Objective To investigate the research advance in repair of the peripheral nerve defect with an acellular nerve allograft. Methods The recent related literature was extensively and comprehensively reviewed. The methods and the effects of the allografts with acellular nerves were analyzed. Results The immunogenicity of the allograft was more significantly relieved by the chemical treatment than by the physicaltreatment. The effect of the chemical treatment on the axon regeneration was better than that of the physical treatment. Conclusion Because of the limitation of the host Schwann cell translation in the longsegment acellular nerve allografts, the effect of Schwann cells is not satisfactory and regeneration of the nerve is limited. So, the recellularized treatment with some related measures can enhance the host Schwann cell translation so that this problem can be solved.

This paper reviews the advance of pathophysiological characters, molecular genetic characters, clinical manifestation, clinical diagnosis and differential diagnosis, and treatment and prognosis of PPB.
Objective To systematically review the effectiveness of amiodarone in treating repurfusion arrhythmia (RA) after thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), so as to provide high quality evidence for formulating the rational thrombolytic therapy for AMI. Methods Randomized controlled trails (RCTs) on amiodarone in treating RA after thrombolytic therapy for AMI were electronically retrieved in PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2012), CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data from inception to January, 2013. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed quality. Then RevMan 5.1 software was used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 5 RCTs involving 440 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis suggested that, compared with the blank control, amiodarone reduced the incidence of RA after thrombolytic therapy in treating AMI (RR=0.60, 95%CI 0.48 to 0.74, Plt;0.000 01) and the incidence of ventricular fibrillation (RR=0.47, 95%CI 0.26 to 0.85, P=0.01). It neither affected the recanalization rate of occluded arteries after thrombolytic therapy (RR=1.00, 95%CI 0.88 to 1.15, P=0.94) nor decreased the mortality after surgery (RR=0.33, 95%CI 0.10 to 1.09, P=0.07). Conclusion Current evidence indicated that, amiodarone can decrease the incidence of RA. Unfortunately, the mortality rate can’t be reduced by amiodarone. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion
Objective To review current status of surgical treatment for angular kyphosis in spinal tuberculosis and provide reference for clinical treatment. Methods The literature on the surgical treatment for angular kyphosis of spinal tuberculosis in recent years was extensively reviewed and summarized from the aspects of surgical indications, surgical contraindications, surgical approach, selection of osteotomy, and perioperative management. Results Angular kyphosis of spine is a common complication in patients with spinal tuberculosis. If kyphosis progresses gradually, it is easy to cause neurological damage, deterioration, and delayed paralysis, which requires surgical intervention. At present, surgical approaches for angular kyphosis of the spine include anterior approach, posterior approach, and combined anterior and posterior approaches. Anterior approach can be performed for patients with severe spinal cord compression and small kyphotic Cobb angle. Posterior approach can be used for patients with large kyphotic Cobb angle but not serious neurological impairment. A combined anterior and posterior approaches is an option for spinal canal decompression and orthosis. Osteotomy for kyphotic deformity include Smith-Peterson osteotomy (SPO), pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO), vertebral column resection(VCR), vertebral column decancellation (VCD), posterior vertebral column resection (PVCR), deformed complex vertebral osteotomy (DCVO), and Y-shaped osteotomy. SPO and PSO are osteotomy methods with relatively low surgical difficulty and low surgical risks, and can provide 15°-30° angular kyphosis correction effect. VCR or PVCR is a representative method of osteotomy and correction. The kyphosis correction can reach 50° and is suitable for patients with severe angular kyphosis. VCD, DCVO, and Y-shaped osteotomy are emerging surgical techniques in recent years. Compared with VCR, the surgical risks are lower and the treatment effects also improve to varying degrees. Postoperative recovery is also a very important part of the perioperative period and should be taken seriously. Conclusion There is no consensus on the choice of surgical treatment for angular kyphosis in spinal tuberculosis. Osteotomy surgery are invasive, which is a problem that colleagues have always been concerned about. It is best to choose a surgical method with less trauma while ensuring the effectiveness.
