Objective To explore the value of thyroid-stimulating antibody(TSAb) and degree of goiter in predicting the outcome of Graves'disease after antithyroid drug treatment. Methods Seventy-one patients with Graves'disease were given antithyroid drugs for (2. 8±1. 4)years and then followed up for(22±6.0)months.Finally,age,gender,thyroid function,TSAb and goiter size at the time of drug withdrawal were compared between the relapsed and relieved groups. TSAb was measured in all patients by using HEK-hTSHR cells. Results Eleven of 71 patients relapsed during the follow-up after drug withdrawal. The relapse rate (42. 9% ,6/14)in patients with positive TSAb was significantly higher than that (8.8%, 5/57) in patient with negative TSAb (X2 = 9.97, P<0.01). The relapse rates in patients with normal size thyroid, Ⅰ degree goiter,Ⅱ degree goiter were 6.25%, 12.2%,35.7% respectively. TSAb activity, positive rate and goiter size of the relapsed patients at the time of drug withdrawal were significantly higher than those of relieved patients (P<0.05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion TSAb activity and goiter size at the time of drug withdrawal are two effective prognostic markers of relapse in Graves' disease treated with antithyroid drugs.

This study is to investigate the protective effects of the SB203580 against radiation induced mortality and intestinal injury of mice. A total of 67 male C57BL/6 mice (20.0-22.0 g) were matched according to body weight and randomly assigned to one of three groups: control, total body irradiation exposure (IR, 7.2 Gy) only, and IR (7.2 Gy) + SB203580 (15 mg x kg(-1)). 30 days survival rate was observed in the experiment. In intestinal injury experiment, the expression levels of caspase-3, Ki67, p53 and p-p38 were assayed in the mice intestine crypts. The results showed that the 30 days survival rate was 100% (control), 0 (IR) and 40% (IR+ SB203580), separately. Compared to the IR groups, the positive cells of caspase-3, p53 and p-p38 in crypt cells decreased 33.00%, 21.78% and 34.63%, respectively. The rate of positive cells of Ki67 increased 37.96%. Significant difference was found between all of them (P < 0.01). SB203580 potently protected against radiation-induced lethal and intestinal injury in mice, and it may be a potential radio protector.

Objective:To evaluate the influence of goal-directed volume management based on cardiac output index (CI), intrathoracic blood volume index (ITBVI) and extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.Methods:Forty patients (ASA 2 to 3 grade) undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery in Lanzhou University Second Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were selected. The patients were divided into 2 groups by random digits table method with 20 cases in each group: study group (goal-directed fluid therapy treatment with CI, ITBVI and EVLWI) and control group (conventional fluid therapy). The control group was given central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring rehydration, and the study group was given PiCCO hemodynamic monitoring indicators. The CVP, CI, ITBVI and EVLWI for fluid management were measured. Accurate assessment of volume status of patients was done. The study group received goal-directed fluid therapy based on CVP, CI, ITBVI and EVLWI, with the goal of CI in the 3.0 to 5.0 L/(min·m 2) range, ITBVI in the 800 to 1 000 ml/m 2 range and EVLWI in the 3.0 to 7.0 ml/kg range. The heart rate, mean arterial pressure (MAP), urine volume, central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2), lactic acid and renal function were monitored. The ventilator withdrawal time, hospitalization in ICU, length of stay, incidence of acute pulmonary edema, incidence of acute renal failure, mortality of 30 d after surgery were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results:Tissue perfusion and urine volume of the study group was significantly improved compared with that of control group ( P<0.05). ScvO 2 of the study group was higher than that of the routine group ( P<0.05). The concentration of lactic acid of the study group was lower than that of the routine group ( P<0.05). The incidences of acute pulmonary edema, acute renal insufficiency and mortality of the study group were lower than those of the routine group (5.0% vs. 15.0%, 5.0% vs. 10.0% and 5.0% vs. 15.0%), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The length of stay and hospitalization in ICU were both lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Goal-directed fluid therapy based on CI, ITBVI and EVLWI can effectively optimize the cardiac preload of patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery, improve cardiac output, ensure microcirculation perfusion, maintain the balance of oxygen supply and demand, and reduce the incidence of complications and mortality.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM).Methods:The clinical data of 64 MM patients who received ASCT in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2015 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical characteristics, therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of the patients were summarized.Results:Of the 64 patients, 42 were male and 22 were female; the median age was 54 years old (37-69 years old). The median number of CD34 + cells collected from 46 patients in the CE (cyclophosphamide, etoposide) regimen mobilization group and 17 patients in the plerixafor mobilization group were 7.50×10 6/kg [(1.15-24.73)×10 6/kg] and 4.54×10 6/kg [(0.75-10.40)×10 6/kg], and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = 3.02, P = 0.024). Hematopoietic reconstitution was successful in all 64 patients, and the median time for white blood cell and platelet engraftment was 11 d (8-13 d) and 11 d (8-15 d), respectively. The patients' pretreatment regimens were all high-dose melphalan, the median white blood cell and platelet engraftment time of 29 patients in the oral group were 11 d (8-13 d) and 11 d (8-15 d), respectively, the median white blood cell and platelet engraftment time of 35 patients in the intravenous infusion group were 11 d (8-12 d) and 11 d (8-15 d), respectively, and there were no statistical differences (both P > 0.05). The ≥CR rate was 48.4% (31/64) before transplantation and 70.3% (45/64) three months after transplantation, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 6.35, P = 0.012). The median follow-up time of all patients was 27 months (2-67 months). The 3-year OS and PFS rates were 77.6% and 54.9%, and the median OS and PFS time were 67 and 52 months. The median hospitalization time was 20 d (15-37 d). There was no transplantation-related mortality, and the main adverse reactions were gastrointestinal reactions (100.0%, 64/64), grade 4 thrombocytopenia (98.4%, 63/64), grade 4 neutropenia, and agranulocytosis with fever (40.6%, 26/64). Conclusions:ASCT is effective for MM patients suitable for transplantation, which can further improve the remission rate and remission depth, prolong the PFS and OS time of patients, and the adverse reactions are controllable.
