ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To establish the finite element model of varus-type ankle arthritis and to implement the finite element mechanical analysis of different correction models for tibial anterior surface angle (TAS) in supramalleolar osteotomy.@*METHODS@#A female patient with left varus-type ankle arthritis (Takakura stage Ⅱ, TAS 78°) was taken as the study object. Based on the CT data, the three-dimensional model of varus-type ankle arthritis (TAS 78°) and different TAS correction models [normal (TAS 89°), 5° valgus (TAS 94°), and 10° valgus (TAS 99°)] were created by software Mimics 21.0, Geomagic Wrap 2021, Solidworks 2017, and Workbench 17.0. The 290 N vertical downward force was applied to the upper surface of the tibia and 60 N vertical downward force to the upper surface of the fibula. Von Mises stress distribution and stress peak were calculated.@*RESULTS@#The finite element model of normal TAS was basically consistent with biomechanics of the foot. According to biomechanical analysis, the maximum stress of the varus model appeared in the medial tibiotalar joint surface and the medial part of the top tibiotalar joint surface. The stress distribution of talofibular joint surface and the lateral part of the top tibiotalar joint surface were uniform. In the normal model, the stress distributions of the talofibular joint surface and the tibiotalar joint surface were uniform, and no obvious stress concentration was observed. The maximum stress in the 5° valgus model appeared at the posterior part of the talofibular joint surface and the lateral part of the top tibiotalar joint surface. The stress distribution of medial tibiotalar joint surface was uniform. The maximum stress of the 10° valgus model appeared at the posterior part of the talofibular joint surface and the lateral part of the top tibiotalar joint surface. The stress on the medial tibiotalar joint surface increased.@*CONCLUSION@#With the increase of valgus, the stress of ankle joint gradually shift outwards, and the stress concentration tends to appear. There was no obvious obstruction of fibula with 10° TAS correction. However, when TAS correction exceeds 10° and continues to increase, the obstruction effect of fibula becomes increasingly significant.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the value of multiparametric ultrasonography consisting of gray-scale ultrasound(US), color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI), real-time strain elastography(RTE), and contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in the differential diagnosis of testicular lesions.Methods:Forty patients (40 lesions) detected by ultrasonography examination at the Ultrasound Medical Center of Lanzhou University Second Hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, and further the CDFI, CEUS and RTE were performed. The presence of vascularization in the lesion was determined by CDFI and CEUS, avascular lesions were defined as benign, vascularization lesions were defined as malignant. The lesion tissue elasticity was assessed by real-time strain elastography, tissue stiffness was encoded as red(soft), green(intermediate), and blue(hard), and the hard lesions were defined as malignant, soft lesions were defined as benign. All lesions were subjected to pathological histologic examination after surgical resection or puncture biopsy as a reference standard. The correct classification rate, sensitivity, specificity and likelihood ratio of the multiparametric ultrasonography imaging for the diagnosis of benign and malignant testicular lesions were analyzed by ROC.Results:Of 40 testicular lesions, 24 (60.0%) were benign and 16 (40.0%) were malignant. The sensitivity of CDFI, CEUS and RTE in the diagnosis of testicular lesions was 0.875, 1.000 and 1.000, and the specificity was 0.833, 0.750 and 0.708, respectively. The correct classification rate was 85.0%, 85.0% and 82.5%, and the positive likelihood ratio was 5.24, 4.00 and 4.42, respectively. AUC was 0.781, 0.802, 0.771, respectively. By combining RTE and CDFI, a sensitivity of 1.000 and specificity of 0.875 and correct classification rate of 92.8% and positive likelihood ratio of 8.00 and AUC of 0.915 ( P<0.001) were achieved in differentiating testicular lesions. And combining RTE and CEUS, achieved sensitivity of 1.000 and specificity of 0.917 and correct classification rate of 95.0% and positive likelihood ratio of 12.0 and AUC of 0.958( P<0.001). Conclusions:Multiparametric US is of great value in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant testicular lesions.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the incidence, clinical significance and influencing factors on in-stent stenosis(ISS) after treatment of intracranial aneurysms by Pipeline embolization device(PED).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 161 patients with intracranial aneurysms treated with PED at the Department of Interventional Radiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April 2015 to July 2021. PED was implanted into the parent artery through the femoral artery approach after general anesthesia. The first DSA follow-up duration time and imaging data were collected, and the patients were divided into ISS group and non-ISS group accordingly. The degree of aneurysm occlusion was evaluated by O′Kelly-Marotta(OKM) grading scale. