[Continuous surveillance of antimicrobial resistance among nosocomial gram-negative bacilli from intensive care units in China].
To investigate the change of antimicrobial resistance among nosocomial gram-negative bacilli, especially those of Enterobacteriaceae isolated from intensive care units from 1994 to 2001 in China. ⋯ Imipenem remains highly active against Enterobacteriaceae, but the activities of other antibiotics have decreased in recent years.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[The effects of general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia on the stress response in thoracic surgery].
To study the effects of general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia (GEA) and pure general anesthesia (GA) on the surgical stress response and cytokines in pulmonary surgery. ⋯ Pulmonary surgery performed with two different anesthetic techniques causes inflammatory cytokine responses. The additional epidural anesthesia doesn't influence cytokine production. It incompletely inhibits the stress response in the early phase. IL-6 and cortisol may have some effects on each other.
