Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of a newly-designed temporary covered cardia stent for the treatment of achalasia in canine models and to investigate the histopathological changes at different points of follow-up time after the stent was removed. Methods The canine achalasia model was created by injecting benzyl-dimethyl-tetradecyl ammonium chloride (BAC) circumferentially into the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) of the dogs. Twenty-four dogs with achalasia were randomly and equally divided into two groups with 12 dogs in each group:control group (using routine esophageal stents) and study group (using newly-designed temporary covered cardia stents). Under fluoroscopic guidance stents were implanted in the esophagus and were taken away from the esophagus 4 days after stent insertion in experimental dogs of both groups. LES pressures and timed barium esophagography (TBE) were performed in all dogs before and immediately after the stenting procedure,as well as at one week,3 and 6 months after the stent was removed. Every three dogs were sacrificed each time at one week,3 and 6 months after the stent was removed. The esophageal cardia was excised and sent for pathological examination. Results All animals well tolerated the stent insertion / removal and the follow-up procedures. No severe complications such as esophageal perforation occurred. Comparison between two groups showed that stent migration occurrence was much lower in study group (n = 1) than that in control group (n = 5). The reduction of LES pressures in study group was more significant in comparison with control group (at 6-month follow-up,P = 0.027). The difference in barium column product (height ? width) between 0-min and 5-min TBE was statistically significant in study group (at 3-month follow-up,P = 0.009). Integrated analysis of multi-comparison for LES pressures among subgroups of each group revealed that the dogs in study group exhibited better outcomes than the dogs in control group. Both proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and ?-smooth muscle actin (?-SMA) immuno-staining revealed that the inflammatory reaction reached its peak at 1-month follow-up. Trichrome staining indicated that the collagenous fiber proliferating index inclined to be stable at 3-month follow-up. Conclusion In treating achalasia in canine models the newly-designed temporary covered cardia stent is superior to the routine esophageal stent in respect of safety and efficacy.

Objective To investigate the relationship between pelvic asymmetry and Crowe classification of unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip in adults. Methods According to the inclusion criteria, 100 cases of unilateral DDH in adults were collected, including 78 females and 22 males, with an average age of 56.3 years old (range, 21-79 years). In terms of Crowe classification, there were 30 cases of Crowe typeⅠ, 24 cases of Crowe typeⅡ, 23 cases of Crowe typeⅢ, and 23 cases of CroweⅣ. The normal?side and affected?side pelvic vertical height (the distance from the highest point of the ischial tuberosity to the iliac crest peak) were measured via the radiogram of anteroposterior pelvis. Furthermore, we compared the affected?side pelvic vertical height with the normal?side and analyzed the relationship between Crowe classification and the difference in pelvic verti?cal height. Results The average pelvic vertical height was 23.38±1.46 cm in the normal?side and 22.41±1.38 cm in the affected?side. The average D?value of pelvic vertical height between two sides is 0.98 ± 0.76 cm. From Crowe typeⅠto Ⅳ, the average heights of the normal?side were 22.89±1.09 cm, 23.23±2.07 cm, 23.75±1.16 cm, 23.79±1.22 cm, while those of the affected?side were 22.70 ± 0.98 cm, 22.41 ± 1.98 cm, 22.47 ± 1.12 cm and 21.92 ± 1.32 cm. The average D?values in each group were 0.19 ± 0.37 cm, 0.82±0.43 cm, 1.28±0.32 cm, 1.87±0.59 cm. The differences between the normal?side and the affected?side in each type were statistically significant. The average D?value increased significantly with Crowe type increased, and there was a positive correla?tion between the D?value of bilateral pelvic vertical height and the degree of hip dislocation. Conclusion The pelvic asymmetry does exist in adult patients with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip. Moreover, the asymmetry has positive correlation with the degree of hip dislocation.
