Morphine-induced macrophage apoptosis modulates migration of macrophages: use of in vitro model of urinary tract infection.

abstract：:Obtaining a precise fascial closure of larger laparoscopic port sites presents an ongoing challenge for even the most experienced laparoscopic surgeons. To this end, we evaluated five new methods for closing laparoscopic port sites and compared these with the standard technique of a hand-sutured repair using a 0 absor...
