Length-dependent regulation of left ventricular function in coronary surgery patients.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Dynorphin A in the spinal cord is considered to contribute to nociceptive stimuli. However, it has not yet been determined whether activation of the spinal dynorphinergic system under nociceptive stimuli plays a role in direct acceleration of the ascending nociceptive pathway. In this study, the authors inve...
