BACKGROUND:Many studies concern the comparison of posterior laminectomy and instrumented fusion and posterior laminoplasty for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy, but the sample size of many studies has limitations. There is lack of objective evaluation on advantages and disadvantages of two surgical methods. OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of posterior laminectomy and instrumented fusion and laminoplasty in the treatment of multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy. METHODS:A systematic search of al the studies published was conducted on the PubMed, Cochrane Central, EMbase, the ISI Web of Knowledge Database, CMB, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang databases. Randomized and non-randomized control ed trials that compared between posterior laminectomy and instrumented fusion and laminoplasty for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy were identified. Meta-analyses were performed in postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores, cervical range of motion, cervical curvature index, incidence of C5 nerve root paralysis and incidence of axial symptoms. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Fourteen studies involving 1 024 patients were included. Among the patients, 519 underwent laminectomy and instrumented fusion and 505 underwent laminoplasty. (2) The results of the meta-analysis indicated that, compared with laminectomy and instrumented fusion group, laminoplasty group had advantages of a lower incidence of C5 palsy [RR=2.24, 95%CI(1.33,3.75), Z=3.05, P<0.05] and smal degree of cervical rotation injury [SMD=-0.71, 95%CI(-2.21,-1.2), Z=6.63, P<0.05]. However, the two groups had no statistical difference in postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association score, cervical curvature index and the incidence of axial symptoms. (3) These results suggested that both laminectomy and instrumented fusion and laminoplasty were demonstrated to be effective for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Laminoplasty had obvious advantages of decreasing the degree of cervical rotation injury and lowering incidence of C5 palsy. However, in the process of clinical diagnosis and treatment, the patient’s condition should be combined. The long-term clinical efficacy of the technology needs more clinical work to confirm.

BACKGROUND:The in vivo degradation process of chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite porous scaffolds is not very clear. Research on the effects of rat osteoblasts and degradation products is less.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biocompatiblity of rat osteoblasts with degradation products of chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite porous scaffolds.
METHODS:The second generation of cultured rat osteoblasts were respectively cultured in the extract of degradation products of chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds (experimental group) and Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing 10%fetal bovine serum (control group). At 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 days of culture, cel counting was measured by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. Alkaline phosphatase activity was measured by the recommended method of determination of the Federation, and total protein was determined by BCA method.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The proliferation speed, alkaline phosphatase activity, total cel ular protein synthesis and ratio of alkaline phosphatase to total protein in rat osteoblasts cultured in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). This experiment showed that the degradation products of chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite porous scaffolds cannot only promote rat osteoblast adhesion, growth and proliferation, but also enhance its ossification function, with good biocompatibility.

Background:
and Purpose Brainstem gliomas (BSGs) in adults are rare brain tumors with dismal outcomes. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical and genetic features in a series of BSGs and their association with the prognosis.
Methods:
Fifty patients who underwent a stereotactic biopsy between January 2016 and April 2018 at a single institution were collected. Data on clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed and factors associated with patient survival were identified using a Cox regression model.
Results:
The median age at diagnosis was 55.5 years, and 62% of the patients were male. Glioblastoma (44%) accounted for the largest proportion of BSGs, and oligodendroglioma (2 of 50) was rarely encountered. The IDH mutation (6 of 44) occurred infrequently in astrocytomas, and IDH-mutant tumors harbored both ATRX loss and MGMT promoter methylation at a relatively low level. Wild-type IDH astrocytomas were identified as having high rates of 1p/19q codeletion (5 of 38) and loss of heterozygosity 1p (8 of 38) or 19q (8 of 38) only. In diffuse midline glioma H3K27M mutant, MGMT promoter methylation occurred in three of four cases. Patients were offered radiotherapy and/or concurrent/adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy, and their median survival time was 13 months. Multivariate analysis revealed that a low tumor grade, absence of tumor enhancement, duration of symptoms ≥3 months, Karnofsky performance status ≥70, and ATRX loss conferred a survival advantage.
Conclusions
Adult BSGs showed different molecular genetic characteristics, but also resembled supratentorial gliomas in their clinical features associated with oncological outcomes.