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were applied to identify the factors related to ISS.Results:A total of 179 PED were employed in 161 patients with 168 aneurysms. Eighty-eight (52.38%) aneurysms were treated by PED only, and 80 (47.62%) aneurysms by PED combined with coiling. After a median follow-up of 6 (5, 7) months, 31(18.45%) aneurysms had ISS within the PED, of which 16(9.52%) cases were with mild stenosis (<50%), 13 (7.74%) were with moderate stenosis (50%-75%), and 2(1.19%) were with severe stenosis (>75%). All patients with ISS showed no relevant clinical symptoms. One (0.60%) patient with ISS underwent balloon angioplasty. Univariate analysis showed that the stent diameter, aneurysm location, triglyceride level, the diameter of distal parent artery, and the diameter of proximal parent artery were associated to ISS. Further multivariate logistic regression analysis showed the stent diameter (OR=0.332, 95%CI 0.191-0.578, P<0.001) and triglyceride level (OR=1.641, 95%CI 1.034-2.605, P=0.036) were independent factors of ISS. Conclusions:ISS is a common benign complication after PED treatment. The current results suggest that small stent diameter and high triglyceride level are independent factors of ISS.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To propose a new classification of posterior malleolus fracture to further clarify its pathoanatomy.Methods:Twenty fresh frozen cadaver specimens of normal morphology of lower limbs were selected and dissected and the extent of the tibial insertion of posterior malleolus associated ligaments was measured. At the same time, a retrospective case series analysis was made on the clinical and CT information of 296 patients with posterior malleolus fracture treated at Tongji Hospital of Tongji University from January 2012 to July 2020 or at Karamay Central Hospital from January 2018 to July 2020. The percentage of articular involvement of the fracture, proximal displacement of the posterior malleolus fracture and extent of posterior talar subluxation were measured. A clinically practical new classification system for posterior malleolus fracture was created by correlating posterior malleolus associated ligaments with CT images of posterior malleolus fracture. The new classification included three types: type I was posterior malleolus fracture with only the tibial insertion of inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament involved; type II was posterior malleolus fracture with both the tibial insertions of inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament and posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament involved, which was divided into subtypes IIA and IIB based on the presence of articular cartilage and subchondral bone damage, compression or Die-Punch fragments; type III was posterior malleolus fracture that involved all the tibial insertions of inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament, posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament and posterior tibiotalar ligament, which was sub-classified into subtypes III A and III B according to number of fracture fragments. Anatomic characteristics of the extent of the tibial insertion of posterior malleolus associated ligament, CT imaging parameters for posterior malleolus fracture and corresponding fracture typing were determined. In addition, the new classification system for posterior malleolus fracture was compared with Haraguci classification and Mason classification.Results:Posterior malleolus associated ligaments included the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament and posterior tibiotalar ligament from posterolateral to posteromedial tibia. The posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament was attached to the posterolateral tibia and the distance between the highest point of its tibial insertion and the joint line was (45.2±5.6)mm. The inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament was attached to the posterior distal tibia and the distance between the highest point of its tibial insertion and the joint line was (5.5±1.0)mm. The posterior tibiotalar ligament was attached to the posterior colliculus and intercollicular groove of the medial malleolus and the distance between the center of its tibial insertion and the intercollicular groove was (2.5±0.6)mm. Among 296 patients with posterior malleolus fracture, there were 36 patients with type I, 229 with type II (150 type IIA, 79 type IIB) and 31 with type III (11 type IIIA, 20 type IIIB). The percentage of articular involvement of the fracture, proximal displacement of posterior malleolus fracture and extent of posterior talar subluxation in type IIB fracture were significantly greater than those in type II A fracture [23.7(18.6, 28.8)% vs. 18.4(12.7, 21.7)%, 4.1(2.1, 6.0)mm vs. 1.9(0.2, 3.0)mm, 4.7(1.5, 6.2)mm vs. 2.3(1.1, 3.0)mm] (all P<0.01). The proximal displacement of posterior malleolus fracture and extent of posterior talar subluxation in type III fracture were significantly greater than those in type II fracture [7.2(6.0, 8.2)mm vs. 2.7(0.4, 4.0)mm, 10.1(6.0, 15.0)mm vs. 3.1(1.1, 5.0)mm] (all P<0.01). The new classification for posterior malleolus fracture combined the posterior malleolus ligament and injury mechanism of posterior malleolus fracture as compared with Haraguchi classification, which not only further detailed the