AlM:To observe clinical effects between the laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASlK ) surgery and the laser subepithelial keratomileusis ( LASEK ) surgery as the second operation after an unsuccessful LASlK surgery.METHODS:Forty-nine patients (98 eyes) with refractive regression after LASlK operation received the second surgery. All patients were divided into two groups:group A and B. Group A (48 eyes of 24 patients) received LASlK surgery and group B ( 50 eyes of 25 patients ) received LASEK surgery. lnspect the main parameters included visual acuity, refraction, corneal curvature, and the total value of high-aberration after 1wk, 1mo and 1a, t-test of groups was used as statistical analysis method.RESULTS: There was statistically significant (P<0. 05) between the two groups in visual acuity after 1wk. There was no statistically significant between the two groups in visual acuity after 1mo, and there was also no statistically significant between the two groups in visual acuity, average spherical equivalent refractive degree, average corneal curvature, and the total value of high-aberration after one year (P>0. 05). There developed one case of epithelium in growth after LASlK surgery, and one case of haze Ⅱ after LASEK surgery.CONCLUSlON: Both LASlK and LASEK surgery can obtain satisfactory therapeutic results after an unsuccessful LASlK surgery.

Objective To compare the therapeutic results of laparoscopic and open treatment for choledocholithiasis. Methods A prospective comparison was conducted between 29 cases of laparoscopic choledocholithotomy and 35 cases of open choledocholithotomy in terms of stone removal,operative time,hospitalization day,hospitalization cost and postoperative complications. Results Stone removal was achieved in 28/29 patients by a laparoscopic approach and in 32/35 patients by a open approach( ? 2=0 71, P =0 399);average operative time was (178 3?32 4) min in laparoscopic approach and (145 8?27 1)min in open approach( t =4 27, P =0 01);the patients in laparoscopic procedures had flatus in (20 8?2 9) hour and those in open procedures did in (58 2?4 9) hours( t =37 8, P 0 05);no major complication was found in laparoscopic approach. Conclusions Laparoscopic choledocholithotomy is safe and effective and it is superier to open treatment.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and techniques of laparoscopic biliary re-operations. Methods Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 13 patients with bile duct stones who already had undergone biliary tract operations. Results Laparoscopic choledochotomy was successfully completed in 12 cases, while a conversion to open surgery was required in 1 case. The success rate of laparoscopic surgery was 92.3% (12/13). The operation time was (101～300) min, with a mean of 155 min. No intra- or post- operative complications occurred. Conclusions Laparoscopic biliary re-operations are feasible and experiences are needed to ensure the success of surgery.

Objective To assess the feasibility of combined laparoscopic multi-organ surgery in clinical appliation. Methods 48 combined laparoscopic multi-organ surgeries performed from August 2000 to November 2001 were analyzed. Results All laparoscopic procedures were successfully completed.No one needed to be converted to laparotomy and had postoperative complications.Postoperative stay was similar to that of patients under laparoscopic mono-organ surgery in the same time. Conclusions Combined laparoscopic multi-organ surgery can be performed conveniently.It offers significant benefits to patients such as decreased postoperative pain,reduced trauma to the abdominal wall and cost-saving.

The reactivity of human preformed natural antibodies (PNAbs) with various porcine pancreatic cells and its isotypes was investigated. Eighteen serum samples from patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and 20 serum samples from healthy human subjects were collected. The frozen sections of the pig pancreas were incubated with these sera, and subsequently incubated with FITC-conjugated goat antihuman IgG and IgM monoclonal antibodies. The reactivity of human PNAbs with various porcine pancreatic cells was determined by indirect immunofluorescence staining technique. The results showed that 55.6 % of IDDM patients and 55.0 % of healthy human individuals contained PNAbs against porcine endocrine cells. However, the percentage of strongly reacting sera in the patient group was significantly increased as compared with that in the control group. All used sera from IDDM patients and 95 % of sera from healthy controls could react to one or more of the various pancreatic cell types, including: endocrine cells, exocrine cells, vascular endothelial cells, ductal epithelial cells and macrophages. The isotypes of PNAbs contained both IgG and IgM. In view of strongly positive reactivity of PNAbs with various porcine pancreatic cells, pretransplantly cross-matching test and graft pretreatment may be necessary for survival of islet transplants.

Objective To study the possible relationships between expression of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)2,9 and the pathogenesis of preeclampsia in which trophoblast invasion is impaired. Methods MMP-2,9 expression were detected by immunohistochemistry streptavidin-biotin complex (SABC)method in 20 normal term placentae and 20 preeclampsia placentae,respectively.In addition, mRNAs for MMP-2,9 were analyzed by real time PCR in both groups.Results The intensities of both MMP-2 and MMP-9 immunostaining in preeclampsia placentae were significantly declined compared to those of normal term placentae(P

Objective To test the hypothesis that homocysteine can decrease MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression in cultured trophoblasts of early pregnancy and that homocysteine can prevent trophoblasts invasion in the early stage of preeclampsia.Methods Cytotrophoblasts from early pregnancy were isolated and cultured.Trophoblasts were treated with or without Hcy(1 mmol/L)for 48 hour,and real time RT-PCR and gelatin zymography were used to quantify the mRNA and protease activity of MMP-2,-9.Results Treatment with Hcy(1 mmol/L)induced a decrease in MMP-2 mRNA by 21% and MMP-9 mRNA by 11%.At protein level MMP-2 expression decreased 14% and MMP-9 expression decreased 52% compared with control.Conclusions Homocysteine can decrease MMP-2,-9 expression in trophoblasts of early pregnancy and influence its invasion process.
