Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of three chemotherapy regimens and partial excision of the affected vertebrae for spinal tuberculosis. Methods Between December 1998 and November 2003, 76 cases with spinal tuberculosis were treated with chemotherapy and surgical intervention. All pa-tients were divided into three groups randomly to receive one of three different courses of chemotherapy. Among these, 38 cases were selected to receive ultra-short-course chemotherapy regimen with 2SHRZ/ 2.5H2R2Z2, 23 of short-course with 3SHRZ/5H2R2Z2, and 15 of standard with 3SHRZ/9H2R2Z2. The duration of the preoperative chemotherapy of the three groups was about the same with an average of 21 days (15 to 40 days). All patients underwent anterior partial excision of the affected vertebrae, large iliac strut graft and anterior or posterior fixation. Results The mean follow-up time of the ultra-short-course, short-course and standard chemotherapy groups were 23, 28 and 45 months respectively. The observed indices included: 1) Clinical manifestation: disappearance of TB symptoms, the nerve function recovered, life and the work activ-ities. 2) Lab tests: both ESR and CRP data or either of them in normal or near normal status. 3) X-ray, CT and MRI examination: abscesses, new lesion, absorption of the bone grafts, translucent line between bone graft and vertebral body, and correction of kyphotic deformity. 4) Ultrasonic examination: no opaque dark area at the sites where there might be the paravertebral or gravity abscesses. 5) Drug complications: the hepatic and renal function of patients at follow up were normal or close to normal. The follow-up showed that all the three groups achieved excellent results. Conclusion Treatment of spinal tuberculosis with anterior partial excision of pathologic vertebrae, large iliac strut graft and anterior or posterior internal instrumental fixation in either ultra-short-course, short-course or standard chemotherapy all achieved excellent therapeutic effects. There was no difference among three different courses of chemotherapy.

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging in the evaluation of left ventricular rotation and torsion in pre-apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(PAHCM)patients. Methods A total of 26 patients with PAHCM,26 patients with hyperten-sive left ventricular hypertrophy(HLVH)and 26 healthy volunteers were recruited for the study. Two-dimensional echocardiographs were performed carefully. Two-dimensional images were obtained from the left ventricular apical four-chamber section,two-chamber section and two short-axis sec-tions,including mitral valve and apical levels. The peak subendocardial rotation(endo-rot),epicardial rotation(epi-rot),transmural torsion(mural-tor)and bulk rotation(bulk-rot)of each short-axis section were measured and analyzed using QLAB 9.1 software. Results In the mitral level, there was no statistically significant difference in endo-rot,epi-rot,mural-tor and bulk-rot between the PAHCM group and normal control group (P>0.05). There was statistically significant difference in endo-rot,epi-rot,mural-tor and bulk-rot between the PAHCM group and HLVH group (all P<0.05). There was statistically significant difference in endo-rot,epi-rot,mural-tor and bulk-rot between the HLVH group and normal control group(all P<0.05). In the apical level,there was no statistically significant difference in epi-rot among three groups(P>0.05). There was statisti-cally significant difference in endo-rot,mural-tor and bulk-rot between each two groups(P<0.05). There was statistically significant difference in G-tor between each two groups(P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the accuracy of differential diagnosis of G-tor PAHCM was high(the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve is 0.89),the sensitivity was 73.08%,and the specificity was 92.31%. Conclusion Two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging could accurately and quantitatively measure the left ventricular rotation and tor-sion in PAHCM patients. The G-tor could accurately screen and identify between PAHCM and HLVH.
