Objective To observe the cage subsidence after oblique lateral interbody fusion(OLIF)for lumbar spondylo-sis,summarize the characteristics of the cage subsidence,analyze causes,and propose preventive measures.Methods The data of 144 patients of lumbar spine lesions admitted to our hospital from October 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively ana-lyzed.There were 43 males and 101 females,and the age ranged from 20 to 81 years old,with an average of(60.90±10.06)years old.Disease types:17 patients of lumbar intervertebral disc degenerative disease,12 patients of giant lumbar disc hernia-tion,5 patients of discogenic low back pain,33 patients of lumbar spinal stenosis,26 patients of lumbar degenerative spondy-lolisthesis,28 patients of lumbar spondylolisthesis with spondylolisthesis,11 patients of adjacent vertebral disease after lumbar internal fixation,7 patients of primary spondylitis in the inflammatory outcome stage,and 5 patients of lumbar degenerative scoliosis.Preoperative dual-energy X-ray bone mineral density examination showed 57 patients of osteopenia or osteoporosis,and 87 patients of normal bone density.The number of fusion segments:124 patients of single-segment,11 patients of two-seg-ment,8 patients of three-segment,four-segment 1 patient.There were 40 patients treated by stand-alone OLIF,and 104 patients by OLIF combined with posterior pedicle screw.Observed the occurrence of fusion cage settlement after operation,conducted monofactor analysis on possible risk factors,and observed the influence of fusion cage settlement on clinical results.Results All operations were successfully completed,the median operation time was 99 min,and the median intraoperative blood loss was 106 ml.Intraoperative endplate injury occurred in 30 patients and vertebral fracture occurred in 5 patients.The mean follow-up was(14.57±7.14)months from 6 to 30 months.During the follow-up,except for the patients of primary lumbar interstitial in-flammation and some patients of lumbar spondylolisthesis with spondylolisthesis,the others all had different degrees of cage subsidence.Cage subsidence classification:119 patients were normal subsidence,and 25 patients were abnormal subsidence(23 patients were grade Ⅰ,and 2 patients were grade Ⅱ).There was no loosening or rupture of the pedicle screw system.The height of the intervertebral space recovered from the preoperative average(9.48±1.84)mm to the postoperative average(12.65±2.03)mm,and the average(10.51±1.81)mm at the last follow-up.There were statistical differences between postop-erative and preoperative,and between the last follow-up and postoperative.The interbody fusion rate was 94.4％.The low back pain VAS decreased from the preoperative average(6.55±2.2 9)to the last follow-up(1.40±0.82),and there was statistically significant different.The leg pain VAS decreased from the preoperative average(4.72±1.49)to the final follow-up(0.60± 0.03),and the difference was statistically significant(t=9.13,P＜0.000 1).The ODI index recovered from the preoperative av-erage(38.50±6.98)％to the latest follow-up(11.30±3.27)％,and there was statistically significant different.The complication rate was 31.3％(45/144),and the reoperation rate was 9.72％(14/144).Among them,8 patients were reoperated due to fusion cage subsidence or displacement,accounting for 57.14％(8/14)of reoperation.The fusion cage subsidence in this group had obvious characteristics.The monofactor analysis showed that the number of abnormal subsidence patients in the osteopenia or osteoporosis group,Stand-alone OLIF group,2 or more segments fusion group,and endplate injury group was higher than that in the normal bone mass group,OLIF combined with pedicle screw fixation group,single segment fusion group,and no endplate injury group,and the comparison had statistical differences.Conclusion Cage subsidence is a common phenomenon after 0-LIF surgery.Preoperative osteopenia or osteoporosis,Stand-alone OLIF,2 or more segments of fusion and intraoperative end-plate injury may be important factors for postoperative fusion cage subsidence.Although there is no significant correlation be-tween the degree of cage subsidence and clinical symptoms,there is a risk of cage migration,and prevention needs to be strengthened to reduce serious complications caused by fusion of cage subsidence,including reoperation.

