BACKGROUND:Compared with conservative treatment, percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) can rapidly relieve the pain caused by the compression of osteoporotic vertebral body. However, the perfusion of bone cement can not only restore the rigidity of fractured vertebrae, but also theoretical y alter the stress distribution of fractured vertebrae and increase the stress load of adjacent vertebrae, thus causing adjacent intervertebral disc degeneration. <br> OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of PVP and PKP on the adjacent intervertebral disc degeneration and explore the possible mechanism. <br> METHODS:A total of 85 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture were divided into three groups:conservative treatment group (n=23), PVP group (n=42) and PKP group (n=23). ODI scores, DHI, MRII, and peripheral interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-αlevels were col ected and analyzed at different time points. <br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The results showed that, PVP group and PKP group relieved pain effectively, reduced the time in bed, and had a better treatment satisfaction, but there were no significant differences in the scores of ODI scores between PVP group and PKP group at 24 months after discharge (P>0.05). At 24 months after discharge, MRII in the PVP group and PKP group were lower than that in conservative treatment group and before treatment (P<0.05), while peripheral interleukin-1, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-αlevels were higher (P<0.05), there were significant differences between PVP group and PKP group (P<0.05). The disc degeneration adjacent to the fractured vertebral body can be accelerated by PVP and PKP procedures, and the latter is more serious. Interleukin-1, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-αlevels are closely related to the degree of intervertebral disc degeneration.

Objective To explore the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on cognitive ability of patients after ischemic stroke. Methods 45 patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) after ischemic stroke were randomly assigned into control group (n=22) and observation group (n=23). Both groups received routine drugs and cognitive training. The observation group received rTMS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) (5 Hz, 80% motor threshold) in addition for 4 weeks. Results The score of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), P300 latencies and amplitudes improved after treatment in both groups (P<0.001), and were better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). The MoCA score was negatively related with P300 latency (r=-0.851, P<0.05). There was no severe adverse effect during the treatment. Conclusion rTMS could improve the cognitive ability of patients with MCI after stroke, with little side effect.