classification, but also was more practical in clinic for increased the severity of injury was elevated with higher classification level. The new classification was more comprehensive as compared with Mason classification for it mainly added the type of simple-rotation-type posterior malleolus fracture (type IIA of the new classification). Conclusions:In combination with posterior malleolus associated ligaments, injury mechanism and fracture morphology, posterior malleolus fracture is divided into three types. The new classification system more comprehensively describes pathoanatomy of posterior malleolus fracture that contributes to related basic research and clinical diagnosis and treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the posterior malleolus fracture and fixation and the rotational stability of the ankle and to explore the surgical indications for posterior malleolus fracture aiming to provide the theories for the diagnosis and treatment of disorder.Methods:Twenty fresh frozen cadaver specimens were selected. Further, the extent of the tibial insertion of the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (PITFL) and inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament (ITTFL) complex was dissected and measured. Based on the tibial insertion of the ligament complex, the model for the supination-external rotation degree 3 ankle fracture with a posterior malleolar fragment and syndesmosis diastasis was created. Moreover, the area threshold of the posterior tibial insertion of posterior malleolus fracture was biomechanically assessed. The difference of the antirotating ability of the ankle-stiffness between simple posterior malleolus fixation and simple syndesmotic fixation was analyzed statistically.Results:The PITFL and ITTFL were presented in all specimens with relatively broad in PITFL tibial insertion. The PITFL was attached to the posterolateral tibia. The distance between the highest point of the tibial insertion and the articular line was 45.2±5.6 mm, while the ITTFL was attached to the posterior distal tibia. The distance between the highest point of the tibial insertion and the articular line was 5.5±1.0 mm. The width of the tibial insertion of the PITFL and ITTFL complex decreased as the distance from the joint line increased. Biomechanical analysis showed that the threshold of posterior area of posterior malleolus fracture was 1/4S. The stiffnesses of posterior malleolus fixation and syndesmosis stabilization were 0.264±0.080 N·m/° and 0.164 ± 0.061 N·m/°, respectively. The percentage of stiffness restored by posterior ankle fixation was 60.9%±10.2%, which was greater than that by syndesmosis stabilization 37.5%±7.9% ( t=17.09, P<0.001) . Conclusion:The surgical technique for posterior malleolus fracture should consider restoration of the axial and rotational stability of the ankle simultaneously. Posterior malleolus fracture fixation is recommended when the syndesmosis is unstable with the area ratio of posterior tibial insertion of posterior malleolus fracture greater than or equal to 1/4. Syndesmotic fixation is proposed to restore and maintain the rotational stability of the ankle when the syndesmosis is unstable with the area ratio less than 1/4. Regardless of the area ratio, the surgical indications for stable syndesmosis depend on the impact of the posterior malleolus fracture on the axial stability of tibiotalar joint, on the involved articular surface area and on the displacement degree of posterior malleolus fragment.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To analyze the role of mitochondrial autophagy and NLRP3 mediated inflammatory response in stroke rehabilitation.Methods Male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups:sham operation group (sham),sham+rapamycin (rapa) group,6 hours after reperfusion (i/r 6 h),i/r 6 h+Rapa group,24 hours after reperfusion (i/r 24 h) and i/r 24 h+Rapa group.A transient middle cerebral artery occlusion model was established to stimulate ischemia/reperfusion (i/r) injury in rats.The expression of caspase-1 positive cells in different types of neurons in ischemic core cortex was analyzed.The expression of NLRP3 and mitochondrial membrane potential were measured in BV2 cells under hypoxia glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (ogd/r).Results At 6 h after i/r injury,cleaved caspase-1 was mainly expressed in microglia (88.4±1.1)% and neurons (63.4±2.2)% at 24 h.After ogd/r,the transformation from lc3-Ⅰ to lc3-Ⅱ in BV2 cells decreased with time.BV2 cells showed a percentage of low membrane potential 24 hours after exposure to ogd/r.Compared with ogd/r group,Rapa could rescue mitochondrial damage (P<0.05),and Rapa could inhibit NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and cleaved IL-1 in BV2 cells induced by ogd/r β.The expression level was up-regulated (P<0.05).In the i/r+rapa group,the expression of cleaved caspase-1 in microglia [(12.7±1.8)% vs (70.0±2.0)%] and neurons [(11.9±1.9)% vs (70.8±1.7)%] was significantly lower than that in the i/r group at 6 or 24 hours after brain i/r injury (P<0.001).Conclusion Down regulation of mitochondrial autophagy is essential for the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes in microglia,and an autophagy inducer can effectively alleviate the NLRP3 inflammasome response in microglia,and neurons after OGD/R and cerebral I/R injury.

