[One stage posterior vertebral column resection for the treatment of thorciclumbar tuberculosis with kyphotic deformity].
To evaluate the clinical outcome of one stage posterior vertebral column resection in patients with spinal tuberculosis combined with kyphotic deformity. ⋯ One stage posterior vertebral column resection for the treatment of spinal tuberculosis with kyphotic deformity is safe and effective. Because this procedure is highly technical, the surgeon must be familiar with the pathoanatomy and the operation must be carefully done.

[Transthoracic echocardiography in transcatheter closure of atrial septal aneurysm combined with secoundum-type atrial septal defect].
To explore the value of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in transcatheter closure of atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) combined with secoundum-type atrial septal defect (ASD). ⋯ Transcatheter closure is feasible in patients with ASA combined with secoundum-type ASD, and extra attention must be paid to the specialty. TTE is very important in case selection before transcatheter closure, and it may be used to monitor and guide the procedure during transcatheter closure.

[Alterations of myelin basic protein concentration in the plasma and ultrastructure in the spinal cord after continuous intrathecal ropivacaine injection in rats].
To explore the alterations of serum of myelin basic protein (MBP) concentration in the plasma and ultrastructure in the spinal cord after continuous intrathecal injection of different ropivacaine concentrations in rats. ⋯ The spinal cord ultrastructure is selectively vulnerable after intrathecal 1.0% ropivacaine injection, which may be one of the important pathophysiological bases for local anesthetic neurotoxicity. MBP may serve as a sensitive and specific indicator of spinal cord damage after intra-thecal administration of ropivacaine.

[Investigation and analysis of the incidence of awareness during general anesthesia].
To investigate the incidence of awareness during general anesthesia in patients undergoing surgery. ⋯ Intraoperative recollections are rare complication of general anesthesia, and are associated with the increased ASA physical status. Age and sex do not influence the incidence of awareness. Dreaming during anesthesia is related to younger females and propofol maintenance.

[Effect of intrathecal pumping tramadol on the immune function in rats with formalin pain].
To evaluate the effect of intrathecal pumping tramadol on cell-mediated immunity in rats with formalin inflammatory pain. ⋯ Intrathecal pumping tramadol has significantly antinociceptive effect. Intrathecal pumping higher dosage tramadol (50microg/h) suppresses T lymphocyte proliferation and alteres T lymphocyte subset phenotype but does not affect NK cell activity. General analgesic dosage tramadol (25 and 12.5 microg/h) has no effect on the immune function.