Objective To explore the effect of task-oriented training of intelligent mirror gloves combined with low-frequency repeti-tive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)on hand function recovery in stroke patients. Methods From October 1st,2022 to June 30th,2023,136 stroke patients in Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital were ran-domly divided into control group,mirror group,rTMS group and combination group,with 34 patients in each group.All the groups received routine rehabilitation treatment.In addition,the mirror group received task-orient-ed training of intelligent mirror gloves,rTMS group received low-frequency rTMS,and the combination group received task-oriented training combined with low-frequency rTMS,for four weeks.The Fugl-Meyer Assess-ment-Upper Extremities(FMA-UE)score,Wolf Motor Function Test(WMFT)score,and surface electromyo-graphic root mean square(RMS)of forearm extensor and flexor muscle groups on the affected/healthy side be-fore and after treatment were compared.And the differences of transcranial magnetic stimulation-motor-evoked potentials(MEP)between rTMS group and combination group before and after treatment were also compared. Results Four cases in the control group,seven in the mirror group,five in rTMS group and six in the combination group dropped off.The intra-group effect(F>996.656,P<0.001),inter-group effect(F>20.333,P<0.001)and inter-action effect(F>72.796,P<0.001)were significant in the scores of FMA-UE and WMFT,and the RMS ratio of forearm extensor and flexor muscle groups among four groups,in which the combination group was the best.After treatment,the amplitude of MEP increased in rTMS group and combination group(|t|>3.842,P<0.05),and was higher in the combination group than in rTMS group(t=-3.060,P<0.01). Conclusion The task-oriented training of intelligent mirror gloves combined with low-frequency rTMS could effectively promote the recovery of hand function in stroke patients.

Objective Cognitive impairment(CI)in older individuals has a high morbidity rate worldwide,with poor diagnostic methods and susceptible population identification.This study aimed to investigate the relationship between different retinal metrics and CI in a particular population,emphasizing polyvascular status. Methods We collected information from the Asymptomatic Polyvascular Abnormalities Community Study on retinal vessel calibers,retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL)thickness,and cognitive function of 3,785 participants,aged 40 years or older.Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between retinal metrics and cognitive function.Subgroups stratified by different vascular statuses were also analyzed. Results RNFL thickness was significantly thinner in the CI group(odds ratio:0.973,95%confidence interval:0.953-0.994).In the subgroup analysis,the difference still existed in the non-intracranial arterial stenosis,non-extracranial carotid arterial stenosis,and peripheral arterial disease subgroups(P<0.05). Conclusion A thin RNFL is associated with CI,especially in people with non-large vessel stenosis.The underlying small vessel change in RNFL and CI should be investigated in the future.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

The treatment of acute patellar dislocation remains a topic of debate among orthopedic surgeons.While con-servative treatment has traditionally been favored,recent studies have highlighted the high redislocation rate,prompting a reevaluation of treatment strategies.Current approaches recognize the importance of addressing not only the knee joint but also associated factors contributing to instability.Surgical intervention,particularly focusing on restoring patellar stability through medial patella-femoral ligament(MPFL),repair or reconstruction,has gained popularity.MPFL reconstruction can provide long-term stability of the patella,but further research is needed.When acute patellar dislocation is associated with abnormal bony factors,multiple surgical modalities are often required,with the goal of restoring the normal trajectory of the patella,main-taining the stability of the patellofemoral joint,and optimizing knee joint function.This review provides an overview of advances in the treatment of acute patellar dislocation and related problems,so as to provide reference for clinicians.