ABSTRACT

Supramalleolar osteotomy is an important joint-preserving operation in the treatment of varus ankle osteoarthritis, but there are still many controversies in operating procedures. Soft tissue procedure is coming into focus except the bone procedures. The balance of the medial triangular ligament, lateral collateral ligament and Achilles tendon is very important to maintain the stability of the ankle joint. This paper expatiates on this problem in detail, so as to provide a reference for the successful procedure of supramalleolar osteotomy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the clinical results of reduction and fixation via fibular osteotomy for treatment of old ankle fractures involving the posterior malleolus in middle-aged and elderly patients.Methods:A retrospective case series study was made for 13 middle-aged and elderly patients with old ankle fractures involving the posterior malleolus treated from July 2013 to March 2018 in Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University. There were 2 males and 11 females, with age of 48-63 years (mean, 54.8 years). The mean surgical period was 8-18 weeks from injury (mean, 9.6 weeks). According to Haraguchi classification, all posterior malleolar fractures were type I. According to Lauge-Hansen classification, there were 2 patients with pronation-external rotation type and 11 with supination-external rotation type. All patients underwent open reduction and fixation via fibular osteotomy. Bone healing time and postoperative complications were recorded. Clinical results were assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS) score and American orthopedic foot and ankle society (AOFAS) ankle-hind score.Results:All patients were followed up for average 20.3 months (range, 9-36 months). All patients had bone union, with the mean healing period of 12-15 weeks (average 14.8 weeks). No infection, implant loosening or breakage occurred after operation. X-ray film of one patient suggested mild traumatic arthritis. At the latest follow-up, VAS was improved to (1.0±0.2)points compared to pre-operative (5.3±0.6)points ( P<0.05), and the AOFAS ankle-hind score was improved to (85.2±7.4)points compared to pre-operative (42.4±6.7)points ( P<0.05). According to the AOFAS ankle-hind score, the results were excellent in 4 patients, good in 8, moderate in 1, with the excellent and good rate of 92%. Conclusion:For old ankle fractures involving the posterior malleolus in the middle-aged and elderly patients, reduction and fixation via fibular can reduce postoperative complications, facilitate bone healing, relieve ankle pain and improve function recovery.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To compare instrumentation with 3D-printed patient-specific guides versus conventional techniques in supramalleolar osteotomy for varus ankle osteoarthritis.@*Methods@#A retrospective analysis was done of the 21 patients with varus ankle osteoarthritis who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedics, Shanghai JiaoTong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018. They were divided into 2 groups by their treatment methods. In the 9 patients treated by instrumentation with 3D-printed patient-specific guides, there were 6 males and 3 females with an age of 54.6±8.6 years, 4 left and 5 right sides involved, and one case of Takakura stage 1, 3 cases of Takakura stage 2 and 5 cases of Takakura stage 3a. In the 12 patients treated by conventional techniques, there were 7 males and 5 females with an age of 53.0±6.5 years, 7 left and 5 right sides involved, and one case of Takakura stage 1, 5 cases of Takakura stage 2 and 6 cases of Takakura stage 3a. The 3D printed guide group and the conventional group were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss and frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, tibial anterior surface angle (TAS), talar tilt angle (TT), and tibial lateral surface angle (TLS). The differences in TAS, TT and TLS between pre- and post-operation in the 3D printed guide group were also evaluated.@*Results@#There were no significant differences in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups (P>0.05), indicating they were comparable. All the patients were available for follow-up for an average of 7.8 months (from 3 to 15 months). The 3D printed guide group incurred significantly shorter operation time (106.2±10.6 min), less intraoperative blood loss (207.2±16.0 mL) and lower fluoroscopy frequency (2±0) than the conventional osteotomy group (all P<0.01). The post-operative TAS (94.3°±3.2°) and TT (3.8°±0.8°) angles in the 3D guide group were significantly different from their preoperative values (84.6°±3.5° and 7.6°±1.6°) (P<0.01). The 3D printed guide group was not significantly different from the conventional group in postoperative TAS (94.3°±3.2° versus 92.4°±5.9°), TT (3.8°±0.8° versus 4.2°±1.1°) or TLS (83.7°±3.4° versus 84.2°±2.2°) angles (P>0.05).@*Conclusions@#Compared with conventional techniques, instrumentation with 3D-printed patient-specific guides can shorten operation time and reduce intraoperative blood loss and fluoroscopy frequency. The 3D printed patient-specific guides in osteotomy can facilitate accurate correction of varus deformity, leading to similar efficacy compared with conventional osteotomy.

