly shifted postero-laterally with significant posterior shift of the anterior/posterior edges and lateral shift of the lateral edge (P < 0.001).ConclusionThe tibial tunnel enlarged at the aperture by 22% 1-year after anatomic ACL reconstruction with a BTB graft, and the tunnel morphology changed in a postero-lateral direction at the aperture and into conical shape inside the tunnel. 相似文献

BackgroundFactors related to tunnel enlargement after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction should be evaluated by multivariate analysis, because the phenomenon has multifactorial characteristics. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the factors related to the tibial tunnel enlargement rate after anatomic ACL reconstruction with a bone–patellar tendon–bone (BTB) graft using multivariate analysis.MethodsEighteen patients with unilateral ACL rupture were included. The anatomic rectangular-tunnel (ART) ACL reconstruction with a BTB autograft was performed. 3D CT models of the tibia, the tibial tunnel, and the bone plug at 3 weeks and 1 year after surgery were reconstructed and superimposed using a surface registration technique. The cross-sectional area (CSA) of the tibial tunnel perpendicular to the tunnel axis was evaluated at the aperture. The CSA was measured at 3 weeks and 1 year after surgery, and the tunnel enlargement rate at the aperture was calculated. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to detect the significantly related factors to the tibial tunnel enlargement rate at the aperture among potential factors consisting of preoperative demographic factors and predisposing factors with the tibial tunnel.ResultsThe tibial tunnel enlargement rate at the aperture was 21.9 ± 14.1% (mean ± standard deviation). Multiple linear regression analysis detected the tendon length inside the tunnel as a significantly independent factor related to the tibial tunnel enlargement rate at the aperture (standardized β = 0.726, P = 0.008). There was no significant relationship between the tibial tunnel enlargement rate at the aperture and postoperative side-to-side difference (SSD) of the anterior knee laxity or Tegner activity level scale under single linear regression analysis.ConclusionThe greater tendon length inside the tunnel was independently related to the higher tibial tunnel enlargement rate at the aperture 1-year after anatomic ACL reconstruction with a BTB graft under multiple linear regression analysis. 相似文献

Objective
The study objective was to assess the effect of preoperative thoracic false lumen branches on thoracic aortic enlargement along the stent graft after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for DeBakey IIIb aortic dissection.Methods
From January 2011 to December 2013, 67 patients who underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair for DeBakey IIIb aortic dissection were retrospectively investigated. We assessed preoperative thoracic false lumen branches and diameter measurements at the level of the tracheal carina. Patients with a median follow-up of 12.2 months (interquartile range, 4.3-26.6 months) were categorized into 2 groups based on a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis: group A (preoperative thoracic false lumen branches ≥8, n = 28) and group B (preoperative thoracic false lumen branches <8, n = 39). Diameter changes over time were evaluated using a mixed model approach. A multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to study the influence of the preoperative thoracic false lumen branches on thoracic aortic enlargement along the stent graft.Results
Six patients experienced thoracic aortic enlargement along the stent graft during follow-up (6 in group A, 0 in group B). The cumulative thoracic aortic enlargement along the stent-graft rate was higher in group A than in group B (log-rank P < .01). Diameter data showed significantly more reduction of the thoracic false lumen from preprocedure to 12 months in group B than in group A (change difference, 2.51; standard error, 0.99; P = .01). Complete false lumen thrombosis was more prominent in group B than in group A at each follow-up time point. After multivariate adjustment, preoperative thoracic false lumen branches were associated with thoracic aortic enlargement along the stent graft (hazard ratio, 2.92; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-8.01).Conclusions
Preoperative thoracic false lumen branches are a morphologic predictor of thoracic aortic enlargement along the stent graft in DeBakey IIIb aortic dissection after thoracic endovascular aortic repair. 相似文献7.

