Venous valve plays an important role in regulating the venous flow,especially in preventing the blood backflow.It has heen observed that when deep vein thrombosis and dissolved,the valves in the lesions had been destroied or dysfunction.The mechanism of damage of vein valve has not been fully clarified,but as we know,it's common that the inflammatory reaction,due to many unfavorable factors,can cause thrombosis.On the other hand,deep vein thrombosis could bring out the inflammatory reaction as well.So the author will review the development of researching of the destruction of venous valves in recent years.

? Diabetic retinopathy is one of those significant complications of diabetes.With the increasing number of diabetic patients, blind caused by diabetic retinopathy is a serious threat to human health which cannot be neglected, but there is no highly effective treatment for it. Consequently, early detection and preventive treatment for it are important.Currently, studies have found that urine microalbumin had a close relation with diabetic retinopathy and that urine microalbumin might play an important role in early predicting of diabetic retinopathy. The review is about the diagnostic significance of urine microalbumin test for early diabetic retinopathy.

Many epidemiological data and study of experiment show that adminstration of NSAIDs in long term can prevent the carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer, its mecanism can be associated with the inhibition of PG which is produced by Cox 2 way, in addition, promoting apoptosis and anti oxidation were also one of the mecanisms of NSAIDs, the new selective Cox 2 inhibitor without gastrointestinal side effect would become the chemopreventive drugs of colorectal tumor.

The cancer stem cell hypothesis posits that cancer stem cells,which are rare among the tumor cell population and share many common properties with normal stem cells,and have been positively identified and successfully isolated from some cancers,are responsible for tumorigenesis and implicated in multistage cancer progression,particularly with respect to metastasis.A better understanding may provide insights into the development of cancer stem cell-targeting therapeutic strategies.The examines what is known regarding cancer stem cells' concept,comparison with normal stem cell,potential origins,assays for isolation and their roles in metastasis.

Objective To compare the current therapeutic effects between endovenous radiofrequency treatment and conventional surgery for lower limb chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) ,and summarize operative skills and clinical value of endovenous radiofreq uency treatment on CVI .Methods Data of 45 limbs of 41 patients treated by endovenous radiofrequency treatment (endovenous ra-diofrequencytreatmentgroup)and20limbsof20patientsbytraditionalsurgery(traditionalsurgerygroup)wereanalyzedandcom-pared in terms of operation time ,postoperative pain ,postoperative hospitalized duration ,complications ,and one-year recurrence rate .Results Endovenous radiofrequency treatment group had less postoperative pain and shorter postoperarive hospitalized dura-tion than traditional surgery group(P<0 .05) .The operation time had no significant differences between two groups (P>0 .05) . The two groups had few complications and had no recurrence in one year .Conclusion As a minimally invasive treatment for vari-cose veins ,endovenous radiofrequency treatment has less trauma ,rapid recovery ,safe and effective ,and it is worthy to be recommen-ded .

Objective To morphologically observe the changes of cornea tissue a long period after myopic LASIK with confocal microscopy. Methods 34 patients (68 eyes) from April 1999 to July 2004, who had undertook LASIK in our Hospital, were involved in present study. The confocal microscopy was employed to examine the changes of cornea tissue. The average spherical equivalence was -6.81?2.88D (ranged from -3.0 to -16D). The average age of the patients was 24.17?5.93 (ranged from 18 to 42). The average follow-up time was 39?3 months (ranged from 6 to 73 months). Results The Micro-folds at the Bowman's layer were found in 68 eyes (100%), as well as variously reflectivity particles located at the interface in all eyes examined after operation. The density of high reflective particles did not decrease significantly with time. In the middle stroma, the mean depth of acellular area was 44.01?10.67?m in all 68 eyes (100%). The appearance of morphology of subbasel corneal nerve fiber bundles after operation recovered. Conclusions Morphologic changes were found in central cornea. Acellular area, micro-folds as well as variously reflectivity particles located at the interface in all eyes existed in the central cornea for long time.
