Screw angulation affects bone-screw stresses and bone graft load sharing in anterior cervical corpectomy fusion with a rigid screw-plate construct: a finite element model study

Background contextAnterior corpectomy and reconstruction with bone graft and a rigid screw-plate construct is an established procedure for treatment of cervical neural compression. Despite its reliability in relieving symptoms, there is a high rate of construct failure, especially in multilevel cases.PurposeThere has been no study evaluating the biomechanical effects of screw angulation on construct stability; this study investigates the C4–C7 construct stability and load-sharing properties among varying screw angulations in a rigid plate-screw construct.Study designA finite element model of a two-level cervical corpectomy with static anterior cervical plate.MethodsA three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of an intact C3–T1 segment was developed and validated. From this intact model, a fusion model (two-level [C5, C6] anterior corpectomy) was developed and validated. After corpectomy, allograft interbody fusion with a rigid anterior screw-plate construct was created from C4 to C7. Five additional FE models were developed from the fusion model corresponding to five different combinations of screw angulations within the vertebral bodies (C4, C7): (0°, 0°), (5°, 5°), (10°, 10°), (15°, 15°), and (15°, 0°). The fifth fusion model was termed as a hybrid fusion model.ResultsThe stability of a two-level corpectomy reconstruction is not dependent on the position of the screws. Despite the locked screw-plate interface, some degree of load sharing is transmitted to the graft. The load seen by the graft and the shear stress at the bone-screw junction is dependent on the angle of the screws with respect to the end plate. Higher stresses are seen at more divergent angles, particularly at the lower level of the construct.ConclusionThis study suggests that screw divergence from the end plates not only increases load transmission to the graft but also predisposes the screws to higher shear forces after corpectomy reconstruction. In particular, the inferior screw demonstrated larger stress than the upper-level screws. In the proposed hybrid fusion model, lower stresses on the bone graft, end plates, and bone-screw interface were recorded, inferring lower construct failure (end-plate fractures and screw pullout) potential at the inferior construct end.

浅谈基层医院如何掌握胆囊息肉样病变手术指征

胆囊息肉病变(PLG)临床并不少见,手术是根治的主要方法,但并非所有胆囊息肉都需手术治疗。因其病变类型不同,大小不一,疾病转归亦不尽相同,因此其手术适应证各家医院掌握也不一致。我院自1996年1月至2006年6月共收治胆囊息肉病人128例,其中手术切除胆囊119例,具体分析如下。

Metabolism of antidepressants: urinary metabolites of trimipramine in the rat

1. Studies on the metabolism of the tricyclic antidepressant trimipramine (TMP) in the rat are described. 2. Twenty metabolites of TMP were isolated from rat urine after enzymatic hydrolysis and their structures were determined by a gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) method. 3. Twelve TMP metabolites were the result of alicyclic (C10 or C11) oxidation in addition to the other metabolic pathways.     

Actin-free Gc globulin: a rapidly assessed biomarker of organ dysfunction in acute liver failure and cirrhosis.

Reductions in serum levels of Gc globulin, a hepatically synthesized component of the extracellular actin scavenger system responsible for complexing circulating actin and attenuating intravascular microthrombus formation, are associated with poor outcome in acute liver failure. Clinically applicable assays of the important actin-free fraction (Af-Gc) have not been available until now. We measured actin-free Gc globulin levels with a novel, rapid assay in 61 cases of acute liver failure (ALF) and in 91 patients with cirrhosis (40 of whom were clinically unstable with extrahepatic organ dysfunction), and studied associations with liver dysfunction, extrahepatic organ dysfunction, indices of disseminated coagulation, and outcome. Reductions in Af-Gc levels mirrored hepatic dysfunction and organ dysfunction in both groups, and discriminated patients with poor prognosis from those with good prognosis in the ALF cohort. Levels were lowest in patients with ALF (10% of control values), but levels were also markedly reduced in both unstable (28%) and stable (44%) patients with cirrhosis. Associations with markers of disseminated intravascular coagulation were seen in both groups, most notably in the cirrhosis cohort, supporting a pathophysiological role for reduced Af-Gc in the evolution of organ dysfunction. In acetaminophen-induced ALF, Af-Gc identified patients with poor prognosis as well as did the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE II) score (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.7), and in cirrhosis, Af-Gc was an independent predictor of mortality by multifactorial analysis. In conclusion, the importance of Af-Gc reductions in the development of multiple organ dysfunction in ALF and cirrhosis is highlighted, probably resulting from reduced hepatic production and peripheral exhaustion of this arm of the extracellular actin scavenger system.
