Objective:To compare the clinical efficacies between arthroscopic anatomic single bundle reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) assisted by internal tension relieving technique combined with rapid rehabilitation and anatomic single bundle reconstruction combined with conventional rehabilitation in the treatment of PCL rupture.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the clinical data of 88 patients with PCL rupture admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from September 2016 to September 2020. The patients included 65 males and 23 females, aged 18-55 years [(39.3±10.8)years]. Forty-four patients underwent arthroscopic anatomic single bundle reconstruction of PCL assisted by internal tension relieving technique combined with rapid rehabilitation therapy (tension-relieving group), and 44 patients underwent arthroscopic routine anatomic single bundle reconstruction of PCL combined with conventional rehabilitation (traditional group). The two groups were compared before and at 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery regarding the following items: International Knee Literature Committee (IKDC) score, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, Lysholm score, knee motion cycle (maximum stride length, minimum stride length, and stride frequency) and 6 kinematic indicators (angle of forward and back extension, angle of internal and external rotation, angle of internal and external rotation, up and down displacement, internal and external displacement, and forward and back displacement). The Marburger arthroscopy score (MAS) and Professor Ao Yingfang′s improved score by secondary arthroscopy were compared between the two groups at 12 months after surgery. The perioperative complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed for 24-36 months [(25.5±6.3)months]. In tension-relieving group and the traditional group, the values of IKDC score were (71.8±9.8)points and (68.5±6.5)points at 3 months after surgery, (87.6±6.0)points and (87.6±5.5)points at 12 months after surgery, and (95.5±3.1)points and (92.8±11.6)points at 24 months after surgery, respectively. The values were gradually increased, significantly higher than those before surgery [(48.1±16.9)points and (47.1±15.0)points] (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups at each time point (all P>0.05). In tension-relieving group and the traditional group, the values of HSS score were (74.2±6.2)points and (68.4±9.5)points at 3 months after surgery, (91.9±5.4)points and (88.4±4.7)points at 12 months after surgery, and (97.1±2.0)points and (96.2±2.8)points at 24 months after surgery, respectively. The values of HSS score gradually increased, significantly higher than those before surgery [(57.5±17.7)points and (56.8±14.3)points] (all P<0.05). At 3 and 12 months after surgery, the values of HSS score in the tension-relieving group were significantly higher than those in the traditional group (all P<0.05), but others were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). In tension-relieving group and the traditional group, the values of Lysholm score were (74.2±14.9)points and (70.3±7.5)points at 3 months after surgery, (90.9±6.1)points and (88.7±4.7)points at 12 months after surgery, and (96.9±3.0)points and (96.3±2.8)points at 24 months after surgery, respectively. The values of Lysholm score were gradually increased, significantly higher than those before operation [(48.7±20.7)points and (48.2±19.9)points] (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups at any time points (all P>0.05). At 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery, the motion cycle (maximum stride length, minimum stride length and stride frequency) and 6 kinematic indicators (angle of forward bending and backward extension, angle of internal and external rotation, angle of internal and external rotation, internal and external displacement, up and down displacement, and forward and backward displacement) of knee joint were significantly improved in both groups compared with those before surgery (all P<0.05). At 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery, the forward and backward displacement in the tension-relieving group was significantly decreased than that in the traditional group (all P<0.05), but others were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). The MAS was rated as excellent to good in 14 patients and fair to poor in 2, with the excellent and good rate of 87.5% (14/16) in the tension-relieving group, while the score was rated as excellent to good in 11 patients and fair to poor in 3, with the excellent and good rate of 78.6% (11/14) in the traditional group ( P>0.05). The Professor Ao Yingfang′s improved score was (10.6±1.5)points in the tension-relieving group, markedly higher than that in the traditional group [(9.6±2.3)points] ( P<0.05). No perioperative complications were observed. Conclusion:Compared with anatomic single bundle reconstruction combined with conventional rehabilitation, arthroscopic anatomic single bundle reconstruction of PCL assisted by internal tension relieving technique combined with rapid rehabilitation have higher subjective function score, better anteroposteric stability during knee movement, and better results of secondary microscopy.

