BACKGROUND:According to different locations of lumbar disc herniation,it can be classified into many types.Among them,patients with intradural sac type lumbar disc herniation have severe clinical symptoms,which greatly affect their quality of life.Therefore,this article studies the risk factors for its onset,and improving the preoperative diagnostic rate is of great significance for the treatment and prevention of this disease.OBJECTIVE:To explore the risk factors for intradural lumbar disc herniation.METHODS:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 15 patients with intradural lumbar disc herniation(herniation group)admitted to three hospitals in Xuzhou city from May 2014 to November 2022.Propensity score matching was used to match patients with lumbar disc herniation who did not protrude into the dura mater in a ratio of 1:4.A total of 59 patients were selected and included in the non-herniation group.Clinical data were observed in the two groups.Univariate and binary logistic regression analysis,multiple linear regression,and PROBIT regression analysis were utilized to identify the relevant risk factors for intradural lumbar disc herniation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The results of univariate analysis showed that the average disease course,proportion of segments,modified Pfiirmann grading,sacral tilt angle,proportion of previous lumbar spine surgery history,and proportion of heavy manual workers,proportion of lumbar spinal stenosis,redundancy of the cauda equina,and ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament all showed statistical differences in the herniation and non-herniation groups(P＜0.05).(2)Multivariate regression analysis showed that duration of disease,protruding segment,history of lumbar surgery,modified Pfiirmann grading,cauda equina redundancy,and lumbar spinal stenosis were independent risk factors for intradural lumbar disc herniation.(3)Based on the influencing factors,an receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed,with an area under curve of 0.956(95％CI:0.913-0.998),indicating good discrimination.(4)There was a significant correlation between the duration of the disease,the protruded segment,the history of lumbar spine surgery,the modified Pfirmann classification,cauda equina redundancy,lumbar spinal canal stenosis,and the incidence rate of intradural lumbar disc herniation.

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of Inonotus obliquus polysaccharides on the main organs and hormones of male mice infected with Neosporidium.The animal model of neosporidiosis in BALB/c mice was established.After intragastric administration,the pathological changes of brain,liver and spleen were observed by histopathology,the worm load in brain,liver and spleen was detected by qPCR,and the levels of FSH,LH and T4 in serum of male mice were detected by ELISA.The results showed that compared with the blank control group,granular spherical lesions could be seen in the brain tissue of mice in the model group,with patchy necrosis of hepatocytes,splenic hemorrhage,red pulp hyperemia and a large number of red blood cell infil-tration.Inonotus obliquus polysaccharides can improve the injury of brain,liver,spleen and other organs and tissues.The worm load in the brain of the Inonotus obliquus polysaccharide group was significantly lower than that of the model group on the 14th day and 21st day(P＜0.01),and that of the liver and spleen on the 21st day was significantly lower than that of the model group(P＜0.01).The level of FSH in the model group and Inonotus obliquus polysaccharide group was signif-icantly lower than that in the blank control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),while that in the Inono-tus obliquus polysaccharide group was significantly higher than that in the model group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The level of LH in the model group was significantly higher than that in the blank control group(P＜0.01),while that in the Inonotus obliquus polysaccharide group was significant-ly higher than that in the blank control group on the 7th day and 42nd day(P＜0.05).There was significant difference in T4 level between the model group and the blank group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),while the Inonotus obliquus polysaccharide group was similar to the blank control group on the 21st and 35th day(P＞0.05).Inonotus obliquus polysaccharides can improve the damage of Neosporidium on brain,liver and spleen of male rats,reduce the insect load in brain,liver and spleen,regulate the levels of FSH,LH and T4 hormones,and maintain the stability of reproductive system.
