BACKGROUND:Sarcopenia is a progressive,generalized skeletal muscle disease that is closely related to the occurrence of osteoarthritis,fractures,limb disability and death in the elderly.Establishing animal models of sarcopenia is essential to understand the pathophysiology of sarcopenia and to identify effective treatment strategies. OBJECTIVE:To review the evaluation criteria of mouse models of sarcopenia and the modeling methods of mouse models of sarcopenia,and to analyze and compare the advantages and disadvantages of various modeling methods,in order to provide reference for the research and diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia. METHODS:"Sarcopenia,skeletal muscle aging,mouse model,animal model"in Chinese and English were used as Chinese and English search terms,respectively.The search formula was"(sarcopenia OR skeletal muscle aging)AND(mouse model OR animal model)."CNKI,WanFang and PubMed were searched for related articles published from January 2010 and October 2022.A total of 59 articles were finally included for analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There is a faster modeling time in SAMP8 mice and the type of muscle atrophy is consistent with that of patients with sarcopenia.Therefore,it is an ideal model.Although the surgical method can successfully induce muscle atrophy,it requires precise surgical operation,which is difficult and time-consuming.Hindlimb suspension modeling in mice is similar to that of the elderly and can be regarded as an effective model of senile sarcopenia.Although reagent injection molding is simple to perform,both the dose and number of days of administration of reagents are not clear and need to be further investigated.Transgenic mouse models are less commonly used and their model stability needs further study.The search for a mouse model with low cost,short time consumption and high simulation of human sarcopenia is still a future research direction.

Objective To explore the application value of minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of lumbar spinal tuberculosis, and to provide reference for clinical treatment of spinal tuberculosis. Methods Data of 252 cases of patients with lumbar spinal tuberculosis treated by conservative treatment in our hospital from January 2005 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into four groups on the basis of systemic application of antituberculosis chemotherapy. A total of 154 patients were given simple local chemotherapy of percutaneous placement of focus catheter (group A), 48 patients were received percutaneous perfusion drainage and local chemotherapy (group B), 32 patients underwent percutaneous puncture catheter debridement combined with local chemotherapy (group C), and 18 patients were given percutaneous debridement and internal fixation combined with local chemotherapy catheter (group D). Data of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) score and the modified MacNab criteria were recorded before operation and at the end of the follow-up in four groups of patients. Results Of the 252 patients, 228 were followed up and 214 patients achieved clinical cure. The lost access were15 cases in group A, 5 cases in group B, 2 cases in group C and 2 cases in group D. The total rate of lost visit was 9.52%. The follow up duration ranged from 25-126 months. The mean duration of follow-up was 68(60, 76) months. A total 214 cases reached the standard of clinical cure. No complications (retrograde infection and cross infection) were found in all patients during treatment. ESR was statistically decreased to (7.26 ± 3.43) mm/1 h at the last follow-up (t=35.06, P=0.023) compared with that (44.96 ± 12.42) mm/1 h before operation. The VAS and ODI were 1.5(1, 3) and 30(25, 35)% at the last follow-up, which were significantly improved than those [7.5(7.0, 8.0) and 60(55, 65)%] before operation (Z=13.641 and 6.806, P<0.05). According to the improved MacNab criteria, the overall excellent and good rates for patients were 86.4%(197/228) at the last follow-up. Conclusion According to the stepped care and personalized treatment, patients of lumbar tuberculosis are preoperative comprehensive evaluated, and most patients can achieve long-term stability and a better clinical efficacy after interventional and minimally invasive treatment.