Objective:To compare the efficacies of 3D printed guide plate assisted positioning and C-arm X-ray machine fluoroscopic positioning for femoral tunnel reconstruction of medial patellofemoral ligament in treating recurrent patellofemoral dislocation.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was performed on the clinical data of 60 patients with recurrent patellar dislocation admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022. The patients included 29 males and 31 females, with age range of 14-40 years [(28.6±7.6)years]. The 3D printed guide plate was used to locate the femoral tunnel in 30 patients for medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (3D guide group), and C-arm X-ray machine was used for another 30 patients (conventional group). (1) CT data of the knee joint were collected before surgery and at 7 days after surgery. Mimics 19.0 software was introduced to measure the distance between the center of femoral tunnel and Sch?ttle point after surgery. (2) Knee Lysholm score and Kujala score were used to evaluate the knee function before and at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after surgery. (3) At the same time points, Opti-Knee TM 3D knee kinematics analysis system was used to collect the forward and backward displacement, up and down displacement, internal and external displacement, internal and external flipping angle, internal and external rotation angle, and flexion and extension angle of the affected knee joint. The range of each freedom degree was calculated and 6 freedom degree items of 30 healthy people were subjected to knee kinematics analysis. Results:All patients were followed up for 12-15 months [(12.3±0.7)months]. (1) The distance between the center of femoral tunnel and Sch?ttle point in the 3D guide group was (5.5±2.3)mm, smaller than that in the conventional group [(7.6±2.5)mm] ( P<0.01). (2) The Lysholm score and Kujala score of the 3D guide group and conventional gruop gradually increased after surgery (all P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the Lysholm score or Kujala score between the 3D guide group and conventional gruop before surgery and at 12 months after surgery (all P>0.05). At 3, 6 and 9 months after surgery, the Lysholm score of the 3D guide group [(70.4±4.5)points, (86.4±3.1)points, (91.2±3.2)points] and Kujala score [(74.2±5.3)points, (80.9±3.5)points, (85.2±3.2)points] were higher than those of the conventional group [Lysholm score: (67.3±5.2)points, (81.8±2.5)points, (86.2±1.9)points; Kujala score: (69.8±5.2)points, (77.6±2.1)points, (82.7±2.6)points] ( P<0.05 or 0.01). (3) Before surgery, the forward and backward displacement in the 3D guide group and conventional group [(0.6±0.1)cm, (0.6±0.2)cm], up and down displacement [(0.5±0.1)cm, (0.6±0.0)cm], internal and external displacement [(0.7±0.1)cm, (0.6±0.2)cm], and flexion and extension angle [(50.6±10.3)°, (51.6±8.5)°] were less than those in the healthy controls [(1.6±0.3)cm, (1.7±0.5)cm, (1.0±0.4)cm, (63.2±5.1)°] (all P<0.05), while the internal and external flipping angle [(17.5±4.0)°, (17.1±3.8)°] and internal and external rotation angle [(17.9±1.9)°, (17.5±1.5)°] were greater than those in the healthy controls [(11.8±3.6)°, (15.8±4.9)°] (all P<0.05). At other time points, the results of front and back displacement, up and down displacement, internal and external displacement, internal and external rotation angle in the 3D guide group and conventional group were not significantly different compared with the healthy controls (all P>0.05). The flexion and extension angle in the 3D guide group and conventional gruop were smaller than those in the healthy controls at 3 months after surgery (all P<0.05). At 6 and 9 months after surgery, the flexion and extension angle in the conventional group [(55.0±3.7)°, (57.7±4.8)°] were smaller than those in the healthy controls [(63.2±5.1)°, (63.2±5.1)°] (all P<0.05), but no significant difference was found between the 3D guide group [(61.0±4.8)°, (61.8±4.9)°] and the healthy controls (all P>0.05). The flexion and extension angle in the 3D guide group and conventional gruop was similar with that in the healthy controls at 12 months after surgery (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the C-arm X-ray machine, the 3D printed guide plate assisted positioning of femoral tunnel is more simple and accurate for the medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction in treating recurrent patellofemoral dislocation, together with better early knee function recovery, better satisfaction of the patients, and better and faster restoration of the flexion and extension angle of knee joint kinematic function.