Objectives
There are not many chances to arthroscopically reassess how graft tunnel malpositions in primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) associate with intra-articular degeneration in revision ACLR. This study was aimed to evaluate whether radiographic tunnel position in primary ACLR affect cartilaginous changes and bucket-handle meniscus tears in revision ACLR.Methods
Thirty-five patients who underwent revision ACLR were recruited; their primary surgeries were single-bundle reconstructions. Tunnel positions were evaluated using the plain radiographs after primary surgery. The sagittal tunnel positions of the femur (FP) and tibia (TP) were determined on the lateral view. The articular cartilage was evaluated arthroscopically at primary and revision surgery using the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) score. A progression of two grades was considered as cartilaginous changes. Meniscal tears were evaluated with an arthroscopic probe. Logistic regression analysis was conducted using the prevalence of cartilaginous changes or bucket-handle meniscus tears as the dependent variable; tunnel parameters were used as the independent variables.Results
Seven patients (20.0%) had cartilaginous changes and nine patients (25.7%) had bucket-handle tears in the medial meniscus. In logistic regression analysis, %FP [odds ratio (OR): 1.212; P = 0.007] and the cut-off of 60% in the FP (OR: 22.000; P = 0.008) were correlated with cartilaginous changes. %TP (OR: 1.126; P = 0.036) was correlated with the prevalence of bucket-handle meniscus tears.Conclusions
Anterior femoral tunnel malposition in the femur was associated with the cartilaginous changes, and posterior tibial tunnel malposition with the development of bucket-handle meniscus tears. 相似文献8.

Purpose
Needle electromyography provides essential information about the functional aspects of the muscle. But little attention has been given in the literature to needle electromyography examinations in carpal tunnel syndrome. We examined the relationship between preoperative needle electromyography findings and functional recovery of the abductor pollicis brevis (APB) muscle in severe carpal tunnel syndrome patients.Methods
The subjects of this study were 49 patients, 58 hands, who fit the following 5 criteria: (1) idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome; (2) pre-op MMT grade of the APB muscle was M0 or M1; (3) APB-CMAP (compound muscle action potential) was not evoked in a median nerve conduction study; (4) needle electromyography of the APB muscle had been done; (5) underwent carpal tunnel release only. The patients were divided into two groups according to the results of pre-op needle electromyography: voluntary motor unit potential of the APB muscle was evoked [MUP(+) group]or not [MUP(?) group]. We evaluated APB muscle strength at one year after surgery, and patient satisfaction and functional evaluations (CTSI-FS) at more than one year after.Results
The APB muscle recovery rate to M3 or higher was 100% in the MUP(+) group, and 57% in the MUP(?) group. Patient satisfaction was also high and functional recovery was sufficient in the MUP(+) group. No patients requested a second opponensplasty.Conclusion
Our findings suggest that post-op restoration of thumb function relates to whether or not the MUP ofthe APB muscle is evoked. Single-stage opponensplasty may be unnecessary if the MUP of the APB muscle is; evoked. Needle electromyography is therefore useful in consideration for opponensplasty.Level of Evidence

Background
It is still controversial whether which femoral tunnel creation technique is best during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). We aimed to clarify the features of three different techniques based on the femoral tunnel position created with the same tunnel-creating concept and the measurement data.Methods
The femoral tunnel of double-bundle (DB) ACLR was created using the behind-remnant approach in a remnant preserved manner following the policy of our institute. The trans-tibial approach (TT) was applied for all primary ACL injured cases until December 2012. The trans-portal approach (TP) was applied from January to September 2013, and the outside-in approach (OI) was indicated from October 2013 to March 2014. We compared the femoral tunnel aperture positions with the postoperative three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT). Additionally, the femoral tunnel length and the septum distance of each anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral (PL) tunnel were analyzed.Results
The AM tunnel aperture position of TT was significantly higher and shallower than that of TP in knee flexion position. The femoral tunnel length of TP was significantly shorter than that of TT and OI. The septum between each tunnel of OI trended wider than that of TT and TP.Conclusions
The AM tunnel aperture position of TT runs the risk of a high and shallow position. TP runs the risk of insufficiently short tunnel length. It is important to apply each method flexibly to each case because no single best approach was found. 相似文献10.

Objective
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of the patellar tendon wavy (PTW) sign for an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear on MRI.Methods
One hundred MRI scans were prospectively analyzed, with 50 patients with an ACL tear underwent an ACL reconstruction (group 1) and 50 patients with knee complaints other than ACL tear (group 2). The PTW sign was confirmed on the sagittal MRI. In addition, the patellar tendon length, tibial-femoral angle and tibial anterior translation (TAT) were compared between the groups.Results
The PTW sign was present in 41/50 (82%) MRI scans in group 1 and 10/50 (20%) in group 2, with significant difference between two groups (p = 0.000). Significant differences were also found, in medial TAT (6.29 ± 3.25 mm versus 3.12 ± 2.85 mm) and in lateral TAT (7.62 ± 3.85 mm versus 1.58 ± 3.93 mm) between two groups (both p = 0.000). Comparison of MRI with and without PTW sign, ACL injury was found to be of significant difference with 41/51 (80.4%) versus 9/49 (18.4%) (p = 0.000), and both medial and lateral TAT were with significant differences, 5.39 ± 3.90 mm versus 3.99 ± 2.71 mm (p = 0.039) and 7.67 ± 3.77 mm versus 1.40 ± 3.81 mm (p = 0.000), respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of PTW sign were 82% and 80%. The positive and negative predictive value were 80.4% and 81.6%. The diagnosis accuracy was 81%.Conclusion
The PTW sign is a useful secondary MRI sign to establish the diagnosis of an ACL tear. It may be associated with the TAT secondary to an ACL tear.Level of evidence

