Objective To explore the influence of nonylphenol(NP) on the filial generation rats spatial learning and memory capacity which were exposed to the parent rat during its pregnancy. Methods At the first day of the pregnancy, the rats were divided into four groups, which were orally administered with NP at doses of 0,50, 100 and 200 mg/kg,respectively, on gestational days 9～15. Cognitive function was tested by Morris water maze and step-down test. The ultrastructure of hippocampus tissues were observed by electronic microscope.Result The escape latency extended ((61.14±5.92) s) and erroring time increased ((4.57±1.13)times) in Morris water maze, and step down latency extended ((37.5±6.3)s), step through latency shortened((97.8±11.0)s) and erroring time increased ((3.0±1.4) times) in step down test in the N P 200 mg/kg treated groups (P<0 05). The correspond indexes were separately (35.85±4. 29) s, (2.57±0.97) time, (27.1±3.8) s,(172.0±89.2)s and(0.9±0.7)time in control group. Compared to the control group, there were significant differences in the results of the water maze test and step-down test between NP 200 mg/kg and the control group (P <005). The changes of the uhrastructure were found among the hippocampus neurons of NP 200 mg/kg group that characterized with chromatin condensed,clumped in circa-nuclei and mitochondrial tumefaction and vacuolization.Conclusion Exposures to NP during gestation might decreased abilities of spatial learning and memory capacity on F1 rats significantly.

Objective: To summarize the technical points and clinical efficacy of pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) in tunneling and to explore the related complications of this technique. Methods: A total of 67 cases of old vertebral fractures of the thoracolumbar region from June 2012 to June 2017 were collected. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 41 cases were included in the study. There were 19 males and 22 females; aged 37-67 years, mean 60.1±12.7 years; 15 cases of non-surgical treatment after trauma, 13 cases of failure after surgery and 13 cases of osteoporosis. Injury segment: 9 cases of T11, 22 cases of T12, 8 cases of L1, 2 cases of LS. Preoperative patients were diagnosed by X-ray, CT plain and 3D reconstruction combined with MRI. There were 23 cases of intractable back pain, 16 cases of lower extremity root pain, and 2 cases of intermittent claudication. Patients were divided into the traditional PSO treatment group (21 cases) and modified PSO treatment group (20 persons) according to the random number method. The traditional group were treated with the "egg shell" technique, and the improved group were treated with tunnel forming technology. The procedure was divided into four steps: exposure (step 1), nail placement and resection of the posterior column complex (step 2), vertebral osteotomy (step 3), orthopedics and bone grafting (step 4). The operation time, bleeding volume and complications of each step were compared between the two groups. The clinical efficacy was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and the Oswestry disability index (ODI). The X-ray spine Cobb angle was measured to evaluate the Keloid deformity correction, and the bone graft fusion was observed by CT examination. Results: All patients were followed up for 12 to 24 months. The total operation time of the traditional group was 273.3±21.1 min, and the total operation time of the modified group was 178.1±12.5 min, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=8.981, P=0.0019). The differences between the two groups in steps 2 and 3 were statistically significant (t₂=4.614, P₂=0.036; t₃=9.089, P₃=0.020) . The difference in the total bleeding volume was statistically significant (t=8.529, P=0.011). The differences in the bleeding volume between the two groups in step 2 and step 3 were statistically significant (t₂=11.933, P₂=0.016; t₃=6.972, P₃=0.013). The Cobb angles of the traditional group before surgery, 1 week after surgery and half year after surgery were 40.2°±8.9°, 12.5°±6.8°, 10.4°±2.5°, respectively. The Cobb angles of the modified group before surgery, 1 week after operation and half year after surgery were 39.5°±6.3°, 10.4°±3.5°, 9.5°±1.9°, respectively. The differences in the Cobb angle between the preoperative, postoperative 1 week and postoperative half year were statistically significant(F_{modified group}=189.573, P_{modified group}=0.021; F_{traditional group}=194.699, P_{traditional group}=0.029). The bone fusion time in the osteotomy area was 3-6 months, with an average of 4.8 months. The VAC and ODI scores of half-year post operation of the traditional group were 2.1±0.3 and 34.1±4.3, and the improved group were 2.2±1.1 and 28.3±6.8, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant. In the improved group, there were 1 case of over-excavation and 1 case of over-underexcavation (2/20), which were corrected in time during operation. In the traditional group, 4 cases (4/21) of dural tear occurred during the operation, and were repaired in time. Bone fusion was obtained half a year later. No clinical deaths, and no cases of surgical infection occured. Conclusion Tunnel forming technology is an alternative surgical procedure for treating old fractures of the thoracolumbar region with PSO, which can shorten the operation time, reducd intraoperative bleeding and reduce surgical complications.
