    Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of lumbar interbody fusion impacted bone grafts combined with regrafting in situ with spinous process and vertebral plate complex and pedicle screw fixation for lumbar degenerative instabil ity. Methods Between January 1998 and October 2010, 48 patients with lumbar degenerative instabil ity were treated by posterior decompression, lumbar interbody fusion impacted bone grafts combined with regrafting in situ with spinous processand vertebral plate complex and pedicle screw fixation. There were 26 males and 22 females, aged 52-76 years (mean, 62.4 years). The disease duration was 7 months to 25 years (mean, 6.5 years). One segmental instabil ity was located at L3, 4 in 1 case, at L4, 5 in 10 cases, and at L5, S1 in 11 cases; multi-segmental instabil ity was located at L3, 4, L4, 5, and L5, S1 in 5 cases, at L2, 3 and L3, 4 in 2 cases, at L3, 4 and L4, 5 in 10 cases, and at L4, 5 and L5, S1 in 9 cases. Of 48 patients, 32 complicated by lumbar disc herniation, 46 by lumbar spinal stenosis, and 16 by degenerative scol iosis. The cl inical results were evaluated by the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, recovery rate, disc height, and lumbar lordosis angles. Results The incisions obtained healing by first intention after operation. No nerve injury, rod or screw breakage, and infection occurred during and after operation. All 48 patients were followed up 1 to 6 years. The fusion time was 12-18 weeks (mean, 16.2 weeks). Vertebra sl i pping or degenerative scol iosis was corrected, and spinal column series became normal. At preoperation, 6 months after operation, and last follow-up, the disc heights were (5.2 ± 2.3), (11.9 ± 2.0), and (11.6 ± 2.1) mm, respectively; the JOA scores were 3.2 ± 2.1, 12.8 ± 1.6, and 13.6 ± 1.2, respectively; and the lumbar lordosis angles were (—20.5 ± 10.5), (30.5 ± 8.5), and (31.2 ± 5.6)°, respectively. The JOA scores, disc heights, and lumbar lordosis angles were significantly improved at 6 months after operation and last follow-up when compared with preoperative ones (P lt; 0.05), but no significant difference was found between 6 months after operation and last follow-up (P gt; 0.05). The recovery rate of JOA was excellent in 36 cases, good in 10 cases, and fair in 2 cases at 6 months after operation, with an excellent and good rate of 95.8%. Conclusion Lumbar interbody fusion impacted bone grafts combined with regrafting in situ with spinous process and vertebral plate complex and pedicle crew fixation for lumbar degenerative instabil ity can restore and maintain the intervertebral disc height effectively with high fusion rate.

  • Research on adaptive pulse signal extraction algorithm based on fingertip video image

    In order to solve the saturation distortion phenomenon of R component in fingertip video image, this paper proposes an iterative threshold segmentation algorithm, which adaptively generates the region to be detected for the R component, and extracts the human pulse signal by calculating the gray mean value of the region to be detected. The original pulse signal has baseline drift and high frequency noise. Combining with the characteristics of pulse signal, a zero phase digital filter is designed to filter out noise interference. Fingertip video images are collected on different smartphones, and the region to be detected is extracted by the algorithm proposed in this paper. Considering that the fingertip’s pressure will be different during each measurement, this paper makes a comparative analysis of pulse signals extracted under different pressures. In order to verify the accuracy of the algorithm proposed in this paper in heart rate detection, a comparative experiment of heart rate detection was conducted. The results show that the algorithm proposed in this paper can accurately extract human heart rate information and has certain portability, which provides certain theoretical help for further development of physiological monitoring application on smartphone platform.

  • ONE-STAGE OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF ATLANTO-AXIAL INSTABILITY WITH STENOSIS OF LOWER CERVICAL LEVEL OF SPINAL CANAL

    To cure patients suffering from atlanto-axial instability following old fracture of odontoid process concomitant with stenosis of lower end of cervical spinal canal, a new operative method was designed. It included atlanto-axial fusion by Gallie technique and resection of right half of the laminae of C3-C7 spine at one stage. A female of 63 years old was treated. She was admitted with neck pain and numbness of the upper and lower limbs. A history of neck injury was noted in enquiry. In physical examination showed the sensation of pain of the upper limbs was decreased and the muscle power of the upper and lower limbs ranged from III degree to IV degree. The X-ray film and MRI suggested that there was instability of the atlanto-axial joint with stenosis of 4th-6th cervical spinal canal. The operation was satisfactory. After operation, the patient was followed up for 11 months. The physical examination indicated that sensation of the upper limbs had recovered to normal and the muscle power of the upper limbs reached IV degree and that the lower limbs reached V degree and X-ray showed bony fusion of the atlanto-axial joint. The conclusions were: 1. The stability of atlanto-axial joint was reconstructed with expanding of the spinal canal at the same time. 2. The duration, risk and cost of the therapy were reduced, and maintenance of the stability of the cervical spine throughout whole period of treatment was recommended.

  • SYNAPSES DEVELOPING PROCESS OF NEUROBLASTS AFTER ACUTE SPINAL CORD TRANSPLANTATION IN RATS

    OBJECTIVE: To explore the potential possibility of synaptic connection and 3D adhesion between fetal spinal cord cell suspension (FSCS) and host, and to observe the synapses developing process of FSCS transplantation. METHODS: Spinal cord injury model produced in 42 Wistar rats on T7 by use of modified Allen’s impact method (10 g x 5 cm); 3 days after injury, 20 microliters FSCS with a density of 1 x 10(5)/microliter prepared from E14 rat were injected into the epicenter of the traumatized cavity. Animals were sacrificed after 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 weeks of transplantation, the graft survival, its differentiation and integration with the host were observed by light and electronmicroscopic study as well as immunohistochemical assay (NF, GFAP, CGRP, 5-HT). RESULTS: In the transplantation area, the neuroblasts stretched out the terminal endings 4 weeks after implantation, followed by the presenting of the pre- and postsynaptic membrane. After 8 weeks, the dense or developed projections were observed in the pre- and postsynaptic membrane; the synaptic cleft filled with the high electron dense substance. All the spherical clear vesicles, granular vesicles, elliptical vesicles and flattened-f type vesicles were seen under the electronmicroscope. After 10 weeks, the axosomatic, dendrosomatic, dendro-dendritic, axo-axonic, dendro-axonic synapses coexisted. Light microscopy showed that the graft cell grew gradually. Immunohistochemical assay showed that NF, 5-HT, CGRP and GFAP positive fibers were in the graft. Synapses, gliafibers and blood brain barrier integrated each other. CONCLUSION: (1) The transplanted FSCS can develop mature synapses with miscellaneous synaptic vesicles in the acute injured spinal cord, host injury cavity wall may induce the FSCS into 3D adhesion. (2) Co-existence of different type of synapse and the immunohistochemistry findings indicate the possibility of synaptic connection between FSCS and host.
