Objective To evaluate the feasibility of using the posterior approach with cervical pedicle screw fixation technique for the treatment of lower cervical spine fractures and dislocations.Methods Thirty patients suffered lower cervical fractures and dislocations were retrospectively analyzed,and they were underwent cervical pedicle screw system fixation surgery from January 2010 to December 2012.There were 22 males and 8 females,with an average age of 41 years (range,24-61 years).Eight injuries were located at C4,5,12 at C5,6,and 10 at C6.7.According to the American Spinal Cord Injury Association (ASIA)impairment scale,8 cases were grade A,12 were grade B,5 were grade C,3 were grade D,and 2 were grade E.Results Reduction and fixation of the injured segments were performed via a posterior approach in all 30 patients.One hundred and forty pedicle screws were inserted successfully in all patients on the postoperative radiographic and CT scans.All the patients were followed up for 3-23 months,with the average of 11 months.According to the ASIA impairment scale,eight cases with grade A were still grade A,but the feeling and movement improved obviously.Ten grade B improved to grade C and the rest cases were complete recovery after operations.During the course of the follow up,solid bone union was achieved in all patients,and there were no hardware failures.All the patients' postoperative MRI showed disappearance of the spinal cord compression after reduction in all cases.Conclusion For the patients of lower cervical fractures and dislocation,the first choice of operation should be the posterior approach reduction and fixation with cervical pedicle screw.The correct lengthwise traction method could unblock the locked facet effectively,and prevent the retrusion of disc and the further injury of spinal cord.For the patients of disc disruption,the posterior approach could be used only.The cervical pedicle screw system could provide three-dimensional reduction of the injured cervical segments and the adequate mechanical strength.The posterior approach combined with pedicle screw fixation is feasible and effective for the treatment of lower cervical fractures and dislocation.

Objective To explore the effect of SIRT1 gene silencing on the radiosensitivity of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cells.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to measure the protein expression of SIRT1 in DLBCL tissues.Western blot was used to measure the expression of SIRT1 in DLBCL cell lines (OCI-Ly3,SU-DHL-2,and SU-DHL-4) and the immortalized B cell line HMy2.CIR.After SU-DHL-4 cells were transfected with si-SIRT1 and si-NC using Lipofectamine 2000,the expression of SIRT1 was determined by Western blot.MTT assay and colony-forming assay were used to assess the cell growth and colony formation ability of SU-DHL-4 cells treated with radiation.The group t-test or univariate analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups.Results The expression rate of SIRT1 in DLBCL tissues was 72.6%(103/140),which was significantly higher than that in reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (RLH) tissues (26.5%,8/25)(P=0.001).The SIRT1 expression was significantly higher in DLBCL cells than in HMy2.CIR cells (P=0.020).After SIRT1 gene silencing by si-SIRT1,the expression of SIRT1 was significantly reduced in SU-DHL-4 cells (P=0.008).Besides,SIRT1 gene silencing significantly reduced the growth rate and colony formation ability of SU-DHL-4 cells treated with radiation (P=0.030).Conclusions SIRT1 gene silencing enhances the radiosensitivity of DLBCL cells,providing a novel target for the radiotherapy of DLBCL.

Objective To quantitatively analyze total hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA (HBV tDNA),covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) and HBsAg in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB),HBV-related liver cirrhosis (LC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),and to analyze the characteristics.Methods HBV tDNA and HBV cccDNA in the serum and liver biopsy samples were measured in 21 CHB,23 LC and 25 HCC patients by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. HBsAg titer was measured by chemiluminescence. Normally distributed variables among multiple groups were analyzed by ANOVA and t-test.Correlation between two variables was tested using Pearson correlation analysis.Skewed distribution was tested using Rank sum test.Results In CHB,LC and HCC patients,the serum HBV tDNA levels were (5.38±2.08),(4.96± 1.65) and (4.18 ± 0.91) lg copy/mL,respectively; the intrahepatic HBV tDNA levels in three groups were (7.18±1.91),(6.51±1.87) and (5.87± 1.47) lg copy/ug,respectively; the intrahepatic HBV cccDNA levels were (3.53±2.03),(2.63±2.13) and (0.58± 1.40) lg copy/μg,respectively; the serum HBsAg levels were (3.30±0.65),(3.12±0.52) and (2.60± 1.03) lg IU/mL,respectively.In CHB patients,the serum HBV tDNA,intrahepatic HBV tDNA,HBV cccDNA and HBsAg levels were all significantly higher than those of HCC patients (t=2.446,P=0.013; t=2.562,P=0.014;t=5.799,P＜0.01 ; t=2.709,P=0.003,respectively).However,only intrahepatic HBV cccDNA and HBsAg levels were statistically different between LC and HCC patients (t=-3.894,P＜0.01;t=-2.237,P=0.023,respectively).HBV cccDNA was all negative in the serum of 69 patients.The serum HBsAg level was positively correlated with serum HBV tDNA (r=0.290,P=0.016),intrahepatic HBV tDNA (r=0.372,P =0.002) and intrahepatic HBV cccDNA (r=0.378,P=0.001).Conclusions The levels of HBV tDNA,HBV cccDNA and HBsAg decrease gradually with the disease progression.The serum HBsAg level is positively correlated with serum HBV tDNA,intrahepatic HBV tDNA and intrahepatic HBV cccDNA.

