Conventional alpha beta (αβ) T cells do not contribute to acute intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury in mice.

Purpose: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is associated with significant patient mortality and morbidity. The complex cascade of IRI is incompletely understood, but inflammation is known to be a key mediator. In addition to the predominant innate immune responses, previous research has also indicated that αβ T cells contribute to IRI in various organ models.

Comparison of Cleaning up Eyelids after Taking off False Eyelashes between Eye Makeup Remover Alone and Eye Makeup Remover with Ocusoft®.

Background: Hirschsprung’s disease (HD) is the most common intestinal obstruction in newborn. The Transanal Endorectal Pull -Through (TERPT) is a new surgical procedure that has rapidly replaced traditional ones.

Objective: We have reviewed early post-operative complications after TERPT of childhood HD in Thailand.

Three-Dimensional Versus Two-Dimensional Imaging in Adult Versus Pediatric Laparoscopy: A Simulator Box Study.

Aim: Three-dimensional (3D) imaging has been shown to enhance depth perception and facilitate operations in training box studies and in adult laparoscopy. However, there are no data on 3D vision in small working spaces, which are common pediatric surgery. Therefore, this study examined the impact of monoscopic versus stereoscopic visualization in large versus small working spaces in individuals with varying surgical expertise.

3-Dimensional (3D) laparoscopy improves operating time in small spaces without impact on hemodynamics and psychomental stress parameters of the surgeon.

Background And Purpose: Three-dimensional (3D) imaging, a recent technical innovation in laparoscopic surgery, has been postulated to enhance depth perception and facilitate operations. However, it has never been evaluated in conditions where the focus is close to the optical system. Thus, it is unclear whether 3D cameras can improve laparoscopic surgical performance in neonates and infants.

Resection for primary liver tumors in children: an experience of 52 cases at one institution.

Objective: To review the authors' experiences of liver resection for primary tumors in children.

Material And Method: The children who had undergone liver resection for any masses between January 1996 and December 2005 were studied. Their clinical data and pathological reports were reviewed for descriptive study.

Overexpression of hepatic inducible nitric oxide synthase in biliary atresia.

Aims: Biliary atresia (BA) is a rare and serious liver disease in infants characterized by progressive inflammatory cholangiopathy. The aims of this study were to investigate hepatic expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in BA and to associate the iNOS expression with their early therapeutic outcome.

Methods: Hepatic iNOS expression was determined using immunohistochemistry from liver biopsies of 24 BA patients, and 16 non-BA patients whose liver tissues were needed in the treatment process.
