abstract：BACKGROUND:High-dose fentanyl anesthesia is reported to attenuate the metabolic and endocrinal responses to surgery. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is one of the key mediators in the immunoneuroendocrine system, and may be involved in the stress responses to surgery. We studied whether high-dose fentanyl may influence the IL-1 b...
