Objective:To observe the effect of wrist and ankle acupuncture combined with celecoxib on the clinical efficacy and pain mediators after lumbar spine surgery. Methods : Sixty patients with postoperative pain in lumbar spine were divided into the control group and the observation group by using random number table method,with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with celecoxib,and the observation group was treated with wrist and ankle acupuncture on the basis of the treatment of the control group. Visual analogue scale(VAS) scores,pain mediators [serum prostaglandin E2(PGE2),substance P(SP),β-endorphin(β-EP) ],Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)scores,complications,and patient satisfaction before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:The VAS score of the two groups decreased with the passage of time,and the VAS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group on day 1,2,3and 7 after surgery(P<0.05). The level of PGE2 、SP in the two groups was firstly increased and then decreased with the passage of time(P<0.05),but the serum level of PGE2、SP in the observation group was lower than that in the control group on day 1,2,3 and 7 after surgery(P<0.05). The β-EP level of two groups firstly decreased and then increased as time went by(P<0.05),and the β-EP level of the observation group was higher than that of the control group on day 1,2,3 and 7 after surgery(P<0.05). JOA scores were improved in both groups,but the JOA score of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group on day 7 after surgery(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the observation group and the control group(P>0.05). The satisfaction with postoperative pain management plan of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Wrist and ankle acupuncture combined with celecoxib can significantly reduce postoperative pain,reduce the expression of related pain mediators,and improve spinal function.
Objective To explore efficacy of minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion with Wiltse approach(MIS-TLIF) in the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis(LS). Methods 98 patients with LS in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, 49 cases in each group. The control group received posterior median approach interbody fusion(TLIF) treatment, and the observation group received Wiltse approach MIS-TLIF treatment. The surgical effect, perioperative indicators, Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) score before and after surgery, improvement of lumbar function, visual analogue scale(VAS) score, serum adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH)and cortisol(Cor) levels before and after surgery were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference in the surgical effect between the two groups(P> 0.05). The intraoperative blood loss in the observation group was less than that in the control group, the hospitalization time was shorter than that in the control group, and the operation time was longer than that in the control group(P <0.05). 3 monthes after surgery, the ODI score, intervertebral disc height,spondylolisthesis degree, and spondylolisthesis angle of the two groups were improved compared with those before surgery(P <0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups. The VAS scores of the two groups were lower than those before surgery, and those in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05). The serum ACTH and Cor levels of the two groups were higher than those before surgery, but those in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P <0.05). Conclusion TLIF and Wiltse approach MIS-TLIF have similar effect in the treatment of LS, which can effectively improve lumbar spine function, but the latter has more advantages in optimizing perioperative indicators and pain degree, and causes less trauma.

Objective to investigate the clinical efficacy of decompression and pedicle screw fixation through posterior approach for complete thoracic spine fracture dislocation.Methods The clinical data of six patients with complete thoracic spine fracture and dislocation treated from September 2002 to June 2016 were analyzed retrospectively by case series study.There were five males and one female,aged 21-67 years old (mean,47.2 years).The injury segments were T3~4 dislocation in one case,T5~6 dislocation in two cases,T6 ~7 dislocation in two cases and T8 ~9 dislocation in one case.There was one case of ASIA grade E and five cases of Grade A,and all of six cases were associated with multiple rib fractures and hemopneumothorax.The companied status was one case of sternal fracture,one case of atlantoaxial complex fractures and three cases of pulmonary contusion.The posterior median incision decompression and pedicle screw system fixation were performed,and the intervertebral bone grafting was conducted after restoration.The surgery time,bleeding volume during surgery,fracture restoration,bone grafting fusion,failure of internal fixation and other complications were recorded.The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) classification were used to assess the pain and neurological function improvement between the preoperative visit and final follow-up visit.Results The surgery time was 150-240 minutes (mean,205 minutes).The bleeding volume during the surgery was 700-2 100 ml (mean,1167 ml).One case was died of pulmonary infection at one week after surgery,the others were followed up for 3-14 months (mean,7.4 months).After operation,five patients were satisfied with the reduction,and the lateral displacement was partially restored in one cases.Five cases of intervertebral bone grafting all had bone fusion.There was no fixation failure.The VAS was (7.4 ± 0.6) points before surgery,(4.5 ± 1.6) points at one week after surgery and (1.8 ± 0.3) points at final visit of follow-up,which had significant difference from the preoperative status (P < 0.05).One case of ASIA grade E had no postoperative aggravation and four cases of grade A had no improvement.Conclusion Posterior decompression and pedicle screw fixation system is optimal choice of treatment for complete thoracic fractures and dislocations for it can attain reduction of fracture and dislocation as well as bone fusion,provide stability for spine and relieve pain.
