Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes and complications of oblique lateral interbody fusion combined with bilateral pedicle screw fixation through intermuscular approach and posterior interbody fusion combined with bilateral pedicle screw fixation through intermuscular approach by channel for lumbar spinal stenosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 73 patients who underwent surgical treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis from Jun 2015 to Jun 2017, including 33 males and 40 females. The average age was 66.8±7.94 years (from 39-85 years). These diseases occured at L 3/4 in 5 patients and L 4/5 in 68 patients. Random according to the time of admission, 38 cases were treated with oblique lateral interbody fusion combined with bilateral pedicle screw fixation through intermuscular approach (oblique lateral fusion group), and 35 cases with posterior interbody fusion combined with bilateral pedicle screw fixation through intermuscular approach by channel (posterior fusion group). The clinical results, image data and complications were compared between the two groups. Results:All patients in both groups had operation performed smoothly. The operation time was 99±8.96 min in the oblique lateral fusion group and 96.8±9.57 min in the posterior fusion group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups. The intraoperative bleeding in the oblique lateral fusion group 80±24.72 ml was significantly less than that in the posterior fusion group 261±52.87 ml ( t=9.621, P<0.05). No incision infection occurred after surgery. The VAS score of lumbar incision 72h after operation in the oblique lateral fusion group 1.21±0.55 was significantly less than that in the posterior fusion group 1.70±0.86 ( t=3.723, P=0.028). The follow-up period lasted for 12-24 months, averagely 17.5±2.58 months. There was statistically significant difference between preoperative and postoperative in the two groups, whether it was the area of the foraminal canal or the area of the spinal canal. There wboth the foraminal area and the spinal canal area were enlarged. The intervertebral space height in the two groups recovered significantly after surgery, the difference was statistically significant. But the intervertebral space height were partly lost at the last follow-up, and there was significant difference compared with postoperative. During the follow-up, no pedicle screw loosening, displacement, rupture, or anterior and lateral displacement of cage occurred. The fusion rate was 97.1% in the posterior fusion group and 100% in the oblique lateral fusion group. There was no statistical difference between the two groups.In terms of ODI index: the posterior fusion group recovered from 48.6±6.1 preoperative to 10.2±2.2 at the last follow-up, and the oblique lateral fusion group recovered from 49.0±5.7 preoperative to 9.3±1.8 at the last follow-up. There was statistically difference between last follow-up and preoperative in the two groups. The incidence of complications in the posterior fusion group was 22.86%, and the incidence in the oblique lateral fusion group was 23.68%. There was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion:Both the two decompression and fusion methods have achieved good clinical results in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis, with the advantages of less trauma, good stability, fast recovery, and high fusion rate. Compared with posterior decompression and fusion methods, the advantages of OLIF are more obvious, such as less bleeding,lower risk of nerve injury and good indirect decompression of spinal canal. Therefore, the OLIF technique can be a better choice for surgical treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis.

Objective:
To evaluate the repeatability of corneal biomechanics parameters measured by Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology (Corvis ST) and explore the factors that influence the repeatability.
Methods:
A diagnostic test study was performed.A total of 190 eyes in 95 myopia patients (34 males and 61 females) were enrolled from September to October 2017 in Henan Eye Hospital.All the subjects underwent 5 repeated examinations with the Corvis ST.The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), Cronbach α coefficients and repeatability coefficient (RC) were computed to evaluate repeatability of Corvis ST parameters.The multiple linear regression analysis was used to study the factors that affect the magnitude of the test-retest variability (within subject SD) of new Corvis ST parameters.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Henan Eye Hospital (HNEECKY-2019[5]), and written informed consent was obtained from each subject.
Results:
Among the 39 biomechanics parameters, The ICC and Cronbach α were greater than 0.75 for 26 parameters, within 0.60-0.75 for 4 parameters, and lower than 0.60 for deflection amplitude max time (DLAMT). The ICC and Cronbach α of DA ratio max[1 mm], DA ratio max [2 mm], max inverse radius, Ambrósio's relational thickness horizontal (ARTh), biomechanical intraocular pressure (bIOP), integrated radius, stiffness parameter applanation 1 (SPA1) and Corvis biomechanical index (CBI)were all above 0.920.The multivariate regression results indicated that the within subject SD of bIOP increased with the increase of IOP (

Background:
and Purpose Collateral circulation is considered an important factor affecting the risk of stroke, but the factors that affect collateral circulation remain unclear. This study was performed to identify the factors associated with collateral circulation, especially blood lipids.
Methods:
The study involved patients who had undergone digital subtraction angiography and were confirmed as having severe unilateral stenosis or occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA). We classified the collateral circulation status of each patient as good (Grade 3 or 4) or poor (Grade 0, 1, or 2) according to the grading system of the American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/American Society of Interventional Radiology. We collected data on patients’ characteristics and identified the factors that affect collateral circulation.
Results:
This study included 212 patients. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and a complete anterior half of the circle of Willis were independent protective factors for good collateral circulation, whereas elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and serum creatinine concentrations were independent risk factors for good collateral circulation. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) was 0.68 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.61–0.76) for HDL-C and 0.69 (95% CI, 0.62–0.76) for Lp(a). A binary logistic regression model analysis of the joint factor of HDL-C and Lp(a) yielded an AUC of 0.77 (95% CI, 0.71–0.84).
Conclusions
In patients with severe unilateral ICA stenosis or occlusion, the combination of HDL-C and Lp(a) is a useful predictor of collateral circulation.
