Abstract
A color-temperature compensating system with an electrically controllable liquid-crystal filter and a color sensor mounted on a video camera has been developed for color image sensing. The filter contains two guest-host liquid-crystal devices with dichroic dyes that have strong light absorption for shorter-wavelength light; two devices are necessary because of the spectral difference between the sun and an incandescent lamp as light sources. The filter's absorption is continuously controlled by the voltage applied to the filter. Because the filter is driven according to spectral information about the illumination detected by the color sensor, the color balance of the video image to be sensed can be compensated automatically and rapidly. This is especially useful for video image shooting in which a video camera experiences changes in illumination color temperatures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic recurrence is seen in approximately 40% of patients undergoing hepatectomy for colorectal metastases. This study was designed to assess the risks and clinical benefits of repeat hepatectomy for those patients. METHODS Twenty-six patients underwent repeat hepatectomy for hepatic recurrence, and their clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for operative morbidity and mortality, performance level, and survival. RESULTS There was no operative mortality after repeat hepatectomy. Operative bleeding was significantly increased in the second hepatectomy; but operating time, duration of hospital stay, and performance status after the second hepatectomy were comparable with those of the initial hepatectomy. The median survival time from the second hepatectomy was 31 months, and the 3- and 5-year survival rates were 62% and 32%, respectively. A short disease-free interval (6 months or less) between the initial hepatectomy and diagnosis of hepatic recurrence in the remnant liver was significantly associated with poor survival after the second hepatectomy. CONCLUSIONS Repeat resection contributed to clinical benefits for selected patients with hepatic recurrence after the initial hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases. However, appearance of hepatic recurrence within 6 months or less after the initial hepatectomy is a poor prognostic factor for repeat hepatectomy.

Abstract
AIMS In order to assess the long-term influence of high-flux hemodiafiltration (HDF) on hemodynamic stability in patients with dialysis-related amyloidosis. METHODS HDF with high-flux dialyzers was performed for a year in 11 patients who had undergone the surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. Patients were divided into two groups, and for each group synthetic or cellulose membrane dialyzers were applied. RESULTS A year after the exchange from standard hemodialysis to HDF with cellulose high-flux dialyzers, beta(2)-microglobulin was decreased (45+/-3 to 28+/-2 mg/l, n = 5, p< 0.05), but plasma non-refilling ratio was not altered. However, the continuance of synthetic high-flux HDF for a year decreased plasma non-refilling ratio (17+/-5 to 7+/-4%, p<0.05), hypotensive episodes (4.3+/-0.6 to 2.5+/-0.4 sessions/month, p<0.05) and muscle cramps (3.8+/-0.5 to 1.8+/-0.5 sessions/month, p<0.01) in addition to the decrements in serum beta(2)-microglobulin (45+/-5 to 33+/-2 mg/l, n = 6, p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Although the study on a large number of patients may be required to draw a final conclusion, our present data suggest that biocompatible high-flux HDF is uniquely suited for dialysis-related amyloidosis.

Abstract
An extremely rare case of a lymphoepithelial cyst (LEC) of the pancreas is described herein. A pancreatic cystic tumor was initially detected in a 50-year-old man at a medical checkup. On admission, his serum carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 level was 8100 U/ml and a computed tomography scan revealed a well-circumscribed multilocular cystic tumor in the pancreatic head and body. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed no communication between the pancreatic ducts and the tumor. A distal pancreatectomy with lymph node dissection was performed because the lesion was suspected to be a mucinous cystadenoma or cystadenocarcinoma of the pancreas. However, histological examination revealed that the cyst was lined by stratified squamous epithelium and surrounded by lymphoid tissue. thereby confirming the diagnosis of LEC of the pancreas. The superficial layer of squamous epithelium and the cystic contents were found to be immunohistologically positive for CA19-9. Establishing a preoperative diagnosis of LEC is quite difficult because it resembles other cystic neoplasms of the pancreas in radiographic features and is frequently associated with an elevation of serum tumor markers such as CA19-9.