Objective To summarize the reasons and management strategies of reoperation after oblique lateral interbody fusion(OLIF),and put forward preventive measures.Methods From October 2015 to December 2019,23 patients who under-went reoperation after OLIF in four spine surgery centers were retrospectively analyzed.There were 9 males and 14 females with an average age of(61.89±8.80)years old ranging from 44 to 81 years old.The index diagnosis was degenerative lumbar intervertebral dics diseases in 3 cases,discogenie low back pain in 1 case,degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis in 6 cases,lumbar spinal stenosis in 9 cases and degenerative lumbar spinal kyphoscoliosis in 4 cases.Sixteen patients were primarily treated with Stand-alone OLIF procedures and 7 cases were primarily treated with OLIF combined with posterior pedicle screw fixation.There were 17 cases of single fusion segment,2 of 2 fusion segments,4 of 3 fusion segments.All the cases underwent reoperation within 3 months after the initial surgery.The strategies of reoperation included supplementary posterior pedicle screw instrumentation in 16 cases;posterior laminectomy,cage adjustment and neurolysis in 2 cases,arthroplasty and neuroly-sis under endoscope in 1 case,posterior laminectomy and neurolysis in 1 case,pedicle screw adjustment in 1 case,exploration and decompression under percutaneous endoscopic in 1 case,interbody fusion cage and pedicle screw revision in 1 case.Visu-al analogue scale(VAS)and Oswestry disability index(ODI)index were used to evaluate and compare the recovery of low back pain and lumbar function before reoperation and at the last follow-up.During the follow-up process,the phenomenon of fusion cage settlement or re-displacement,as well as the condition of intervertebral fusion,were observed.The changes in in-tervertebral space height before the first operation,after the first operation,before the second operation,3 to 5 days after the second operation,6 months after the second operation,and at the latest follow-up were measured and compared.Results There was no skin necrosis and infection.All patients were followed up from 12 to 48 months with an average of(28.1±7.3)months.Nerve root injury symptoms were relieved within 3 to 6 months.No cage transverse shifting and no dislodgement,loosening or breakage of the instrumentation was observed in any patient during the follow-up period.Though the intervertebral disc height was obviously increased at the first postoperative,there was a rapid loss in the early stage,and still partially lost after reopera-tion.The VAS for back pain recovered from(6.20±1.69)points preoperatively to(1.60±0.71)points postoperatively(P＜0.05).The ODI recovered from(40.60±7.01)％preoperatively to(9.14±2.66)％postoperatively(P＜0.05).Conclusion There is a risk of reoperation due to failure after OLIF surgery.The reasons for reoperation include preoperative bone loss or osteoporosis the initial surgery was performed by Stand-alone,intraoperative endplate injury,significant subsidence of the fusion cage after surgery,postoperative fusion cage displacement,nerve damage,etc.As long as it is discovered in a timely manner and handled properly,further surgery after OLIF surgery can achieve better clinical results,but prevention still needs to be strengthened.

Objective To compare the incidence of superior facet joint violation in patients with different preoperative diagnoses in posterior lumbar interbody fusion.Methods The clinical data of 320 patients who underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion from January 2018 to December 2021 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed,and the preoperative diagnoses were including the lumbar disc herniation/lumbar spinal canal stenosis,degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis,and isthmic lumbar spondylolisthesis.The superior facet joint violation was graded based on the postoperative lumbar CT,the incidences of superior facet joint intrusion of patients with different preoperative diagnosis were compared,and the correlations between relevant parameters(including the apical vertebrae of fixation segments,facet joint angle,depth of lamina,introversion angle of pedicle screw,axial diameter of facet joint,and slippage length of vertebrae)with superior facet joint violation and preoperative diagnoses were investigated.Results The incidence of superior facet joint violation in the patients with isthmic lumbar spondylolisthesis(57.4%)was higher than that in the patients with lumbar disc herniation/lumbar spinal canal stenosis(41.2%)and degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis(35.9%),with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The apical vertebrae of fixation segments,facet joint angle,axial diameter of facet joint and introversion angle of pedicle screw were related with the occurrence of superior facet joint violation(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the facet joint angle,axial diameter of facet joint and apical vertebrae of fixation segments among patients with different preoperative diagnoses(P<0.05).Conclusion Patients with isthmiclumbar spondylolisthesis are more likely to occur superior facet joint violation than patients with lumbar disc herniation/lumbar spinal canal stenosis and degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy,safety,and economy of 4 intravenous iron formulations in the treatment of iron deficiency anemia(IDA)by rapid health technology assessment,and to provide evidence for clinical decision-making.Methods PubMed,Embase,the Cochrane