Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of endoscopic posterior transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (Endo-PTLIF) and minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) in the treatment of single-segment lumbar degenerative diseases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 56 patients with single-segment lumbar degenerative diseases treated at Xiuzhou District People's Hospital between September 2020 and March 2023. Patients were divided into two groups based on the surgical approach: the Endo-PTLIF group (24 cases, 11 males and 13 females; mean age: 56.5±8.4 years, range: 43-72 years) and the MIS-TLIF group (32 cases, 10 males and 22 females; mean age: 54.5±10.4 years, range: 37-73 years). Perioperative parameters, visual analog scale (VAS) scores for pain, Oswestry disability index (ODI), lumbar lordosis (LL), disc height (DH), and dural sac cross-sectional area (DSCA) were compared between the two groups.Results:No significant differences were observed between the two groups in baseline characteristics, preoperative VAS, ODI, LL, DH, or DSCA ( P>0.05). However, the operative time in the Endo-PTLIF group (173.9±12.3 minutes) was significantly longer than in the MIS-TLIF group (136.5±19.5 minutes, P<0.05). Similarly, the Endo-PTLIF group required more fluoroscopy exposures (15.9±1.8) than the MIS-TLIF group (13.0±1.6, P<0.05). In contrast, intraoperative blood loss in the Endo-PTLIF group (68.9± 12.9 ml) was significantly lower than in the MIS-TLIF group (126.7±35.4 ml, P<0.05). Additionally, the Endo-PTLIF group had a shorter hospital stay [7.00 (6.25, 7.75) days] compared to the MIS-TLIF group [10.00 (9.25, 11.00) days, P<0.05]. At one week and one month postoperatively, the Endo-PTLIF group had significantly lower back pain VAS scores [2.00 (2.00, 3.00) and 2.00 (2.00, 2.00), respectively] and a lower ODI (25.83%±3.83%) compared to the MIS-TLIF group [3.00 (2.25, 4.00), 2.50 (2.00, 3.00), and 30.09%±4.02%, respectively; P<0.05]. Beyond one month postoperatively, there were no significant differences in leg pain VAS scores between the groups, and back pain VAS and ODI showed no significant differences after six months ( P>0.05). At the final follow-up, the excellent and good rates, according to MacNab criteria, were 95.8% in the Endo-PTLIF group and 93.8% in the MIS-TLIF group, with no significant difference ( P>0.05). At 12 months postoperatively, both groups showed significant improvements in LL, DH, and DSCA compared to preoperative values ( P<0.05), but there were no significant differences between the two groups ( P>0.05). The fusion rates were 96% in the Endo-PTLIF group and 94% in the MIS-TLIF group, with no significant difference ( P>0.05). Complications included one case of dural tear in the Endo-PTLIF group, and one case of dural tear and one case of incision infection in the MIS-TLIF group. Conclusion:Endo-PTLIF achieves comparable clinical efficacy to MIS-TLIF in the treatment of single-segment lumbar degenerative diseases, with the added advantages of reduced intraoperative blood loss and faster postoperative recovery.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of full-endoscopic technique through the posterior cervical Delta large portal for the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy and radiculopathy.Methods:The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively of the 15 patients who had been treated for cervical spondylotic myelopathy or radiculopathy at Orthopedics Department, Jiaxing Xiuzhou District People's Hospital from January 2020 to June 2021. There were 6 males and 9 females, aged from 54 to 76 years (average, 66.2 years). Responsible levels: 3 cases of C3, 4, 4 cases of C4, 5, 7 cases of C5, 6 and 1 case of C6, 7. They were all treated by full-endoscopic technique through the posterior cervical Delta large portal. The therapeutic efficacy was assessed by comparing the neck disability indexes (NDI) and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) cervical scores at preoperation, 1 and 3 months post-operation, and the last follow-up, and the modified MacNab scores at the last follow-up. The operative effects on cervical curvature and segmental stability were assessed by comparing the C2-7 cobb angles and operative ranges of motion (ROM) at preoperation, 1 and 3 months postoperation, and the last follow-up.Results:All cases completed their operation successfully. The operation time ranged from 56 to 82 min (average, 65.7 min), and the intraoperative blood loss from 10 to 30 mL (average, 20.7 mL). Tissue infection, intraspinal infection, dural tear, nerve root injury or perioperative anesthesia-related complications occurred in none of the patients. All patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months (average 10.8 months). The NDIs at 1 and 3 months post-operation, and the last follow-up (18.54%±3.06%, 14.96%±2.33%, and 12.89%±2.33%) were significantly lower than that before operation (34.19%±3.83%), and those at 3 months postoperation and the last follow-up significantly lower than that at 1 month postoperation ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between 3 months postoperation and the last follow-up in NDI ( P>0.05). The JOA scores at 1 and 3 months postoperation, and the last follow-up [(12.28±1.65), (13.30±1.57) and (13.54±1.41) points] were significantly higher than the preoperative value [(9.25±1.49) points] ( P<0.05), but there was no such a significant difference between postoperative time points ( P>0.05). Comparisons between preoperation, 1 and 3 months postoperation, and the last follow-up showed no significant difference in the C2-7 cobb angle or operative ROM ( P>0.05). The modified MacNab scores at the last follow-up resulted in 9 excellent, 5 good and 1 fair cases. Conclusion:In the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy and radiculopathy, the full-endoscopic technique through the posterior cervical Delta large portal shows the advantages of limited invasion and complications, rapid recovery after operation, and little impact on the cervical curvature and segmental stability.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of cell cycle checkpoint kinase 1(Chk1)gene in glioblastoma cells( GBM) and its correlation with GBM cell proliferation,tumorigenic activity and prognosis. Methods The ex-pression of Chk1 in GBM cells was selected and analyzed by TCGA database and brain tumor molecular database( Rembrandt),and the level of Chk1 expression in GBM cells was detected by molecular biology techniques such as Western blot and Real-Time PCR. The expression of Chk1 was silenced by siRNA to investigate its effect on proliferation and colony-forming ability of GBM cells. The prognosis survival of GBM patients accompanying with Chk1 expression was analyzed by immunohistochemical staining and Rembrandt database. Results The results of TCGA database and Rembrandt showed that Chk1 gene was highly expressed in GBM tissues. West-ern blot and Real-Time PCR also showed that Chk1 gene was highly expressed in GBM cells. Lentiviral transfection siRNA-specific silencing of Chk1 significantly inhibited proliferation and colony-forming ability of U87 cells( P<0. 01 and P<0. 05). Prognostic survival analysis showed that GBM patients with low expression of Chk1 gene had a significantly better clinical outcome than those of GBM patients with high expression of Chk1 gene(P<0. 001). Conclusion Chk1 gene is overexpressed in GBM cells,up-regula-tion of Chk1 gene expression can promote the growth and proliferation of GBM cells,and Chk1 gene is associated with poor prognosis in GBM patients.