ObjectiveTo summary the diagnosis and surgical treatment experiences of posterior collicular fracture of medial malleolus. MethodsBetween March 2008 and November 2010, 14 patients having lateral and (or) posterior malleolus fractures with posterior collicular fracture of medial malleolus were treated with open reduction and internal fixation, including 5 males and 9 females with an average age of 44.5 years (range, 27-60 years). The causes of injuries were strain in 9 cases, traffic accident in 3 cases, and falling from height in 2 cases. The course of fracture ranged from 3 to 9 days (mean, 6.5 days). Fourteen cases were lateral malleolus fractures, 10 cases were posterior malleolus fractures. According to Lauge-Hansen classification, there were 8 cases of pronation-external rotation type, 3 cases of pronation-abduction type, and 3 cases of supination-external rotation type. ResultsAll incisions healed by first intention with no complication. The patients were followed up 12-24 months (mean, 16.8 months). The X-ray films showed that all fractures healed from 2 to 4 months after operation (mean, 2.9 months). The range of motion (ROM) of affected ankles was (38.40 ± 3.50)° of flexion and was (16.30 ± 2.41)° of extension, showing no significant difference when compared with ROM of normal side [(40.50 ± 3.48)° and (17.90 ± 2.28)°, P gt; 0.05]. All patients’ ankle function was evaluated by Olerud-Molander’s score criteria for ankle function evaluation, the results were excellent in 7 cases, good in 6 cases, and fair in 1 case. ConclusionSpiral CT plays an indispensable role in diagnosis of posterior collicular fracture of medial malleolus. Surgical reduction and rigid fixation should be performed.
Objective To assess the short-term effect of the mini-invasive surgical method by Achillon in repair of acute achilles tendon rupture. Methods Between December 2009 and February 2010, 11 patients (11 feet) with acute achilles tendon ruptures were treated, including 8 males (8 feet) and 3 females (3 feet) with an average age of 35.4 years (range, 23-58 years). There were 9 cases of jump injury, 1 case of glass cut injury, and 1 case of fall injury. The results of Thompson testwere positive in 11 cases (11 feet). According to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfootscoring system, the score was 53.19 ± 6.31. MRI indicated that the gap of the acute achilles tendon rupture was 1-5 cm (3.8 cm on average). The interval between injury and operation was 2-7 days (3.6 days on average). An approximately longitudinal 3- 4 cm incision was performed and the ruptured achilles tendon was repaired by use of Achillon. Early rehabil itation was carried out. Results The operation time was 27-58 minutes (38 minutes on average). The hospital ization time were 2-3 days (2.5 days on average). Superficial wound infections occurred in 2 cases, and wound healed after dressing change; orther incision healed by first intention. All the patients were followed up 5-8 months with an average of 6.7 months. No wound problems, sural nerve injuries, or re-ruptures occurred in the other cases. After a 3-month follow-up, all patients were able to return to normal walking. The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was 94.32 ± 4.23, showing significant difference when compared with that before operation (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion The technique with Achillon offers patients a safe procedure for repair of acute achilles tendon ruptures and early active rehabil itation can be carried out.
【Abstract】Objective To explore the feasibility that the recipient against donor antigen-specific T lymphocytes clones are formed,and the suicide genes are induced into the clone. In the end it may induce the transplanted-organ tolerance. Methods The recipient rats were immunized by the donor rats-splenocytes, then the recipient’s T cell were isolated, purified and diluted with limited-dilute methods into single cell.The T cells were cultured by adding raise cells,ConA or IL2 under the different concentration and at last the T cell clone were formed. Results A stable recipient against donor antigen-specific T cell clone was established. The difference among the different immune groups was very significant(tgt;t0.05). The T cell clone was not formed without raise cells or only with raise cells. The rare clone could be formed by ConA stimulation but without IL-2. The clone-forming rate was associated with concentration of IL-2. ConclusionThe mature T cell is able to proliferate to form clone when the condition is suitable. The recipient is immunized with donor rats spleen cellular antigen. The T cells clones selected in the end are donor antigen-specific.
Objective To summarize the advances in MRI-based bone quality scoring systems and their clinical applications. Methods A comprehensive literature review was conducted on recent studies related to the MRI-based bone quality scoring system, focusing on measurement methods, influencing factors, and clinical significance. Results Osteoporosis has a high incidence in China, significantly impacting patients’ quality of life and the postoperative outcomes of related orthopedic surgeries. Early identification of osteoporosis holds important clinical significance. In recent years, both domestic and international research has enriched the MRI-based bone quality scoring systems, which includes vertebral bone quality scoring, endplate bone quality scoring, and pedicle bone quality scoring. Compared to the “gold standard” of bone density measurement, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, the bone quality scoring systems demonstrate good efficacy in identifying abnormal bone mass and predicting postoperative complications, while being less influenced by degenerative changes in the lumbar spine, indicating its important clinical application value. ConclusionThe MRI-based bone quality scoring systems have good value in clinical applications. However, current studies are mostly retrospective cohort and case-control studies, which carry a risk of bias. The clinical application value needs further clarification through meta-analysis and large-scale prospective studies.
