Estradiol plays an important role in the regulation of collagen metabolism. Deficiency estradiol has been reported to be associated with degeneration many connective tissues. However, association and hypertrophy ligamentum flavum was seldom explored. Therefore, we studied effects on cultured cells from flavum. Primary cultures human obtained surgical specimens 14 patients undergoing spinal surgery were used investigate effect cell proliferation expression collagen, elastin, matrix...
Meningioma is one of the most common primary brain neoplasms with poor outcomes. The present study was aimed to determine clinical and surgical characteristics intracranial meningiomas associated tumor recurrence complications. A total 138 patients undergoing resection between Jan 2003 Dec 2014 were included followed for period at least 12 months. demographic possibly assessed, including age, gender, symptoms, pathology data, parameters, preoperative postoperative Karnofsky Performance Scale...
The purpose of this study is to identify the biomarkers for early diagnosis Parkinson's disease (PD) by multi-omics joint analysis, so as PD, and help clinicians make treatment.In study, mice are taken subjects. model PD established, then lymphocyte, striatum, substantia nigra protein proteolysis extracted. After that, experiments imprinting 418O labeling carried out. Mass Spectrometry (MS) analysis technology mainly used proteomics analyze quantitative qualitative situation differential...
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating neurological disorder with an enormous impact on individual's life and society. A reliable reproducible animal model of SCI crucial to have deeper understanding SCI. We developed large-animal spinal compression integration multiple prognostic factors that would applications in humans.Fourteen human-like sized pigs underwent at T8 by implantation inflatable balloon catheter. In addition basic neurophysiological recording somatosensory motor evoked...
In Brief Study Design. Case report. Objective. We report a rare case of postradiation sarcoma the cervical spine 30 years after treatment for thyroid cancer. Summary Background Data. The reported is 66-year-old man with history cancer treated surgery and radiotherapy at age 36 years. He was disease-free years, but then developed left upper limb weakness numbness. Magnetic resonance imaging showed homogeneously enhanced mass lesion cystic parts involving C4 vertebral body occupying side...
Abstract Background Mitigating residual cerebral aneurysm and parent artery trauma during the microsurgical treatment of aneurysms, specifically clipping, is paramount importance to enhance patient outcomes. This study examines effectiveness intraoperative indocyanine green videoangiography (ICG-VA) as a strategic tool attenuate these surgical complications. Materials Methods We conducted retrospective analysis medical records who underwent surgery in our institution from January 2012 July...
Background: Midline lumbar fusion (MIDLF) using cortical bone trajectory (CBT) is an alternative method of spinal fusion. It useful for reduction not only approach-related morbidity but also osteoporosis. This study aimed to present our experience with MIDLF, and focused on survey postoperative wound pain intensity outcome assessment. Methods: We retrospectively collected patients who met criteria elderly (age more than 65 years old), spondylolisthesis, disc herniation, or stenosis, those...
In this paper, a microfabricated inductive coil comprising of 125-turn windings and MnZn-based magnetic core in volume 200 mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sup> is presented for the neural stimulation spinal cord. The winding with parallel-linkage design instead typical serial-linkage one proposed not only to provide better flexibility current mode driving circuit but also simplify fabrication process 3-D coil, which can...
Acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO), also known as Ogilvie's syndrome, consists of massive dilatation in the absence distal mechanical obstruction. It develops hospitalized patients and is associated with a variety surgical medical conditions, such autonomic dysregulation motor activity, after major surgery, electrolyte imbalance, or systemic infection. Conservative management pharmacological therapy neostigmine usually sufficient to control ACPO, but colonoscopy for intestinal...