Effectiveness of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with personalized femoral locator based on apex of deep cartilage / 中国修复重建外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effectiveness of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction assisted by personalized femoral locator based on the apex of deep cartilage (ADC) combined with patient imaging data.@*METHODS@#Between January 2021 and January 2022, a total of 40 patients with primary ACL rupture were selected and randomly divided into study group (ACL reconstruction assisted by personalized femoral locator based on ADC) and control group (ACL reconstruction assisted by intraoperative fluoroscopy and traditional femoral locator), with 20 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, affected side, cause of injury, and preoperative International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lyshlom score, and Tegner score between the two groups ( P>0.05). IKDC score, Lyshlom score, and Tegner score were used to evaluate the functional recovery of the affected knee before operation and at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation. CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction were performed before and after operation to measure the horizontal distance from ADC to the anterior cartilage margin (L) and the horizontal distance from ADC to the center of the femoral canal (I), and the anteroposterior position of the bone canal (R) was calculated by I/L; the distance from the center to the distal cartilage margin (D) was measured on the two-dimensional cross section; the R value and D value were compared between the two groups.@*RESULTS@#The operation time of the study group was significantly less than that of the control group [ MD=-6.90 (-8.78, -5.03), P<0.001]. The incisions of the two groups healed by first intention, and no complication such as intra-articular infection, nerve injury, and deep vein thrombosis of lower limbs occurred. There was no significant difference in the R value and D value between the preoperative simulated positioning and the actual intraoperative positioning in the study group [ MD=0.52 (-2.85, 3.88), P=0.758; MD=0.36 (-0.39, 1.11), P=0.351]. There was no significant difference in the actual intraoperative positioning R value and D value between the study group and the control group [ MD=1.01 (-2.57, 4.58), P=0.573; MD=0.24 (-0.34, 0.82), P=0.411]. The patients in both groups were followed up 12-13 months (mean, 12.4 months). The IKDC score, Lysholm score, and Tegner score of the two groups increased gradually with time, and there were significant differences between pre- and post-operation ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the scores between the two groups at each time point after operation ( P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The personalized femoral locator based on ADC can accurately assist the femoral tunnel positioning in ACL reconstruction, which can shorten the operation time when compared with traditional surgical methods, and achieve satisfactory early effectiveness.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the changes of knee joint kinematics after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction assisted by personalized femoral positioner based on the apex of deep cartilage (ADC).@*METHODS@#Between January 2021 and January 2022, a total of 40 patients with initial ACL rupture who met the selection criteria were randomly divided into the study group (using the personalized femoral positioner based on ADC design to assist ACL reconstruction) and the control group (not using the personalized femoral positioner to assist ACL reconstruction), with 20 patients in each group. Another 20 volunteers with normal knee were collected as a healthy group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, and affected side between groups ( P>0.05). Gait analysis was performed at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation using Opti _ Knee three-dimensional knee joint motion measurement and analysis system, and the 6 degrees of freedom (flexion and extension angle, varus and valgus angle, internal and external rotation angle, anteroposterior displacement, superior and inferior displacement, internal and external displacement) and motion cycle (maximum step length, minimum step length, and step frequency) of the knee joint were recorded. The patients' data was compared to the data of healthy group.@*RESULTS@#In the healthy group, the flexion and extension angle was (57.80±3.45)°, the varus and valgus angle was (10.54±1.05)°, the internal and external rotation angle was (13.02±1.66)°, and the anteroposterior displacement was (1.44±0.39) cm, the superior and inferior displacement was (0.86±0.20) cm, and the internal and external displacement was (1.38±0.39) cm. The maximum step length was (51.24±1.29) cm, the minimum step length was (45.69±2.28) cm, and the step frequency was (12.45±0.47) step/minute. Compared with the healthy group, the flexion and extension angles and internal and external rotation angles of the patients in the study group and the control group decreased at 3 months after operation, and the flexion and extension angles of the patients in the control group decreased at 6 months after operation, and the differences were significant ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the other time points and other indicators when compared with healthy group ( P>0.05). In the study group, the flexion and extension angles and internal and external rotation angles at 6 and 12 months after operation were significantly greater than those at 3 months after operation ( P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in the other indicators at other time points ( P>0.05). There was a significant difference in flexion and extension angle between the study group and the control group at 6 months after operation ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference of the indicators between the two groups at other time points ( P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Compared with conventional surgery, ACL reconstruction assisted by personalized femoral positioner based on ADC design can help patients achieve more satisfactory early postoperative kinematic results, and three-dimensional kinematic analysis can more objectively and dynamically evaluate the postoperative recovery of knee joint.

