RESUMO
Objective@#To discuss the imagingcharacteristics of S2AI screw trajectory in ADS patients.@*Methods@#Forty patients with degenerative scoliosis were scanned with Simens Sliding 40-slice spiral CT scanner. Three-dimensional scanning and reconstruction were performed in these patients with the scanning range including thoracolumbar spine, lumbar spine, lumbosacral region, pelvis and bilateral hip joints. The base of the lateral sacral crest on the midline between the lower edge of S1 dorsal foramina and the upper edge of S2 dorsal foramina was the starting point. The placement plane of S2AI screw trajectory was determined from the starting point to the lower margin of anterior inferior iliac spine. A 10mm diameter screw was the design template. A circle with a diameter of 5 mm as the center of the lowest point of the ilium inner cortex was made, and a tangent line from the starting point to the outer diameter of the circle (the inner part of the ilium) was selected as the axis of the screw trajectory. The lateral angle and the length of the axis of the screw trajectory and iliac width were measured in transverse plane. The caudal angle, the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to iliosciatic notch, and the caudal angle, the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to the upper edge of the acetabulum were measured in sagittal plane. These parameters were recorded and analyzed.@*Results@#The trajectory length of S2AI screw in ADS patients was 12.00±0.99 cm, the lateral angle was 41.24°±3.92°, the caudal angle was 27.73°±6.45°, and the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to iliosciatic notch was 1.05±0.81 cm, the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to the upper edge of the acetabulum was 1.85 ± 0.33 cm, and the iliac width was 2.12±1.65 cm. The trajectory length, lateral angle, caudal angle, distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to iliosciatic notch, distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to the upper edge of the acetabulum and iliac width of S2AI screw was respectively 12.40±0.83 cm, 39.47°±1.76°, 28.00°±6.39°, 1.08±0.32 cm, 1.76±0.34 cm, 2.26±0.25 cm in male patients, and was respectively 11.75±1.01 cm, 42.30°±4.48°, 27.56°±6.61°, 1.21±1.00 cm, 1.90±0.32 cm, 2.04±0.18 cm in female patients. The screw length and lateral angle had statistically difference between male and female patients(P<0.05). Compared with non-ADS patients in previous studies, female patients with ADS had significant differences in increased lateral angle and decreased caudal angle of S2AI screw.@*Conclusion@#There is ideal trajectory of S2AI screws in ADS patients. There was no significant difference of the length of S2AI screws between ADS patients and non-ADS population. Different direction was noticed in the placement of S2AI screws, especially in female patients. Increased lateral angle and decreased caudal angle would be obtained in the procedure of placing S2AI screws in female ADS patients during operation.
RESUMO
Objective To discuss the imagingcharacteristics of S2AI screw trajectory in ADS patients. Methods Forty patients with degenerative scoliosis were scanned with Simens Sliding 40?slice spiral CT scanner. Three?dimensional scanning and reconstruction were performed in these patients with the scanning range including thoracolumbar spine, lumbar spine, lumbosacral region, pelvis and bilateral hip joints. The base of the lateral sacral crest on the midline between the lower edge of S1 dorsal foram?ina and the upper edge of S2 dorsal foramina was the starting point. The placement plane of S2AI screw trajectory was determined from the starting point to the lower margin of anterior inferior iliac spine. A 10mm diameter screw was the design template. A cir?cle with a diameter of 5 mm as the center of the lowest point of the ilium inner cortex was made, and a tangent line from the start?ing point to the outer diameter of the circle (the inner part of the ilium) was selected as the axis of the screw trajectory. The lateral angle and the length of the axis of the screw trajectory and iliac width were measured in transverse plane. The caudal angle, the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to iliosciatic notch, and the caudal angle, the distance from the axis of the screw tra?jectory to the upper edge of the acetabulum were measured in sagittal plane. These parameters were recorded and analyzed. Re?sults The trajectory length of S2AI screw in ADS patients was 12.00±0.99 cm, the lateral angle was 41.24°±3.92°, the caudal an?gle was 27.73°±6.45°, and the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to iliosciatic notch was 1.05±0.81 cm, the distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to the upper edge of the acetabulum was 1.85 ± 0.33 cm, and the iliac width was 2.12±1.65 cm. The trajectory length, lateral angle, caudal angle, distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to iliosciatic notch, distance from the axis of the screw trajectory to the upper edge of the acetabulum and iliac width of S2AI screw was respectively 12.40± 0.83 cm, 39.47°±1.76°, 28.00°±6.39°, 1.08±0.32 cm, 1.76±0.34 cm, 2.26±0.25 cm in male patients, and was respectively 11.75± 1.01 cm, 42.30°±4.48°, 27.56°±6.61°, 1.21±1.00 cm, 1.90±0.32 cm, 2.04±0.18 cm in female patients. The screw length and later?al angle had statistically difference between male and female patients(P<0.05). Compared with non?ADS patients in previous stud? ies, female patients with ADS had significant differences in increased lateral angle and decreased caudal angle of S2AI screw. Con?clusion There is ideal trajectory of S2AI screws in ADS patients. There was no significant difference of the length of S2AI screws between ADS patients and non?ADS population. Different direction was noticed in the placement of S2AI screws, especially in fe?male patients. Increased lateral angle and decreased caudal angle would be obtained in the procedure of placing S2AI screws in fe?male ADS patients during operation.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the expression change of intestinal epithelial tight junction (IJ)protein claudin-1 in mice with fulminant hepatic failure (FHF).Methods FHF was induced with a method that combined intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS,10 mg/kg) and D-galactosamine (GalN,800 mg/kg).Control saline (2 ml/kg,ip),LPS (10 mg/kg,ip) and GaIN (800 mg/kg,ip) were also detected.The effect of administration of anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) IgG antibody (anti-TNF-α IgG,100 μg/per) on the level of TNF-α was assessed before administration of D-galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide.At the 2nd h,6th h,9th h,12th h,24th h after injection in FHF group,the 9th h after injection in control groups and 9th h after injection in anti-TNF-α IgG group,the mice were killed for the collection of large intestine specimens.Claudin-1 was analyzed with immunohistochemistry,Western blotting,and real-time quantitative PCR.Results Tight junction protein claudin-1 was localized along the apical region of the lateral plasma membrane representing the region of tight junctions in surface and crypt epithelial cells.Weakly distributed density of claudin-1 in intestinal mucosa was found in mice with FHF from the 9th h after injection.Compared to saline group,Western blotting analysis demonstrated markedly reduced claudin-1 expression in mice with FHF at the 6th h and 9th h after injection (6th h:0.8600±0.0208 vs 1.0,P ＜0.05; 9th h:0.6633 ±0.0328 vs 1.0,P ＜0.01).Furthermore,the expression of claudin-1 mRNA was markedly reduced at the 6th h,9th h,and 12th h after injection in mice with FHF (6th h:0.3067 ±0.1291 vs 1.0,P ＜0.05; 9th h:0.2233 ±0.1155 vs 1.0,P ＜0.01 ; 12th h:0.5275 ±0.1222 vs 1.0,P ＜0.05).Compared to saline group,no significant difference in claudin-1 expression was found with prophylactic treatment with anti-TNF-α-IgG antibody in mice with FHF at the 9th h after injection (protein:0.9533 ±0.0186 vs 1.0,P ＞0.05; mRNA:0.85 ±0.1437 vs 1.0,P ＞0.05).Conclusions The expression of tight junction protein claudin-1 was reduced at both protein and mRNA levels in intestinal epithelial cells that were induced by TNF-α in mice model of FHF.
