[Effect of electroacupuncture on pain threshold and spinal NR2B subunit expression in a rat model of neuropathic pain].
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on pain threshold and spinal NR2B subunit expression in a rat model of neuropathic pain due to chronic compression injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve and explore the analgesic mechanism of EA. ⋯ EA may alleviate neuropathic hypersensitivity partially by inhibiting NR2B expression in the spinal cord of rats with neuropathic pain resulting from CCI of the sciatic nerve.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of the degree of muscle relaxation on motor-evoked potential elicited by transcranial electrical stimulation in spine surgery].
To study the effect of the degree of muscle relaxation on motor-evoked potential elicited by transcranial electrical stimulation in patients undergoing spine surgery. ⋯ T1 value between 10% and 15% is sufficient for MEP monitoring and allows the maintenance of good muscle relaxation during spine surgery.

Comparative Study[Effect of percutaneous vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures].
To analyze the therapeutic effects of percutaneous vertebroplasty versus percutaneous kyphoplasty for treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. ⋯ Percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty both achieve rapid and significant improvement of back pain in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, but kyphoplasty shows a better effect in terms of vertebral body height restoration and cement leakage reduction.