Progress in evaluation of return to sports after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction / 中国修复重建外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To summarize the evaluation methods of return to sports (RTS) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in recent years, in order to provide reference for clinical practice.@*METHODS@#The literature related to the RTS after ACLR was searched from CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, and Foreign Medical Information Resources Retrieval Platform (FMRS) databases. The retrieval range was from 2010 to 2023, and 66 papers were finally included for review. The relevant literature was summarized and analyzed from the aspects of RTS time, objective evaluation indicators, and psychological evaluation.@*RESULTS@#RTS is the common desire of patients with ACL injury and doctors, as well as the initial intention of selecting surgery. A reasonable and perfect evaluation method of RTS can not only help patients recover to preoperative exercise level, but also protect patients from re-injury. At present, the main criterion for clinical judgement of RTS is time. It is basically agreed that RTS after 9 months can reduce the re-injury. In addition to time, it is also necessary to test the lower limb muscle strength, jumping, balance, and other aspects of the patient, comprehensively assess the degree of functional recovery and determine the different time of RTS according to the type of exercise. Psychological assessment plays an important role in RTS and has a good clinical predictive effect.@*CONCLUSION@#RTS is one of the research hotspots after ACLR. At present, there are many related evaluation methods, which need to be further optimized by more research to build a comprehensive and standardized evaluation system.

OBJECTIVE@#To clarify the intervention guidance of return to sports WeChat applet and evaluate the rehabilitation effectiveness after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.@*METHODS@#Between September 2020 and September 2022, 80 patients who met the selection criteria and underwent ACL anatomical single bundle reconstruction were selected as the research objects. According to the double-blind random method, they were divided into the applet group and the regular group, with 40 cases in each group. Patients in the applet group were rehabilitated under the guidance of the return to sports WeChat applet, and the patients were asked to perform the test once a month after operation, including patients' subjective scores [Tegner score, knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, American Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score], psychological assessment [ACL recovery sports injury scale (ACL-RSI) score], jumping test, balance test, bending angle test. Patients in the regular group were followed up by doctors and nurses regularly by telephone every month. All the patients were reexamined at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after operation, and the range of motion of the knee joint with 6 degrees of freedom (flexion and extension angle, varus and valgus angle, internal and external rotation angle, anteroposterior displacement, superior and inferior displacement, and internal and external displacement) recorded by Opti_Knee three-dimensional knee joint motion measurement gait analysis system was observed. The anterior tibial translation difference (ATTD) was measured by Ligs knee measuring instrument when a forward thrust of 120 N was applied to the posterior part of the proximal tibia. Tegner score, IKDC score, KOOS score (including KOOS-Pain score, KOOS-Symptoms score, KOOS-Activities of daily living score, KOOS-Sport score, and KOOS-Quality of life score), HSS score, ACL-RSI score, jumping ability, balance ability, patients' satisfaction with the rehabilitation process, and ACL healing grading according to ACL continuity and signal intensity shown by MRI.@*RESULTS@#There were significant differences in various indicators between different time points after operation in the two groups ( P<0.05). At 3 months after operation, except that the ACL-RSI score of the applet group was significantly higher than that of the regular group ( P<0.05), there was no significant difference in the other indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 6 months after operation, the ACL-RSI score, IKDC score, Tegner score, KOOS scores of different items, HSS score, balance and jumping ability of the applet group were significantly higher than those of the regular group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the other indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 9 months after operation, there was no significant difference in all indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, 27 cases (67.5%) in the applet group and 21 cases (52.5%) in the regular group returned to sport, with a significant difference of the return to sports incidence between the two groups [ RR(95% CI)=1.50 (1.00, 2.25), P=0.049]. In the applet group, 27 cases were very satisfied with the rehabilitation process, 10 cases were satisfied, 2 cases were basically satisfied, and 1 case was not satisfied, while 19, 13, 5, and 3 cases in the regular group, respectively. The satisfaction degree of the applet group was significantly better than that of the regular group ( P=0.049). MRI examination of the two groups showed that the ACL was continuous without secondary rupture or necrosis. The ACL healing grade of the applet group was 31 cases of grade 1 and 9 cases of grade 2, and that of the regular group was 28 cases of grade 1 and 12 cases of grade 2, there was no significant difference in ACL healing grade between the two groups ( P=0.449).@*CONCLUSION@#The application of return to sports WeChat applet in the rehabilitation of patients after ACL reconstruction can significantly reduce the fear of return to sports and improve the rate of return to sports.