Abstract
Microwave coagulation therapy (MCT) is one of the treatment modalities for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A 67-year-old man with liver cirrhosis underwent MCT during a laparotomy for a deeply located HCC (2.5 cm in diameter) at the border of the anterior and posterior segments of the right hepatic lobe. Two weeks after MCT, he complained of abdominal fullness. Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) was diagnosed because he had massive ascites and an echogenic mass in the portal vein on abdominal ultrasonography. PVT was successfully treated by fibrinolytic therapy with a selective infusion of urokinase via the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). There have been few reports on PVT as a complication of MCT. Attention should be paid to the possible occurrence of PVT as a critical complication after MCT for liver tumors adjacent to the portal vein. Fibrinolytic therapy via the SMA is thus considered to be an effective approach for PVT after MCT.

Abstract
The influence of various phenolic compounds on the lactoperoxidase (LPO)/hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-catalyzed oxidation of biochemical reductants such as reduced beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), reduced beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) or reduced glutathione (GSH) was investigated by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Micromolar quantities of phenolic compounds such as 17beta-estradiol, phenol, and p-chlorophenol enhanced the LPO/H2O2-catalyzed oxidation of NAD(P)H or GSH to generate a large amount of superoxide radical (O2*-) or glutathione thiyl radical (GS*), while, phenolic compounds such as quercetin and Trolox C greatly suppressed the generation of O2*- and GS*. In order to elucidate the effects of phenolic compounds on the generation of O2*- and GS*, their quenching activities for a stable radical, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), were investigated by ESR spectroscopy. 17beta-Estradiol, phenol, and p-chlorophenol showed very weak scavenging activities for DPPH, but quercetin and Trolox C showed strong activities. This suggests that the ability of phenolic compounds to enhance LPO/H2O2-catalyzed oxidation of NAD(P)H or GSH relates inversely to their ability to quench DPPH. That is, phenolic compounds having weak quenching activity against DPPH may enhance the LPO/H2O2-catalyzed oxidation of NAD(P)H or GSH to generate a large amount of O2*- or GS*.

Abstract
Host immunomodulation through T cell action may play a pivotal role in determining the response to interferon (IFN) therapy for chronic hepatitis C. We examined whether the early changes in the host immune response were helpful in predicting the final effect in 31 patients with chronic hepatitis C receiving IFN. IFN treatment significantly reduced the serum levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and E-selectin, and significantly increased those of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and interleukin-2 receptor alpha (IL-2Ralpha) in the first 7-10 days. Serum levels of these immunological parameters did not correlate with serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) when evaluated with either absolute values or relative values (over pre-treatment value), implying that our results are not just secondary to improvement in hepatic inflammation. The relative changes (Delta) in these parameters reflected the long-term response to IFN therapy, i.e. the lower the change, the more effective the therapy was. Among these serum parameters, DeltaIL-2Ralpha within the first 7-10 days of IFN treatment was the most useful parameter in predicting the response to therapy. In conclusion, a dynamic immunomodulation during the early phase of IFN therapy may determine the subsequent long-term response to IFN therapy.

