Objective:To investigate the clinical curative effect of hyperbaric oxygen(HBO)combined with total arthroscopy in the treatment of popliteal cyst.Methods:From June 2015 to January 2020,the clinical data of 85 patients with popliteal cyst who received total arthroscopic minimally invasive surgery in Department of Orthopedics,Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine and Department of Adult Orthopedics,Xinhua Hospital Chongming Branch were collected. According to different treatments,patients were divided into observation group( n=45)and control group( n=40). The control group received total arthroscopic minimally invasive surgery while the observation group was additionally treated by hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to evaluate the pain during the 72 hours after operation. Postoperative ambulation time and length of hospital stay were also recorded. Lysholm scoring system was used to evaluate knee function. The therapeutic efficacy was assessed by Rauschning-Lindgren grading. All the patients were followed up for one year to record the recurrence of cysts. Results:After treatment,the postoperative ambulation time and length of hospital stay of the observation group were obviously reduced compared with those of the control group,and its VAS score was lower than that of the control group,with significant statistical differences( P<0.05). The Lysholm scores of the two groups seven days after treatment were significantly higher than that before treatment,and the Lysholm score of the observation group markedly was higher than that of the control group after treatment,with significant statistical difference( P<0.05). After treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group(93.3%)was remarkably higher than that of the control group(77.5%),with significant statistical difference( P<0.05). The recurrence rate of popliteal cyst in the observation group(6.7%)was significant different from that in the control group(17.5%)( P<0.05). Conclusion:HBO combined with total arthroscopic minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of popliteal cyst has the advantages of small incision,light pain,rapid recovery,which can quickly restore the function of knee joint with low recurrence rate and significant curative effect.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of minimally invasive surgery combined with hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment for moderate to severe carpal tunnel syndrome.Methods:The clinical data of 86 patients with moderate to severe carpal tunnel syndrome admitted to the Department of Adult Orthopedics of Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine and the Orthopedics Department of the Chongming Branch of Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from March 2016 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the treatment method, they were divided into observation group ( n=42) and control group ( n=44). The control group was treated with modified Okutsu method of endoscopic carpal tunnel release (ECTR), and the observation group was given hyperbaric oxygen on the basis of the treatment in the control group. The clinical efficacy of the two groups three months after operation was assessed by using carpal tunnel syndrome evaluation criteria, and their excellent and good recovery rates were compared. The median nerve sensory conduction velocity (SCV), motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV), sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) amplitude, and motor nerve distal motor latency (DML) of the two groups were measured by electromyography before operation, and 14 d, 30 d, and 90 d after operation. The disabilities of arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) questionnaire was used to evaluate the upper-extremity function of the two groups before operation, and 14 d, 30 d, and 90 d after operation, and the pinch strength and grip strength of the two groups before operation, and 14 d, 30 d and 90 d after operation were measured by Jamar Pinch Gauge and Jamar Hand Dynamometer. Results:After three months of follow-up, the excellent and good recovery rate of the observation group (85.71%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (70.45%), with a significant statistical difference ( P<0.05). The DASH scores of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group at 14 d, 30 d, and 90 d after operation ( P<0.05). The SCV and MCV of the observation group were significantly faster than those of the control group at 14 d, 30 d, and 90 d after operation ( P<0.05). The DMLs of the observation group were significantly shorter than those of the control group at 14 d, 30 d, and 90 d after operation, while the SNAPs were significantly bigger than those of the control group ( P<0.05). The grip strength and pinch strength of the observation group were significantly stronger than those of the control group at 14 d, 30 d, and 90 d after operation ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Modified Okutsu method of ECTR combined with postoperative hyperbaric oxygen treatment can improve the clinical excellent and good recovery rate of carpal tunnel syndrome, which can enhance the electrophysiological function of their median nerves, and their daily functioning, to provide reference for treating chronic injuries caused by carpal tunnel syndrome and other peripheral nerve entrapment syndromes.

BACKGROUND:Fracture healing in diabetic patients is usual y unsatisfactory because of hormones and metabolic disorder, and an eventual multiple organ dysfunction resulting from high blood glucose. OBJECTIVE:To dynamical y observe the changes of cytokines during the fracture healing process in diabetic rats before and after insulin treatment. METHODS:A total of 120 Sprague-Dawley rats were included in this study. Of them, 90 rats intravenously injected with 5%tetraoxypyrimidine to induce rat models of diabetes were randomized into insulin treatment and diabetes groups, respectively. The remaining 30 rats were intravenously injected with equal volume of saline and selected as control group. The next day, blood glucose was determined. Healing at 1, 4, and 8 weeks after fracture were observed by the X-ray film. Biomechanical strength of the injured right tibia was measured at 4, 6, and 8 weeks after modeling. Cytokines in the osteotylus were determined by immunohistochemical staining and in situ hybridization technique. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The X-ray films showed that the speed of fracture healing in the diabetes group was slower than insulin treatment and control groups. Biomechanical strength of the osteotylus in the diabetes group was significantly decreased compared with the insulin treatment and control groups. However, there were no significant differences in above-mentioned parameters between the control and insulin treatment groups. Bone morphogenetic protein 2, basic fibroblast growth factor, transforming growth factor-beta, and vascular endothelial growth factor were widely expressed in the osteotylus and their expressions in diabetes group were significantly lower and slower than those in the control and insulin treatment groups. There was no statistical difference between control and insulin treatment groups. These results indicate that osteotylus formation speed, biomechanical strength, and growth factor expressions at the fracture site in diabetes rats were decreased compared with normal rats. Insulin treatment can enhance cytokine levels at the fracture site, thereby promoting the osteoblast proliferation and fracture healing.