ABSTRACT

The calcaneus is the most commonly fractured tarsal bone,calcaneal fracture comprises 2% of all fractures,the primary mechanism of injury involves a high energy axial load.To get a better outcome,the literature review recommends the use of Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) for this kind of injury.Sustentaculum tali is a triangular projection from the medial surface of the calcaneus,it possesses strong trabecular structure and thick cortex,and it's thought to remain tightly bound to the talus by ligaments and muscle tendons nearby,that's why it's often used as a constant fragment to which other fracture fragments are reduced to restore congruity of the subtalar joint.Hence,it's important to understand the anatomic features of sustentaculum tali.In this article,we describes the anatomic measurements of the sustentaculum tali including the size,angle and soft tissue nearby,and described the correlation between these anatomic features and intra-articular calcaneal fractures.We are hoping that we can provide theoretical reference to the clinical treatment of calcaneal fractures.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the efficacy of gastric pull-up and complex laryngotracheal flap in reconstruction for circumferencial defects after resection of hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal cancers.@*Methods@#A total of 163 cases (152 males, 11 females) with circumferencial defect after resection of hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal cancers received reconstructive surgeries by gastric pull-up (42 cases) and complex laryngo-tracheal flaps (121 cases), of them 115 cases simultaneously underwent unilateral neck dissection and 20 cases had bilateral neck dissection. Postoperative radiotherapy was used in 67 cases, with a dosage of 40-60 Gy.@*Results@#There were 127 (77.9%) cases with positive metastatic lymph nodes. Of 42 patients with gastric pull-up reconstruction, 39 cases (92.8%) recovered the function of oral swallowing after operation, and 8 cases with cervical esophageal cancer recovered the functions of oral swallowing and speech after gastroesophageal anastomosis reconstruction. There were 3 (7.1%) cases died of surgery and 8 cases with surgical complications. Reconstruction of upper digestive tract with combined laryngotracheal flap was successful in all 121 cases, with recovered oral swallowing function after operation. No patient died of surgery but 24 cases had complications, mainly pharynx skin fistula or wound infection, which were cured by conservative treatments. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates for 163 patients were 69.8%, 50.5% and 34.3%, respectively. The independent factors for prognosis included T4 (P<0.001) and N+ (P=0.042).@*Conclusions@#The complex of laryngotracheal flap with pectoralis major myocutaneous flap is suitable for most advanced hypopharyngeal cancer after resection of the tumor and reconstruction of circumferencial defect. It is simple technology, low and slight complication rate. The minority is not suitable for the application of pectoralis major myocutaneous flap can be used instead of free anterolateral thigh flap. Gastric pull-up for reconstruction of upper digestive tract is suitable for most patients with cervical esophageal cancer and hypopharyngeal carcinoma invading the cervical esophagus who are not suitable for laryngotracheal flap reconstruction, with good swallowing function after surgery. However, it is prudent to choose operative indications because of serious surgical trauma and risks for complications.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the efficacies of different treatment modalities for patients with advanced hypopharyngeal cancers, which were treated by induction chemotherapy and surgery combined with radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy.@*Methods@#A retrospective analysis was performed on the complete clinical and follow-up data of 92 patients with pathologically confirmed hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated at Liaoning Tumor Hospital from January 2011 to December 2016. The tumor clinical staging was as follows: stage Ⅱ in 3 cases, stage Ⅲ in 33 cases, and stage Ⅳ in 56 cases. All patients underwent electronic esophagoscopy before treatment to remove esophageal cancer patients. The patients and their families chose voluntarily their desirable treatments from following modalities: A. Induction chemotherapy sensitivity plus radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy, otherwise induction chemotherapy insensitivity plus surgical treatment; B. Surgical treatment plus radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy, with drugs to control adverse reactions. