Text: In the laparotomy group, the levels of plasma AOPP and MDA level slightly increased just after operation in comparison with those before operation [(53. 39 + / - 9. 86) micromol/L vs. (52. 30 + / - 7. 10) micromol/L and (2. 09 + / - 0. 51) micromol/L vs. (1. 83 + / - 0. 64) micromol/L respectively, both P > 0. 05] and continued to increase 24 hours after operation [(63. 40 + / - 15. 5) micromol/L, P < 0. 05, and (2. 42 + / - 0. 44) micromol/L, P < 0. 01] ; the GPx and AOA levels decreased a little just after operation [(0. 51 + / - 0. 17) U/mL vs. (0. 57 + / - 0. 21) U/mL and (1. 20 + / - 0. 46) mmol/L vs. (1. 33 + / - 0. 37) mmol/L, both P > 0. 05] and continued to decrease 24 hours after operation [(0. 35 + / - 0. 19) U/mL and (0. 92 + / - 0. 22) mmol/L respectively, both P < 0. 01].