Background
The Lachman test is clinically considered to be a reliable physical examination for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency. However, the test involves subjective judgement of differences in tibial translation and endpoint quality. An auscultation system has been developed to allow assessment of the Lachman test. The knee joint sound during the Lachman test was analyzed using fast Fourier transformation. The purpose of the present study was to quantitatively evaluate knee joint sounds in healthy and ACL-deficient human knees.Methods
Sixty healthy volunteers and 24 patients with ACL injury were examined. The Lachman test with joint auscultation was evaluated using a microphone. Knee joint sound during the Lachman test (Lachman sound) was analyzed by fast Fourier transformation. As quantitative indices of the Lachman sound, the peak sound (Lachman peak sound) as the maximum relative amplitude (acoustic pressure) and its frequency were used.Results
In healthy volunteers, the mean Lachman peak sound of intact knees was 100.6 Hz in frequency and ?45 dB in acoustic pressure. Moreover, a sex difference was found in the frequency of the Lachman peak sound. In patients with ACL injury, the frequency of the Lachman peak sound of the ACL-deficient knees was widely dispersed. In the ACL-deficient knees, the mean Lachman peak sound was 306.8 Hz in frequency and ?63.1 dB in acoustic pressure. If the reference range was set at the frequency of the healthy volunteer Lachman peak sound, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 83.3%, 95.6%, 95.2%, and 85.2%, respectively.Conclusion
Knee joint auscultation during the Lachman test was capable of judging ACL deficiency on the basis of objective data. In particular, the frequency of the Lachman peak sound was able to assess ACL condition. 相似文献12.

Study Design
Randomized controlled trial.Introduction
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity. To date, no previous study has evaluated the efficacy of topical Lavendula stoechas (Lavender) oil in CTS patients.Purpose of the Study
To investigate the effectiveness of topical Lavender essential oil in pain intensity, isometric pinch strength, electrophysiological features, and functional status of patients with mild to moderate CTS.Methods
Forty eight patients with mild to moderate CTS were enrolled in this randomized placebo-controlled trial. Group A was treated with night wrist orthotic and topical lavender oil ointment. Group B was treated with night wrist orthotic and a placebo ointment. Patients were evaluated at baseline, and after 40 days of intervention with Boston CTS questionnaire (BCTQ), visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, pinch grip strength, power grip, median compound motor action potential latency, and median sensory nerve action potential latency.Results
At the end of the study period, both groups improved significantly in terms of BCTQ, VAS, isometric pinch powers, and electrodiagnosis study parameters. However, group A showed significantly greater improvements in BCTQ (mean difference, 0.39 ± 0.31 vs 0.6 ± 0.35; P = .03), VAS (3.37 ± 1.86 vs 1.33 ± 2.07; P = .001), and pinch grip strength (0.73 ± 0.63 vs 0.27 ± 0.54; P = .01) than group B. No significant differences in power grip, median compound motor action potential latency, and median sensory nerve action potential latency were seen between the 2 groups.Conclusion
This study was the first trial of topical lavender oil used in patients with CTS. Wrist orthotic combined with topical lavender oil was more effective than orthotic and placebo in treatment of mild to moderate CTS.Level of Evidence

Purpose
We conducted this study to correlate the short term clinical outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with patients' age, time since injury and associated meniscal injury.Methods
A total of 43 patients who underwent ACL reconstruction between October 2013 and February 2015 were taken for the study. Preoperative demographic data, clinical scores (Lysholm, IKDC) were recorded for each patient. Time since injury and associated meniscal injuries were recorded. Then a standardized surgical technique was used for each graft type. They were followed up for 6 months and the Lysholm and IKDC scores were evaluated.Results
Only 33 patients completed 6 months follow-up at the end of this study. Twenty-four patients (72.7%) were in the age group of 18–30 years. Nine patients belonged to age group 30–50 years (27.3%). The p value for differences in Lysholm scores between the two age groups was not significant (0.339). The p value for differences in IKDC scores between the two age groups was not significant either (0.138). The mean Lysholm scores were 93.86 ± 3.024 for the group who presented <6 months post-injury, 92 ± 5.494 for the group who presented between 6 months and 1 year and 94.64 ± 3.104 for the group who presented after 1 year; whereas the mean IKDC scores were 92.43 ± 0.793, 90.64 ± 6.598 and 90.89 ± 2.113 respectively. The correlation of outcomes with meniscal injury had no statistical significance.Conclusion
Based on our study, we conclude that age, time since injury and associated meniscal injury does not affect short term functional outcome in ACL reconstruction. 相似文献14.