Library,CNKI,WanFang,SinoMed,and official websites of international health technology assessment agencies were electronically searched to collect health technology assessment reports,systematic reviews/Meta-analysis,and pharmacoeconomic studies concerning the treatment of IDA with iron sucrose(IS),iron dextran(ID),ferric carboxymaltose(FCM),and iron isomaltoside(IIM)from the inception to August 15,2024.Two researchers independently screened the studies,extracted data and assessed the quality of included studies.The results were then qualitatively described and analyzed.Results A total of 32 studies were included,including one health technology assessment report,16 systematic reviews/Meta-analysis,and 15 pharmacoeconomic evaluations.In terms of effectiveness,FCM had a higher response rate than that of IS(P＜0.05),FCM and IIM had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).Regarding hemoglobin level change,patients treated with FCM had higher hemoglobin levels than those treated with IS(P＜0.05);the improvement in hemoglobin levels between IIM and FCM was inconclusive.In terms of ferritin level change,FCM might be superior to the other three intravenous iron formulations.In terms of safety,the adverse event rates for FCM,IS,ID and IIM were 12.0％,15.3％,12.0％and 17.0％,respectively;IIM was significantly associated with a lower rate of cardiovascular adverse events compared to FCM and IS(P＜0.05);FCM had the highest rate of hypophosphatemia among the four formulations(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference among IIM,IS and ID(P＞0.05);IIM had a lower risk of severe or serious hypersensitivity reactions compared to FCM and IS.In terms of economy,FCM and IIM had an economic advantage compared to IS.The economic efficiency ranking among IS,ID,and FCM was in the order of FCM,ID,and IS,the economic comparison between FCM and IIM remains inconclusive and needs to be further demonstrated.Conclusion FCM and IIM have good efficacy,safety and economy in the treatment of IDA,but most of the included economy studies based on foreign populations,and domestic economic studies need to be further demonstrated.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia(T-ALL)in children and explore the prognostic risk factors.Methods:The clinical data of 127 newly diagnosed children with T-ALL admitted to five hospitals in Fujian province from April 2011 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed,and compared with children with newly diagnosed acute precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL)in the same period.Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the overall survival(OS)and event-free survival(EFS),and COX proportional hazard regression model was used to evaluate the prognostic factors.Among 116 children with T-ALL who received standard treatment,78 cases received the Chinese Childhood Leukemia Collaborative Group(CCLG)-ALL 2008 protocol(CCLG-ALL 2008 group),and 38 cases received the China Childhood Cancer Collaborative Group(CCCG)-ALL 2015 protocol(CCCG-ALL 2015 group).The efficacy and serious adverse event(SAE)incidence of the two groups were compared.Results:Proportion of male,age ≥ 10 years old,white blood cell count(WBC)≥ 50 × 109/L,central nervous system leukemia,minimal residual disease(MRD)≥ 1％during induction therapy,and MRD ≥ 0.01％at the end of induction in T-ALL children were significantly higher than those in B-ALL children(P＜0.05).The expected 10-year EFS and OS of T-ALL were 59.7％and 66.0％,respectively,which were significantly lower than those of B-ALL(P＜0.001).COX analysis showed that WBC ≥ 100 x 109/L at initial diagnosis and failure to achieve complete remission(CR)after induction were independent risk factors for poor prognosis.Compared with CCLG-ALL 2008 group,CCCG-ALL 2015 group had lower incidence of infection-related SAE(15.8％vs 34.6％,P=0.042),but higher EFS and OS(73.9％vs 57.2％,PEFS=0.090;86.5％vs 62.3％,PoS=0.023).Conclusions:The prognosis of children with T-ALL is worse than children with B-ALL.WBC ≥ 100 × 109/L at initial diagnosis and non-CR after induction(especially mediastinal mass has not disappeared)are the risk factors for poor prognosis.CCCG-ALL 2015 regimen may reduce infection-related SAE and improve efficacy.

Objective:To investigate possible mechanism on protien LMP1 expressed by EBV inducing plasmablast differentiation of DLBCL cell via the mTORC1 pathway.Methods:The expression levels of LMP1 protein,CD38 and the phosphorylation levels of p70S6K in EBV+and EBV-DLBCL cell lines were detected by Western blot.Cell lines overexpressing LMP1 gene stablely were constructed and LMP1 gene was silenced by RNAi.The expression of LMP1 gene was verified by RT-qPCR.The expression levels of LMP1 and CD38 and the phosphorylation levels of p70S6K in each group were detected by Western blot.Results:Compared with EBV-DLBCL cells,the expression of LMP1 was detected on EBV+DLBCL cells(P=0.0008),EBV+DLBCL cells had higher phosphorylation levels of p70S6K(P=0.0072)and expression levels of CD38(P=0.0091).Compared with vector group,the cells of LMP1OE group had higher expression levels of LMP1 and CD38(P=0.0353;P＜0.0001),meanwhile molecular p70S6K was phosphorylated much more(P=0.0065);expression of LMP1 mRNA was verified(P＜0.0001).Compared with si-NC group,expression level of LMP1 protein(P=0.0129)was not detected and phosphorylated p70S6K disappeared of LMP1KO group(P=0.0228);meanwhile,expression of CD38 decreased,although there was no significant difference(P=0.2377).Conclusion:LMP1 promotes DLBCL cells plasmablast differentiation via activating mTORC1 signal pathway.