The aims of the present study were to examine the expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 and microRNA (miR)-185 in the bone tissue, blood and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with spinal cord injuries and to evaluate the regulation of spinal cord injuries by miR-185. A total of 44 patients with spinal cord injuries induced by thoracolumbar spine compression fractures, who were hospitalized at Luoyang Orthopedic-Traumatological Hospital between June 2012 and February 2015 were enrolled in the present study. Among the patients enrolled, 18 underwent surgery between 1 and 7 days following fracture, and 26 patients underwent surgery between 8 and 14 days following fracture. Bone tissue, peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid were subsequently harvested from patients for analysis. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to determine the expression of miR-185 and TGF-β1 mRNA. Western blotting was performed to evaluate TGF-β1 protein expression in bone tissue and ELISA was employed to quantify TGF-β1 protein expression in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid. TGF-β1 mRNA and protein levels in bone tissue, blood and cerebrospinal fluid from patients who underwent surgery 8-14 days post-fracture were significantly higher than those who underwent surgery 1-7 days post-fracture (P<0.05). By contrast, miR-185 levels were significantly lower in bone tissue, blood and cerebrospinal fluid from patients who underwent surgery 8-14 days post-fracture compared with those who underwent surgery 1-7 days post-fracture (P<0.05). The results of the present study desmonstrate that the upregulation of TGF-β1 in the bone tissue, blood and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with spinal cord injuries induced by thoracolumbar spine compression fractures is correlated with the downregulation of miR-185. Furthermore, miR-185 may target TGF-β1, affecting its transcription and translation, indicating that it serves an important role in spinal cord injuries induced by thoracolumbar spine compression fractures.
目的:探讨应用纳米羟基磷灰石/聚酰胺66人工骨块行颈椎后路双开门椎管扩大成形术的临床疗效和安全性。方法:2011年1月至2013年12月收治颈部疾病患者32例。男23例,女9例;年龄32~78岁,中位数56岁;脊髓型颈椎病11例,发育性颈椎管狭窄症7例,颈椎后纵韧带钙化症14例;病程5~15个月,中位数10个月。均采用颈椎后路双开门椎管扩大成形术治疗,以纳米羟基磷灰石/聚酰胺66人工骨块作为间隔物。采用日本骨科学会(Japanese orthopaedic association,JOA)制定的脊髓型颈椎病评分标准(17分法)评定脊髓功能;进行颈椎 X 线、CT、MRI 检查,观察颈椎曲度和活动度、植骨块位置和愈合情况,测定椎管矢状径;观察记录治疗及随访期间的并发症发生情况。结果:所有患者均行 C3~ C6后路双开门椎管扩大成形术,手术时间(1.6±0.3)h,术中出血量(188±50)mL。所有患者均获12个月以上随访,切口均甲级愈合,未出现过敏或毒性反应,均未出现脊髓损伤加重表现。术后所有患者的症状均明显缓解,3例患者出现单侧或双上肢烧灼样疼痛,治疗1~3个月后消失;术前、术后1周、术后3个月、术后12个月的 JOA 评分分别为(6.56±2.52)分、(10.82±1.47)分、(11.94±1.63)分、(12.35±1.96)分。影像学检查显示术后颈椎椎管容积明显增加、颈脊髓漂移满意、脊髓压迹消失;术前最狭窄部椎管矢状径(8.86±3.69)mm,出院时增加至(14.27±2.54)mm;植骨块位置维持良好,所有植骨块均与棘突融合;未发生再关门、颈椎后凸畸形及颈椎节段性不稳等并发症。结论:应用纳米羟基磷灰石/聚酰胺66人工骨块行颈椎后路双开门椎管扩大成形术,可有效扩大并维持颈椎管容积,促进脊髓功能恢复,且植骨愈合良好,并发症少,值得临床推广应用。
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of anterior distraction and leverage reduction for lower cervical spine fracture and dislocation combined with locked facet.Methods Sixtyone patients with lower cervical spine fracture and dislocation combined with locked facet presenting to hospital between January 2009 and July 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 48 males and 13 females,aged 18-81 years (mean,48.6 years).Responsible injured segments were C3/4 in eight patients,C4/5 in 15,C5/6 in 23,C6/7 in 11 and C7/T1 in four.A total of 18 patients had unilateral locking of facets and 43 patients bilateral locking of facets.American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) impairment score was grade A in nine patients,grade B in 13,grade C in 17,grade D in 16 and grade E in six.Under general anesthesia,the patients were performed decompression,reduction and fixation through cervical anterior approach.Postoperative intervertebral height,vertebral horizontal displacement and cervical kyphosis angle and reduction condition were evaluated.Interbody fusion was evaluated using the Bridwell criterion,neurological function using the ASIA score,and spinal cord function using the Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score.Results Complete reduction was achieved in all patients.Fifty-six patients received 3-36 month follow-up (mean,18 months).A second surgery was required for the postoperative recurrent dislocation in one patient and postoperative delayed union was seen in two patients.No patients had perioperative complications such as incision infection,nerve damage and esophageal injury.All incisions were stage I/first category healed.Cervical physiological curvature and intervertebral height were well maintained.Intervertebral height improved from preoperative 39%-86% [(67.6 ± 14.1)%] to postoperative 89%-109% [(101.2 ± 15.1)%],horizontal displacement of vertebrae improved from preoperative 5.36-11.74 mm [(8.12 ± 1.89) mm] to postoperative 0-2.56 mm [(1.29 ± 0.29) mm],and Cobb angle improved from preoperative-3°-26° [(14.3 ±6.2)°] to postoperative-13°-7°[(-3.6 ± 0.7) °] (all P < 0.05).Nerve function was improved with no aggravation after operation.JOA score was 0 to 17 points [(13.9 ± 0.7) points] at follow-up versus 0-17 points [(7.3 ± 0.9) points] before operation (P < 0.01),and the improvement of spinal cord function was 68% after operation.Conclusion Anterior distraction and leverage reduction effectively improves spinal function,indicating an effective and save method in the treatment of cervical spine fracture dislocation combined with locked facet.
