[Risk factors and prognosis of contrast-induced nephropathy with renal dysfunction].
To investigate the risk factors, clinical characteristics, and prognosis of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients with renal dysfunction. ⋯ Higher volume of contrast-medium is a risk factor of CIN in patients with renal dysfunction. Pre-angiography Scr level and the contrast-medium volume are correlated with the prognosis of CIN in such patients.

[Role of procalcitonin in the differentiation and surveillance of systemic inflammatory response syndrome].
To evaluate the discrimination of serum procalcitonin (PCT) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) between patients with sepsis and non-infectious inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and the prediction power of clinical outcome. ⋯ PCT and IL-6 are more reliable indicators to differentiate sepsis and non-infectious SIRS than the conventional inflammatory markers, and correlate with the disease severity. PCT levels are significantly correlated with ICU length of stay.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of neostigmine on atracurium-induced neuromuscular blockage in patients pretreated with magnesium sulphate].
To determine the effect of neostigmine on antagonizing atracurium-induced neuromuscular blockage with sulfate magnesium pretreatment. ⋯ Neostigmine-induced neuromuscular recovery can be attenuated in patients pretreated with magnesium sulfate.

[Cerebral revascularization in treatment of intractable aneurysms].
To evaluate the effectiveness of cerebral revascularization in the treatment of intractable aneurysms and to discuss the indications, surgical techniques, and the outcome of the revascularization. ⋯ Extracranial-to-intracranial bypass followed by parent vessel occlusion is a safe and effective method to treat intractable ICA aneurysms. Radical artery as graft can offer high-flow revascularization with less complications. Combined surgical and endovascular treatment might be the future direction for the treatment of the difficult aneurysms.

[Gamma knife radiosurgery for cavernous malformations].
To evaluate the efficacy of Gamma knife surgery (GKS) in treating cavernous malformation (CM). ⋯ It is feasible to treat small and surgically high risk CMs by radiosurgery. The treatment has to be prudent in an acute bleeding and symptomatic progression. Optimal treatment timing and dose planning are prerequisites to reduce radiation-related complications. GKS is safe and effective to control the epilepsy caused by CMs, and also to bring down the rebleeding rate after a latency interval of several years.