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate OS rates and Log-rank test was used to compare the OS rates between the two groups. Crosstabs was used to compare the difference in the 1, 3 and 5-year OS rates and the organ preservation rates between group A and group B, using chi-square test as non-parametric test.@*Results@#Fifty-two patients were enrolled in group A, after 2 cycles of induction chemotherapies with TPF(docetaxel, cisplatine, 5-Fu), there were 46 sensitive cases with primary lesions reduced by ≥50% (including 5 cases with tumor complete response) and 6 insensitive cases with primary lesions reduced by <50%. The 46 sensitive patients were treated with radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy according to their physical conditions and 6 insensitive patients treated with surgery, including total laryngectomy for 5 cases and partial laryngectomy for one case. The 1, 3, and 5-year OS for 52 patients in group A were 91.93%, 49.59%, and 37.20%, respectively, with an organ preservation rate of 90.4% (47/52). Forty patients were enrolled in group B, including 33 cases with total laryngectomy and 7 cases with partial laryngectomy. The 1, 3, and 5-year OS for 40 patients in group B were 77.50%, 57.86% and 43.41%, respectively, with an organ preservation rate of 17.5%(7/40). The 1-year OS of group A was higher than group B (χ2=4.349, P<0.05), and there was no statistical difference in the 3-year or 5-year OS between two groups. The organ preservation rate of 90.4% (47/52) in group A was higher than that (17.5%, 17/40) in group B, with a significant difference (χ2=49.539, P<0.001).@*Conclusions@#The clinical effectiveness for advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma is still poor, and surgical treatment is still the main treatment method. According to the results of induction chemotherapy, radiotherapy, concurrent chemoradiotherapy or surgical treatment can be chosen, and ideal and feasible treatment modalities may improve the quality of life of patients, with high OS rate laryngeal preservation rate.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo verify the reliability of the mouse model of cerebral cortical microinfarct induced by two-photon microscopy and to explore its pathological changes.MethodsSeventeen male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a microinfarct group (n=11) or a sham operation group (n=6).A thinned cranial window of 3 mm diameter was performed over the cerebral cortex with a high-speed micro-drill until the small blood vessels were clearly observed under a dissecting microscope.Then, a permanent single cortical penetrating arteriole occlusion was induced with a gradually enhanced ultrashort laser irradiation through the thinned cranial window with two-photon microscopy.At 7 days after modeling, the cerebral microinfarct volume was measured with HE staining, and the neuron loss, activation of glial cells and deposition of 3-nitrotyrosine were assessed using immunohistochemistry.ResultsThe target vessels of cerebral cortex in 8 (72.7%) mice were occluded and the microinfarcts formed in the microinfarct group, and the average microinfarct volume was 317.23±20.29 μm3.There were remarkable neuron loss and microglia infiltration in the infarcted core, a large number of reactive astrocytes surrounding the infarcted lesion, and massive deposition of 3-nitrotyrosine in the peri-infarct area.No infarcts were observed in the sham operation group.The deposition of 3-nitrotyrosine in the sham operation group was significantly less than that in the microinfarct group (8.00±1.48 vs.98.38±9.10;t=23.962, P<0.001).Conclusions The mouse model of cerebral cortical microinfarct induced by two-photon microscopy is reliable, and its histopathologic changes are consistent with the pathologic features of cerebral microinfarct.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the metastatic sequence of cervical lymph node in hypopharyngeal carcinoma aimed at guiding neck exploration.@*Methods@#Seventy-five serial sections of integrally dissected lateral neck specimens from 67 patients of hypophayryngeal carcinoma were histopathologically observed, and the metastatic sequence of cervical lymph node of hypophayryngeal carcinoma were analysed.