Objective To study on glutathione and glutathione-related enzymes of Antarctic ice microalgae.Methods Glutathione(GSH) content,glutathione produce ability(GPA) and glutathione reductase(GR) activity in 24 kinds of Antarctic ice microalgae were assessed using the spectrophotometer methods.Results GSH content of Cyanophyceae B-1 was highest.Total GSH yields of Antarctic ice microalgae Chlamydomonas sp.ICE-L and Berkeleya rutilans GJ01 were in the top two positions.GPA in most Antarctic ice microalgae was higher than that in mesophilic green algae,and only in two ice microalgae was lower than that in Phaeodactylum tricornutum.GR activities of Antarctic ice microalgae Berkeleya rutilans GJ01 and Chlamydomonas sp.ICE-L were greater than that of the control microalgae.Conclusion It is possible that Antarctic ice microalgae will become a new resource of GSH.

Objective:To investigate the reference value of ultrasonography (US) image features, elastography and serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels in preoperative diagnosis of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted to collect clinical data of patients undergoing thyroid surgery in the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from September 2018 to January 2020. All patients underwent conventional ultrasound, elastography examination and serum TSH level measurement before surgery; patients were divided into benign group and DTC group according to the results of pathological results of the operation, and the US image features and elasticity score were analyzed by chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression to evaluate the causes of DTC; a multivariate logistic regression model was established and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn with the regression model, by analyzing the area under the ROC curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, the reference value of US image features, elastography and serum TSH levels in the preoperative diagnosis of DTC were judged.Results:Clinical data of 81 patients were collected, including 17 men and 64 women, aged (48.72 ± 10.58) years. In benign group, there were 37 cases, including 10 men and 27 women, with age of (53.24 ± 9.59) years; there were 44 patients in DTC group, including 7 men and 37 women, with age of (44.91 ± 9.95) years old, the age difference between benign group and DTC group was significant ( t = 3.822, P < 0.05), while the gender difference was not statistically significant (χ 2 = 1.498, P > 0.05). There were significant differences in the number, size, echo level, microcalcification, aspect ratio and elasticity score between benign group and DTC group (χ 2 = 49.000, 4.457, 32.111, 5.444, 4.457, 49.926, P < 0.05); multivariate logistic analysis showed that hypoecho, microcalcification, aspect ratio > 1 and elasticity score were risk factors for DTC ( OR = 8.042, 4.787, 4.160, 2.380, P < 0.05), the ROC curve of the multivariate logistic regression model showed that the AUC was 0.841 (95% CI = 0.743 - 0.939), sensitivity was 90.91%, specificity was 72.97%, and accuracy was 82.72%; the AUC of serum TSH level prediction of DTC showed that the AUC was 0.721 ( P < 0.05), sensitivity was 72.70%, specificity was 64.90%, accuracy was 54.30%, and TSH best cut-off value was 2.215 μU/ml. Conclusion:In the preoperative diagnosis of DTC, US image features, elastography and serum TSH levels are of important clinical reference value for diagnosis of DTC, and the establishment of multivariate logistic regression model is conducive in improving the clinicians prediction of the occurrence of DTC.

Objective:To investigate the adult thyroid structural abnormalities and epidemiological characteristics in different regions of Heilongjiang Province.Methods:From December 2017 to November 2018, 30 survey sites were selected in 13 prefecture-level cities under the jurisdiction of Heilongjiang Province by the population probability sampling (PPS) method, and 120 local residents aged 20 to 70 who lived for more than 1 year in the local area were selected from each survey site for thyroid ultrasound examination. The occurrence of thyroid structural abnormalities in different genders, ages and regions were analyzed.Results:A total of 3 870 residents were investigated, including 1 248 males and 2 622 females, aged (48.3 ± 12.6) years; 2 075 urban residents and 1 795 rural residents. A total of 2 144 cases of thyroid structural abnormalities were detected, with a total detection rate of 55.40% (2 144/3 870); among them, 1 476 cases of thyroid focal nodular lesions, 359 cases of diffuse lesions, and 309 cases of diffuse lesions with focal nodules, the detection rates were 38.14%, 9.28%, and 7.98%, respectively. The detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities was 61.25% (1 606/2 622) in women and 43.11% (538/1 248) in men, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=111.899, P < 0.01). There was significant difference in the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities among different age groups (χ 2=185.959, P < 0.01); and with the increase of age, the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities showed an upward trend (χ 2trend=173.576, P < 0.01). There was significant difference in the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities in adults among different prefecture-level cities (χ 2=108.487, P < 0.01); but there was no significant difference in the total detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities between urban and rural (χ 2=0.103, P > 0.05). Conclusions:The main thyroid structural abnormalities in Heilongjiang Province are focal nodular lesions. The detection rate of women is higher than that of men, and the older the age, the higher the detection rate. There are differences in the detection rate of thyroid structural abnormalities in adults of different prefecture-level cities, but there is no significant difference between urban and rural.

Objective:To evaluate the short-term and long-term efficacy of Heidelberg triangle dissection in surgical treatment for pancreatic head cancer.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 97 patients with pancreatic head cancer who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at Cangzhou Central Hospital from Jan 2017 to Jan 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. After propensity score matching, 33 patients were included into the Heidelberg group and 36 patients in the control group.Results:There were no significant difference between Heidelberg group and control group in preoperative general conditions and postoperative major complications, while there were more cases with safe surgical margin > 1 mm (81.8% vs. 58.3%, P=0.034) and a significantly higher total number of lymph node dissection (11.24±2.35 vs. 9.50±2.76, P=0.006). In the survival analysis, the cumulative recurrence rate at 12 months (0.182±0.067 vs. 0.444±0.083, P=0.023) and 18 months (0.424±0.086 vs. 0.667±0.079, P=0.024) were better off in the Heidelberg group, and the local recurrence rate in the Heidelberg group was significantly lower than that in the control group (15.3 % vs. 36.1 %, P=0.037). However, there was no statistical difference in the overall survival time between the two groups. Conclusion:Dissection of Heidelberg triangle in radical resection of pancreatic head cancer reduces tumor local recurrence ,while fails to provide survival benefit.

Medical injection pump is a commonly used clinical equipment with high risk. Accurate detection of flow is an important aspect to ensure its reliable operation. In this paper, we carefully studied and analyzed the flow detection methods of three standards being used in medical injection pump detection in our country. The three standards were compared from the aspects of standard device, flow test point selection, length of test time and accuracy judgment. The advantages and disadvantages of these standards were analyzed and suggestions for improvement were put forward.