Objective To observe the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation(TEAS)on circulation depression in patients underwent thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer under general anesthesia combined with thoracic paravertebral block(TPVB).Methods A total of 150 patients from Octomber 2021 to May 2022,58 males and 92 females,aged 19-64 years,BMI 18-30 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,underwent thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer under general anesthesia combined with TPVB were enrolled.According to random number table method,the patients were divided into two groups:the TEAS group and the control group,75 patients in each group.In the TEAS group,transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation was performed at Hegu,Neiguan,and Zusanli 30 minutes be-fore induction until the end of operation.In the control group,the electrodes were only connected at the same time point without electrical stimulation.HR,SBP,DBP,MAP,and BIS were recorded before stimu-lation(T0),10 minutes after TPVB(T1),the time of skin incision(T2),30 minutes after operation star-ted(T3),60 minutes after operation started(T4),the end of operation(T5),and 30 minutes after opera-tion(T6).The incidences of bradycardia,tachycardia,hypotension,and hypertension,and the usages of vasoactive drugs during operation were recorded.The dosages of propofol,sufentanil,and remifentanil in the operation were recorded.The VAS pain score 1,2,and 7 days after operation,the usages of analgesics used within 7 days after operation,postoperative adverse effects such as nausea and vomiting,dizziness,chest tightness,and shortness of breath,and the length of hospital stay were recorded.Results Compared with the control group,intraoperative infusion volume,incidence of hypotension,hypertension,and circulation depression,the usages of deoxyepinephrine,ephedrine,norepinephrine,and urapidil intraoperation,VAS pain scores 1 and 2 days after operation,and the usage of analgesics within 7 days after operation were sig-nificantly decreased(P＜0.05),length of hospital stay was significantly shortened(P＜0.05),SBP,DBP,and MAP were significantly increased at T1(P＜0.05),the dosagesof propofol,sufentanil,and remifentanil were significantly decreased in the TEAS group(P＜0.05).There were no significantly differ-ences of nausea and vomiting,dizziness,and shortness of breath between the two groups.Conclusion TEAS can improve the circulation depression,and reduce the incidences of intraoperative hypotension and hypertension,decrease the dosages of anesthetics and the rate of using vasoactive drugs during operation,improve early postoperative acute pain and shorten the length of hospital stay in patients undergoing thoraco-scopic radical resection of lung cancer under general anesthesia combined with TPVB.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and prognosis of acute hyperextension spinal cord injury (SCI) in children, and to provide some recommendations for the treatment and prevention of this disease.Methods:Reviewed the data of children of SCI after sustained or repeated hyperextension of the spine at Wuhan Union Hospital and Wuhan Children's Hospital from September 2010 to September 2020. According to the American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale (AIS grade), the patients were divided into complete SCI group and incomplete SCI group. The age, symptoms and evolution after injury, neurological level of injury, imaging data, laboratory examination data, prognosis and complications of the two groups were analyzed. Retrospectively summarize the characteristics of this type of injury.Results:Forty-four cases of acute hyperextension SCI in children were included. Their age ranged from 3 to 10 years old, 95% of them were under 8 years old and 95% of them were female. There was no significant difference in age at injury and time of dance training between children with complete SCI and incomplete SCI. Back and leg pain, lower limb weakness or paresthesia, and rapidly progress to complete or incomplete SCI in a short period were typical symptoms. All blood test results anddiagnostic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid were unremarkable or negative. There was no fracture or dislocation in the whole spine. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a longitudinally extended intramedullary high-intensity signal in the thoracolumbar spinal cord. Complete SCI accounted for 60% of all cases, and the prognosis was poor with spinal cord atrophy and various complications.Conclusion:Children younger than 10 years old after sustained or repeated hyperextension of the spine may suffer acute hyperextension SCI. Children with complete SCI have poor prognosis and serious complications. Therefore, prevention of this type of injury is the best strategy.