@*Results@#In 75 integrally dissected lateral neck specimens, 63 laterals were found to occur cervical lymph node metastases, the metastatic ratio was 84.0%. The analytic result of 63 dissected lateral neck specimens with positive lymph nodes showed that the metastatic lymph node ratio in descending order was level Ⅱ (90.5%), level Ⅲ (76.2%), level Ⅳ (41.3%), level Ⅴ (15.9%), level Ⅰ (7.9%) and level Ⅵ (3.2%). The metastatic ratio of lymph node between level Ⅰ~Ⅵ were significantly different from each other (P<0.01). When the tumor metastasized to one cervical lymph node, this could be found in levels Ⅱ or Ⅲ, when metastasized to two cervical lymph nodes, these could be found in levels Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ, and when metastasized to more than 5 of cervical lymph nodes, these could be found in levels Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ, Ⅴ, Ⅰand Ⅵ. According to the occurring sequence, metastatic ratio and number of cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM), levels Ⅱ and Ⅲ were identified as the first station, level Ⅳ was the second station and levels Ⅴ, Ⅰ and Ⅵ were the third station of cervical LNM in hypopharyngeal carcinoma.@*Conclusion@#The confirmation of metastatic sequence of cervical lymph node in hypophayryngeal carcinoma provides a reliable evidence for neck lymph node dissection and reference value for clinic therapy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the neuroprotective effect of cyclosporine A against cerebral ischemia in a rat model of cerebral ischemia reperfusion. Methods Fifty-two adult male SD rats, weighted 250-280 gram, were randomly divided into three groups: the sham group (group A, n=6), PBS control group (group B, n=23) and cyclosporine A group (group C, n=23). Group C received hypodermic injection of cyclosporine A 10mg/kg daily after surgery and group B re?ceived equal volume of PBS instead. Modified Neurological Severity(mNss)scores were used to assess the neurological deficits at 3, 7, 14, 21 and 30 days following cerebral ischemia. The infarct volume were measured 3 days after reperfu?sion. The neurons, reactive microglia and astrocytes around the infract area were detected by immunofluorescence at 3 and 30 days after surgery. Results Modified Neurological Severity scores were significantly lower in group C than group B at the third(P=0.003),seventh (P=0.011),Fourteenth (P=0.000),twenty-first (P=0.003) and thirtieth (P=0.004) days after surgery. cyclosporine A reduced infarct volume, reactive microglia and astrocytes while increased survived neurons (P<0.001) in ischemic penumbra 3 and 30 days after reperfusion (all P<0.001). Conclusion Continuous injection of cyclosporine A not only protects neurons against ischemia damage but also improves neurological functional recovery af?ter acute stage of damage, possibly through reduction of reactive microglia cells and proliferation of astrocytes.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigated the clinicopathologic features of familial papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) compared to sporadic PTC.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Between January 2008 and August 2014, 20 patients who underwent surgery at Liaoning Cancer Hospital and Institute were diagnosed with familial PTC. We compared the clinicopathologic characteristics between familial PTC and sporadic PTC.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The prevalence of familial PTC was 1.3% (20/1 587). The median age of patients at diagnosis was 37 years and there were 12 females and 8 males. Thirty percent of the familial PTC cases exhibited a parent-offspring relationship, and 70% exhibited a sibling relationship. There were significant differences between familial PTC and sporadic PTC in terms of concomitant chronic thyroiditis (P < 0.01), nodular goiter (P = 0.04), tumor multicentricity (P < 0.01), bilaterality (P < 0.01), histological subtype (P < 0.01), and central lymph node metastasis (P = 0.02). When familial PTC patients were classified based on parent-child and sibling relationship, there were significant differences in preoperative TSH level (P = 0.02) and concomitant chronic thyroiditis (P = 0.01) between the two categories.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>There are significant differences in clinicopathologic features between familial PTC and sporadic PTC and between familial PTC with parent-child and those with sibling relationship. Familial PTC appears more aggressive than sporadic carcinoma. Optimal treatment for familial PTC is not yet established, but improved awareness and screening will permit earlier detection, more timely intervention, and improved outcomes for patients and their families.</p>