Abstract
The locomotion of Amoeba proteus has been investigated by algorithms evaluating correlation dimension and Lyapunov spectrum developed in the field of nonlinear science. It is presumed by these parameters whether the random behavior of the system is stochastic or deterministic. For the analysis of the nonlinear parameters, n-dimensional time-delayed vectors have been reconstructed from a time series of periphery and area of A. proteus images captured with a charge-coupled-device camera, which characterize its random motion. The correlation dimension analyzed has shown the random motion of A. proteus is subjected only to 3-4 macrovariables, though the system is a complex system composed of many degrees of freedom. Furthermore, the analysis of the Lyapunov spectrum has shown its largest exponent takes positive values. These results indicate the random behavior of A. proteus is chaotic and deterministic motion on an attractor with low dimension. It may be important for the elucidation of the cell locomotion to take account of nonlinear interactions among a small number of dynamics such as the sol-gel transformation, the cytoplasmic streaming, and the relating chemical reaction occurring in the cell.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is a treatment that preserves the gallbladder. Problems after ESWL treatment include stone recurrence and the development of biliary symptoms. METHODS Two hundred and sixty-two patients with cholesterol-type gallstones, the best indication for ESWL treatment, and 42 control patients with cholesterol-type gallstones who received no treatment entered this study. We evaluated the factors associated with recurrence of gallstones after stone clearance and the development of biliary symptoms after ESWL treatment. RESULTS The 3-, 5- and 7-year cumulative probabilities of gallstone recurrence were 20.6, 27.1 and 33.1%, respectively, with the recurrence probability significantly lower in patients with good gallbladder contractility. In patients with recurrence, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) treatment was effective. In 69 patients with residual gallstones, the 3-, 5- and 7-year cumulative risks of biliary symptoms were 17.3, 24.9 and 30.5%, respectively. With residual gallstones, the risk of biliary symptoms developing was significantly lower in patients with a < or = 3 mm fragment size at the end of ESWL treatment and in those treated consistently with UDCA for 6 months or more after treatment with ESWL. The risk of biliary symptoms was significantly lower in ESWL-treated patients with residual stones who had a < or = 3 mm fragment size after treatment compared to those of control patients. CONCLUSIONS Ursodeoxycholic acid was effective in clearing stones in patients with gallstone recurrence. In patients with residual stones, the fragmentation of stones to < or = 3 mm and UDCA administration effectively reduced the risk of subsequent biliary symptoms.

Abstract
The membrane transport mechanism for regulating the intracellular pH value (pHi) was investigated in mouse distal colon crypt cells. pHi was measured by microfluorometry in an isolated crypt fragment loaded with the pH-sensitive fluoroprobe, 2',7'-bis-(2-carboxyethyl)-5-(6) carboxyfluorescein. The pHi recovery process after acid loading induced by a 40 mM NH4Cl prepulse was almost totally dependent on Na+ in both the presence and absence of CO2/HCO3- in the perfusion solution. In the CO2/HCO3(-)-free, HEPES-buffered solution, amiloride partially inhibited the pHi recovery rate from acid loading with an ED50 value of 15 microM and maximum inhibition of 83%. In a CO2/HCO3- solution, amiloride inhibited the pHi recovery rate with an ED50 value of 18 microM, which was similar to that in the HEPES-buffered solution, while the rate of pHi recovery remaining in the presence of the maximum effective concentration of amiloride was significantly larger than that in the HEPES-buffered solution. The Na+-dependent pHi recovery from the acid loading was significantly less (by 18%) in the presence of forskolin. These results suggest that the pHi recovery from acid loading was mediated by 1) amiloride-sensitive Na+/H+ exchanger, 2) the amiloride-insensitive Na+/H+ exchanger, and 3) the Na+- and HCO3(-)-dependent acid extruder. The pHi recovery could be inhibited by cAMP.

Abstract
Marginal ulceration is a serious problem after both standard pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD). The relationship between this complication and the method of reconstruction after PPPD was analyzed in this study. Patients who underwent standard PD (n = 72) or PPPD (n = 28) in the 20-year period from 1978 to 1997 were retrospectively reviewed. After PPPD, 4 patients (14.3%) developed marginal ulceration on the jejunal side of the duodenojejunal anastomosis, while none of the patients had marginal ulceration after standard PD. The marginal ulcer occurred in 3 of 14 patients treated with the Roux-en-Y method, and in 1 of 9 treated with pancreatogastrostomy. In the Roux-en-Y method, the anal jejunal loop anastomosed to the bulb was directly exposed to gastric juice without neutralization by pancreatic juice from the oral jejunal limb. Of the 4 patients with marginal ulceration, 2 of those treated by the Roux-en-Y method required gastrectomy; the other 2 patients were treated medically. Our analysis of the literature showed that the Roux-en-Y method had the highest incidence of marginal ulcerations. The gastrointestinal reconstruction method without a mixture of gastric juice and pancreatic juice may be a causal factor in the marginal ulceration that occurs after PPPD. In reconstruction after PPPD, we should not create a jejunal loop that is exposed to gastric juice alone.
