Single-Segment Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Nucleus Excision on the Stability of Lumbar Segmental Sagittal Plane.

At present, lumbar disc herniation has become a problem that plagues people's health, life safety, and social and economic development. Among them, the research of lumbar disc nucleus pulposus tissue is the focus of the treatment of lumbar disc diseases. At present, the treatment methods of lumbar disc herniation are divided into conservative treatment and surgical treatment, among which surgical treatment can be divided into open surgery and minimally invasive surgery. Surgical treatment to remove the nucleus pulposus from the disc by fenestration includes conventional ablation of the nucleus pulposus and microscopic lumbar discs. This treatment is effective, but it has a great impact on the stabilization mechanism of the spine, with large soft tissue damage and large blood loss, which can easily cause nerve damage and postdural adhesions. At the same time, single-segment lumbar discectomy has also been gradually applied to the treatment of this disease. Under this, this paper studies single-segment lumbar disc nucleus pulposus resection. The lumbar nucleus resection is performed in a single segment in the physiological load area, which can greatly ensure the stability of the sagittal plane of the lumbar spine. In order to better understand the postoperative rehabilitation and clinical effects of single-segment lumbar discectomy, as well as the changes in the sagittal plane of the lumbar vertebrae before and after the operation, so as to provide a reference for further improving the quality of life of patients, this paper uses questionnaire survey and data analysis methods. According to the results of the questionnaire survey, compared with other operations, single-segment lumbar discectomy is more stable in the sagittal plane of the lumbar spine within the physiological load range, and there is less displacement. The displacement may be caused or influenced by different kinds of factors such as heavy loads or manual labor. In addition, most patients have less abnormal pain after surgery, indicating that the surgery has a certain effect on the treatment of the disease, and there are fewer abnormalities after surgery.

Assessment to the Antifungal Effects in vitro and the Ocular Pharmacokinetics of Solid-Lipid Nanoparticle in Rabbits.

INTRODUCTION: Fungal keratitis (FK) remains a severe sight-threatening disease, and case management is difficult due to ocular intrinsic barriers and drug shortages. Econazole (ECZ), a broad-spectrum antifungal agent, is limited in ocular applications due to the poor water solubility and strong irritant property. METHODS: We successfully prepared solid-lipid nanoparticle-based ECZ eye drops (E-SLNs) by microemulsion method, and the physicochemical properties of E-SLNs were investigated. Corneal permeability, antifungal ability against Fusarium spp., irritation and bioavailability compared to ECZ Suspension (E-Susp) were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS: E-SLNs were a uniform and stable system which had an average particle size of 19 nm and a spherical morphology. E-SLNs also exhibited controlled release, enhanced antifungal activity without irritation. The pharmacokinetic analysis in vivo confirmed that E-SLNs showed an improved ocular bioavailability and the drug concentration in the cornea were above minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for 3 h after single administration. CONCLUSION: The E-SLNs colloid system is a promising therapeutic approach for fungal keratitis and could serve as a candidate strategy for other ocular diseases.
