[The application of modified classification of the aortic dissection].
To determine the indication, optimal operative procedures, plan and the estimation of the prognosis depending on the subtype of aortic dissection defined by the extension and extent of dissection. ⋯ The subtype of aortic dissection is much useful in determining the optimal procedure, operative indication and plan, estimating the prognosis.

[Application of endovascular thoracic branched aortic stent-grafts in the treatment of aortic arch dissection].
To report the initial clinical experience of endovascular thoracic branched stent grafts in the treatment of aortic arch dissections involving the left subclavian artery. ⋯ It demonstrates that it is possible to apply the technical feasibility of endovascular thoracic branched aortic stent graft to repair the intimal tear of dissection just beyond the left subclavian artery.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study[Effects of glutamine granules on immunofunction in trauma patients: a double-blind randomized controlled, multi-center clinical trail with 120 patients].
To evaluate the effect of glutamine granules on immunofunction in severe burns and trauma patients. ⋯ Taking glutamine granules could increase plasma GLN concentration, enhance body immunofunction, and using glutamine granules is safe.

Comparative Study[Prospective comparison of functional magnetic resonance imaging and intraoperative motor evoked potential monitoring for cortical mapping of primary motor areas].
To compare the relation between the preoperative functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) technique and intraoperative motor evoked potential (MEP) monitoring for cortical mapping of primary motor cortex in patients with tumors near the central area. And to determine whether non-invasive preoperative fMRI can provide results equivalent to those achieved with the invasive neurosurgical "gold standard". ⋯ BOLD fMRI was a high sensitive and reliable technique to locate the position of the primary motor areas and their spatial relation with adjacent tumor, especially for the presurgical planning in patients with central area brain tumor.

[Allograft replacement in management of giant cell tumor of bone: a report of 77 cases].
To evaluate the functional outcome and the complications of allograft replacement in management of giant cell tumors of bone. ⋯ Allografts offer many types of reconstruction for bony defects after tumor resection. The functional results are comparable to other methods of reconstruction, and once incorporated by the host, offer the advantage of longevity. It is also a method with high complication, and decreasing the complications could improve the functional score. Less resection could get better reconstruction and better function, less margin resulted at the same time. The risk of recurrence increases when less surgical margin achieves. The main end-result-influencing factor is local recurrence.
