[Neuromuscular effects of cisatracurium besylate in obese patients].
To explore the neuromuscular effects of cisatracurium besylate in morbidly obese patients when dosed according to real body weight under total intravenous anesthesia with propofol. ⋯ When dosed according to real body weight, onset time of cisatracurium is shorter while clinical duration and recovery index are prolonged in morbidly obese patients compared with normal weight counterparts.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study[Comparison of clinical efficacies of single segment transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion with cage versus autogenous morselized bone for degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis: a prospective randomized controlled study].
To compare the clinical efficacies of single segment transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) with cage versus autogenous morselized bone for degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis. ⋯ For degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis, usage of interbody cage is more effective in terms of recovery of intervertebral space and foraminal height compared with usage of bone graft. However it brings no better clinical efficacy while the usage of autogenous morselized bone is more cost-effective. Two grafting methods yield similar overall clinical outcomes.

[Changes of sagittal balance of cervical spine after open-door expansive laminoplasty].
To explore the changes of sagittal balance of cervical spine after open-door expansive laminoplasty. ⋯ The sagittal balance of cervical spine significantly changes after open-door expansive laminoplasty with forward tilting of cervical vertebra. And compensation occurs by excessive high-strength contraction of posterior muscles to maintain lordosis in upper cervical spine. A higher pre-OP T1-Slope affects the outcomes of open-door expansive laminoplasty.

[Early diagnosis of painful diabetic neuropathy by corneal confocal microscopy].
To explore the early diagnosis of painful diabetic neuropathy by observing the alterations in corneal innervation with corneal confocal microscopy. ⋯ CCM provides a sensitive and noninvasive modality of detecting small nerve fiber damage in patients with PFN. And these abnormalities may be a sensitive predictor for the presence of pain in diabetic neuropathy patients.