Purpose
To study the outcome of ACL reconstruction by retrograde outside-in (OI) creation of femoral tunnel.Methods
ACL reconstruction was done in 41 cases by OI technique. The tip of 115° femoral guide was placed at posterior aspect of femoral foot print of ACL. Reaming was done from outside-in over guide pin. The length of femoral tunnel was obtained by measuring guide pin. The location of intra-articular femoral tunnel aperture and graft was recorded. Tibial tunnel was created with 50° guide placed at tibial foot print of ACL. Post-operative digital radiograph was taken. Antero-posterior view was used to calculate coronal inclination of femoral tunnel. On lateral view femoral tunnel location was marked in relation to the intersection of Blumensaat line and posterior femoral cortical line. Lysholm scoring and pivot shift test were performed at follow-up. Objective measurement of anterior tibial translation was done by rolimeter (aircast) at 1 year.Results
The mean femoral tunnel length recorded was 39.5 mm (±3.4). There was no incidence of femoral tunnel blow out or graft impingement. All cases had femoral tunnel aperture location posterior to posterior femoral cortical line and inferior to Blumensaat line. The mean coronal angle of femoral tunnel was 30.39° (±4.6). The mean preoperative Lysholm score of 53.5 (±13) increased to 95.2 (±3.5) 1 year after surgery. All the patients had full range of motion. The pivot shift test was negative and instrumented measurement of anterior translation of tibia was near normal in all cases.Conclusion
OI technique of ACL reconstruction is a simple reproducible technique. The unconstrained placement and angling of femoral guide result in a femoral tunnel which is through footprint of ACL. The graft is placed very low, oblique and as posterior as possible on femoral side mimicking the native ACL.Level of evidence

Background
Although the clinical outcomes of pediatric renal transplantation (RT) in developed countries have improved significantly, the data on clinical outcomes in developing countries are wildly different.Methods
Children and adolescents who had undergone RT at Ramathibodi Hospital between March 2001 and August 2014 were included.Results
Patients were divided into 2 groups: living related donor (LRD) group (n = 13) and deceased donor (DD) group (n = 30). Prolonged cold ischemic time over 13 hours was significantly associated with delayed graft function (P = .029). The prevalence of infection was 90.7%, in which urinary tract infection (UTI) was the most common infection. Although almost none of the patients in the LRD group received induction therapy, the prevalence of rejection was not significantly different between the 2 groups (P = .817). The comparison of graft survivals between LRD and DD groups were 100% vs 100%, 92.3% vs 100%, and 85.7% vs 81.8% at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively (P = .938). Recurrent UTI and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection had a negative effect on graft function at 1-year follow-up (P < .05). Rejections, bladder dysfunction, and donors aged ≥50 years were associated with graft deterioration at 3 years after RT (P < .01). None of these patients died with functioning graft.Conclusion
This study demonstrated good graft and patient survival in Thai pediatric RT recipients. Although recurrent UTI and CMV infection were related to graft dysfunction at 1-year follow-up, infections had no effect on graft and patient survival in long-term follow-up. 相似文献16.

Introduction
Post-transplant hypertension is extremely frequent, occurring in 60% to 90% of cases. It is involved in the pathogenesis of chronic graft dysfunction and patient survival.Objectives
We sought to describe changes in antihypertensive therapy after renal transplantation (RT) depending on the type of pretransplant renal replacement therapy (RRT), hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD).Methods
We performed a retrospective cohort study of RT patients who were divided into 2 groups according to the type of pretransplant RRT (HD group: 69 patients; PD group: 38 patients). Patients with a diagnosis of nonessential hypertension etiology, diagnosis of renal artery stenosis of the graft, active urologic complications, and history of acute graft rejection were excluded. Variables related to chronic kidney disease and RT as well as antihypertensive therapy were studied.Results
PD patients had reduced number of antihypertensive drugs at 1 month after RT (1.39 ± 1.03) compared with pre-RT (2.16 ± 1.30; P = .001), a trend that was maintained at 6 months (1.70 ± 1.18; P = .06). In HD group, the number of antihypertensive drugs increased at 6 months after RT (1.59 ± 1.17) compared with pretransplant (1.15 ± 1.13; P = .027). The use of calcium channel blockers increased by 10.2% by 1 month (P = .071) and 9.2% (P = .036) by 6 months after RT.Conclusion
By 1 month after RT, antihypertensive therapy was reduced. Calcium channel blockers were the most common drug group, although it is usually necessary to use more than 1 drug. 相似文献17.

