This article reviewed the literatures about degeneration at the segments adjacent to the fusional and instrumental segments. The hypertrophic degenerative arthritis of the facet joints, intervertebral instability and spinal stenosis were the common pathologic changes. The changes usually occurred at the upper segment of spinal fusion. The average time period for the development of adjacent segment degeneration might be shortened after spinal fusion with instrumentation. The main reason was stress and hypermobility increased at the adjacent segment and postoperative malalignment of the spine after spinal fusion.

Objective Pedode foxatoon at the level of fracture vetebral technology is widely used in rebuilding spnal fracture recently.The purpose of minimally invasive surgery for thoracolumbar fractures is to reduce the injury , fix segments, and rebuild the stability of the spine .This study aimed to investigate the short-term clinical effect of pedicle fixation at the fractured vertebra via the pa-ravertebral intermuscular approach for the treatment of thoracolumbar fractures . Methods We treated 24 cases of thoracolumbar fracture by pedicle fixation at the fractured vertebra via the paravertebral intermuscular approach , rebuilt spinal stability , and corrected kyphotic deformity .We evaluated the improvement of pain symptoms and life quality using The Visual Analogue Scale ( VAS) and The MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), and assessed the corrected status of vertebral height loss and kyphotic deformity by radiographic measurement .All the patients were followed up for over 12 months. Results The VAS score of the patients was signifi-cantly higher while the SF-36 score remarkably lower before surgery than the scores in 12 months which were ([7.65 ±0.13] -[1.54 ±0.07], P<0.05) and ([90.21 ±2.02]-[117.21 ±1.02], P<0.05).Imaging evaluation showed desirable correction of the reduced height of the injured vertebrae and kyphotic deformity . Conclusion Pedicle fixation at the fractured vertebra via the pa-ravertebral intermuscular approach , with its advantages of minimal invasiveness and fewer segments of fixation , can effectively correct vertebral height reduction and kyphotic deformity .

BACKGROUND: It has been verified in relevant clinical and epidemiological researches in recent years that a part of stomatopathy is associated to psychological stress factors.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between the changes in salivary secretory IgA and cortisol and psychological stress states.DESIGN: cross-sectional investigation was designed.SETTING: Department of Stomatology, Zhejiang University.PARTICIPANTS: The investigated participants were 60 students in the 2nd grade of Fuzhou №.2 Senior School selected from May to November 2003. Fifty-seven of them accomplished the investigation, of male; aged varied from 17 to 19 years, of healthy, no stomatopathy and family history of disorders in immune system and without indulgence in smoke and alcohol. All of them had participated in the 3-day terminal exam.METHODS: Before the exam, evaluation with symptom checklist (there are 90 questions, including about 10 factors, such as somatization, compulsive state, sensitive interpersonal relationships, melancholy, anxiety, hostility, fear, paranoid state, psychotic state and others. The total average score results by divided total score with 90. ) was applied. Fifty-seven students that had accomplished the investigation were divided in low-symptom group (the total score of symptom checklist ＜ 2.0) and high-symptom group (the total score ≥ 2.0). 5 weeks before the exam, the students were called together to fill up investigation form of general situation. Four weeks before the exam and at 7: 30 am on the day of exam, the first and second saliva specimens were collected respectively to determine salivary secretory IgA and cortisol before and after exam stress. The students were called together again 3 days after exam to fill up questionnaire on psychological health to evaluate their psychological health state.stress.RESULTS: Intention management analysis was adopted, in which 57 stulist with Chinese norm: after exam, the scores of 4 factors, named compulsive state, anxiety, hostility and paranoid state, were higher than Chinese norm [(1.98±0.72, 1.69±0.61) scores; (1.79±0.31, 1.42±0.43) scores; (1.77±0.68,1.50±0.57)scores; (2.00±0.71, 1.52±0.60)scores, P ＜ 0.01] and there was parison of salivary secretory IgA content after stress: that before exam in low symptom group was remarkably higher than that in high symptom group [(236.6±82.29),(194.55±66.29) mg/L, P ＜ 0.05], that after exam in low symptom group was higher than that in high symptom group [(182.21±55.92,tration after stress: that after exam in low symptom group was remarkably higher than that in high symptom group [(5.96±2.46, 3.68±2.26) μg/L, P secretory IgA and cortisol in two groups: the decrease rate of secretory IgA (0.012±0.197) and increase rate of cortisol (0.199±0.654) were relevant to compulsive state and paranoid state.CONCLUSION: In evaluation with symptom checklist after exam, the scores of anxiety, compulsive state, hostility and paranoid state were higher than Chinese norm, indicating that exam stress induces increased anxiety level and variation of psychological behavior of students. The difference presented in decrease rate of salivary secretory IgA before and after exam stress between high and low symptom groups, explaining that the students with more psychological symptoms are weak to endure exam stress.