Nerve conduits of chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol with brain-derived neurotrophic factor microspheres for peripheral nerve defects in rats / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: The repair of peripheral nerve defects by nerve conduit bridging can provide a suitable microenvironment for nerve regeneration. On one hand, it can provide a unique channel for nerve regeneration, prevent the invasion of peripheral connective tissue and the formation of scars. On the other hand, it can maintain endogenous and exogenous neurotrophic factors, growth factors and other stimulants to promote axon growth. OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol catheter injected with brain-derived neurotrophic factor sustained-release microspheres to bridge peripheral nerve defects. METHODS: Chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol nerve conduit was prepared by repeated freeze-thaw technique. The brain-derived neurotrophic factor microspheres were obtained by polymer-alloys combined with oil-oil emulsion/solvent evaporation method. A 15 mm sciatic nerve defect model was made in the right hindlimb of 60 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. They were selected and randomly divided into four groups (n=15 per group): group A implanted with autogenous sciatic nerve; group B implanted with chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol nerve catheter, injected with normal saline; group C implanted with chitosan/ polyvinyl alcohol nerve catheter, injected with brain-derived neurotrophic factor solution; group D implanted with chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol nerve catheter, injected with brain-derived neurotrophic factor sustained-release microspheres. General observation, histological inspection, and electrophysiological determination were performed at 4 months after the surgery. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Gross anatomy showed that muscle atrophy in group A and group D was lighter than that in the other two groups. The grafts in four groups were all adhered to the peripheral tissues, and the nerve in the autotransplantation segment was strongly adhered to the peripheral tissues. In group D, the regenerated nerve had connected the distal and proximal nerves, and the regenerated nerve filled the conduit. (2) Electrophysiological examination showed that the latency of group D was shorter than that of groups B and C (P 0.05). (3) Histological observation showed that there were regenerated nerve fibers in groups B, C, and D. The diameter, number and thickness of myelin sheath of group D were larger than those of group B and group C (P 0.05). (4) The results showed that the injection of brain-derived neurotrophic factor microspheres into chitosan/PVA catheter had a long-term promoting effect on peripheral nerve regeneration.

Experimental study on establishing tumor bearing nude mice model with different ovarian adenocarcinoma cell lines / 医学研究生学报

Objective:To establish the best way of tumor-bearing nude mice model with epithelial ovarian adenocarcinoma cell lines. Methods:CAOV3 (wall-attached cell) and COC2 (suspended cell) cell lines were transplanted subcutaneously to the nude mice by injection with different cell concentration or tissue block implantation. Results:The rate and time of tumor formation in the two cell lines were not related to cell concentration in the range from 5?10 6/0.2 ml to 6?10 7/0.2 ml. Time of tumor formation was earlier(especially in the manner of tissue block implantation),the successful rate of tumor formation was higher and the speed of tumor growth was relatively retarded in the nude mice bore CAOV3 cell line's tumor than that in COC2 cell line's. But once tumors were formed in nude mice bearing COC2 cell line, the mice died too fast to make experiment because of very quick speed of tumor growth. Conclusion:Wall-attached cell line, tissue block implantation with trocar may be the best way to establish tumor-bearing nude mice model in epithelial ovarian adenocarcinoma cell lines.