Background
The purpose of this study was to analyze the association between the prevalence of meniscal and chondral lesions and the timing of surgery in patients undergoing primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction to determine a safe time for surgery.Methods
This retrospective study involved 226 patients (91 females and 135 males; median age, 29 years) undergoing primary ACL reconstruction. Time interval from ACL injury to surgery (median, 4 months; range, 1–420 months) and concomitant meniscal and cartilage lesions in ACL reconstruction were reviewed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the precise threshold interval to surgery to prevent meniscal or cartilage lesions. The risk of lesion occurrence after each cutoff period was determined using odds ratio (OR).Results
The incidences of medial meniscus (MM), lateral meniscus (LM), and cartilage lesions were 43.8%, 32.7%, and 27.4%, respectively. ROC analysis revealed that patients who waited for more than 6, 4, and 5 months for ACL reconstruction had a significantly greater risk of associated MM, LM, and chondral lesions, respectively. Patients who underwent ACL reconstruction ≥7 months after injury had OR of 4.1 (p < 0.001) for the presence of MM lesion as compared with those who underwent reconstruction within 6 months. Similarly, patients who underwent ACL reconstruction ≥5 months after injury had OR of 1.9 (p = 0.023) for the presence of LM lesion as compared with those who underwent reconstruction within 4 months, and patients who underwent ACL reconstruction ≥6 months after injury had OR of 2.9 (p < 0.001) for chondral lesion as compared with those who underwent reconstruction within 6 months.Conclusion
ACL reconstruction should be performed within approximately 6 months after the injury to prevent associated meniscal or chondral lesions. 相似文献18.

Background
Hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT) is reported in 4%-15% of orthotopic liver transplants. Risk factors include technical error in the anastomosis, vascular anatomic variation, and high microvascular resistance. The aim of this study was to verify the incidence of HAT, early or late, and possible risk factors.Methods
This was a retrospective study from January 2007 to December 2012 at the State University of Campinas. Variables analyzed were age, sex, cold and warm ischemia times, underlying disease, presence of hepatocellular carcinoma, Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score, arterial anatomic variation in the graft, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, rejection, biliary complications, retransplantation rate, and survival.Results
The incidence of HAT was 21/263, or 7.9%. Pure average MELD score was 22 ± 7.4. There was vascular anatomic variation in the graft in 14.2% of cases, in the majority (66.6%) a right hepatic artery from the superior mesenteric artery, and 4.76% of patients had CMV infection and acute cellular rejection (1 case each). There were biliary complications in 38% of patients, 13.3% of cases in patients with early HAT, and 100% of patients with late HAT (P = .002). Body mass index in late HAT was higher (P = .01).Conclusions
Late HAT was related to a significant increase in biliary complications (stenosis), and the survival rate was similar at 5 years. 相似文献19.

Background
The significance of proinflammatory M1 (classically activated) and profibrotic M2 (alternatively activated) macrophages in antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) after kidney transplantation has not been investigated.Methods
Fifty-five biopsy-confirmed ABMR samples were stained with MRP 8/14 (a marker of M1 macrophages) and CD163 (a marker of M2 macrophages), and positive cells were counted in glomeruli and the tubulointerstitium, respectively. Patients were classified into M1 and M2 polarization groups according to the glomerular and tubulointerstitial M1:M2 ratio, and the results were compared with Banff scores, serum creatinine level, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and graft survival.Results
The glomerular M2 polarization group showed significantly higher chronic glomerulopathy scores, serum creatinine levels, and lower eGFR at the time of biopsy (P = .019 and P = .015, respectively) and 3-month postbiopsy (P = .016 and P = .032, respectively) than the M1 polarization group. The tubulointerstitial M2 polarization group had significantly lower glomerulitis, arteritis, peritubular capillaritis, and glomerulitis + peritubular capillaritis scores than the M1 polarization group, but there was no significant difference in renal function. Long-term graft survival was not associated with macrophage polarization.Conclusion
Glomerular M2 polarization in ABMR biopsy samples is associated with chronic glomerular injury and poorer graft function, but without graft survival. 相似文献20.
