ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To systematically assess the efficacy of anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) versus posterior laminoplasty (LAMP) for cervical ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL).@*METHODS@#PubMed and EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP were collected from 7 databases of ACCF, LAMP from 1970 to May 2018. According to the criteria, the articles were included and independently screened by two authors. The quality of the articles was assessed by using the MINORS scale (methodological index for non randomized studies). After extracting the data from the article, the JOA score, cervical curvature, operation time, bleeding volume, excellent and good rate, recovery rate, adverse events and secondary surgery were analyzed by using Review Manager 5.3 software.@*RESULTS@#Finally, a total of 22 articles with 1 678 patients were included in this Meta-analysis, with 810 patients in ACCF group and 868 patients in LAMP group. Meta analysis results showed that the ACCF group had higher postoperative JOA scores[MD=0.63, 95%CI(0.05, 1.20), = 0.03], higher excellent rate [=1.85, 95%CI (1.14, 3.02), =0.01] and higher recovery rate [=11.90, 95%CI (5.75, 18.05), =0.000 1]. But the LAMP group has a shorter operative time [MD=52.19, 95%CI (29.36, 75.03), <0.000 01], less complications [=1.56, 95%CI (1.03, 2.35), =0.04] and less reoperations [=3.73, 95%CI (1.62, 8.57), =0.002]. There was no significant different in postoperative lordosis [MD=3.15, 95%CI(-0.14, 6.43), =0.06] and blood loss[SMD= 0.26, 95%CI(-0.05, 0.57), =0.10] between two groups.@*CONCLUSION@#The recovery of functionof ACCF group was better, but operation time, complications and reoperations of LAMP group were all better than ACCF group. There was no difference in postoperative lordosis and intraoperative blood loss between two groups. However, there are some limitations in this study. Therefore, higher quality and larger sample size clinical studies are needed to further verify.

To investigate the hematological abnormality and clinical characteristics in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the hematological data of 58 SLE and the curative effects of corticosteroid and immunosuppressive agents on SLE were retrospectively analysed by using SPSS/PC software. The results showed that the incidence of hematological abnormalities in 58 cases was as follows: 50 cases of hemogram abnormality (86.2%), 41 of anemia (70.7%), 34 of thrombocytopenia (58.7%), 37 of leukopenia (63.8%). Peripheral cytopenia of every cell lineage was common in SLE. The cell abnormalities of two or three lineages were seen in 41 cases (70.7%). The initial symptoms with hematological abnormality were found in 12 cases (20.7%), 7 out of 12 cases were erroneously diagnosed as hematology diseases (12.1%). In 30 out of 58 patients, the results of bone marrow examination showed that 23 had hyperplasia (76.7%) and 7 were hypoplasia. In 25 out of 38 cases, splenomegaly (65.8%) was found by B ultrasonography. In 25 patients with SLE receiving Coombs test, 3 were positive (12.0%). PAIg increased in 16 out of 22 cases of thrombocytopenia (72.7%). 26 cases of SLE with two or three lineage cytopenia in peripheral blood were treated by corticosteroid and immunosuppressive agent. The hemogram improved in all patients including 6 cases of bone marrow hypoplasia. It is concluded that the hematological abnormalities are frequent in SLE patients, which are short of specialty. The cytopenia of two or more lineage in peripheral blood is most common when bone marrow shows hyperplastic. The therapy with corticosteroid and immunosuppressive agents is efficacious.
