Objective To investigate the effects of atorvastatin calcium on thyroid function, immune response and C-Jun N-terminal kinase/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (JNK/p38 MAPK) signaling pathway in rats with hypothyroidism. Methods A total of 30 healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, hypothyroid group (PTU group) and atorvastatin calcium treatment group (ACT group), with 10 rats in each group. Rats in the PTU group and the ACT group were injected with PTU subcutaneously at the dorsum of the neck every day for 28 consecutive days; instead of PTU, rats in the control group were injected subcutaneously with 0.3 mL of saline. After 2 weeks of PTU treatment, rats in the ACT group were gavaged with 3 mL of atorvastatin calcium saline solution (containing 5 mg/kg of atorvastatin calcium), which was administered once daily; the control group was gavaged with an equal amount of saline in the same way. The body weight, food intake and water intake of rats were measured weekly. The histopathological changes of the thyroid gland were observed in histopathological sections of rats in each group. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to determine the levels of triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), interferon γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) in serum; quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the mRNA expression levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, Foxp3 and IL-4; western blot was performed to determine the levels of p-JNK/JNK and p-p38/p38 MAPK. Results Compared with control group, PTU-induced hypothyroidism rats showed a significant decrease in body mass and food and water consumption (

Objective:To evaluate the ultrasound diagnostic value of portal vein complications after liver transplantation by monitoring changes in portal vein hemodynamic parameters using the color Doppler ultrasound technology and to determine its clinical significance.Methods:The clinical data of 99 patients who underwent liver transplantation at the Organ Transplantation Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from July 2015 to December 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 81 males and 18 females, aged (51±9) years old. These patients were divided into the portal vein complication ( n=23) and the non-portal vein complication ( n=76) groups, based on whether portal vein complications had developed within 2 years after surgery. In addition, 30 healthy volunteers at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, including 16 males and 14 females, aged (40±14) years old were selected to form the control group. The patients’ morphology of liver was studied using color Doppler ultrasound at days 1, 7, 14, 30, 180, 365 and 730 after liver transplantation, and the maximum portal vein blood flow velocity and portal blood flow were recorded. Results:Compared with the control group, the maximum portal venous flow velocity and portal venous blood flow significantly increased on days 1, 7, 14, 30, and 180 after liver transplantation in the non-portal complication group (all P<0.05). With time, these changes showed a decreasing trend. By day 365 after surgery, the differences between the maximum portal venous flow velocity and the portal venous blood flow between the two groups became not significant ( P>0.05). Of the 23 patients in the portal vein complication group, 9 developed portal vein stenosis (PVS) and 14 portal vein embolism. The 9 patients with PVS had a maximum portal flow velocity of 63.8 (46.0, 78.6) cm/s at 1 month after surgery, and this flow velocity was significantly higher than that in the non-portal complication group [35.0(29.6, 41.8) cm/s, Z=-3.35, P<0.001]. The portal blood flow was 993 (887, 1168) ml/min in the 9 patients with portal vein stenosis at 1 month after surgery, and it was significantly higher than those in the non-portal complication group [811(682, 1 018) ml/min, Z=-2.37, P=0.020]. Conclusions:After liver transplantation, both the portal venous blood flow velocity and the blood flow were at high levels in the early postoperative period and they returned to normal levels with time. Ultrasound dynamic monitoring of portal venous blood flow changes was of clinical significance in diagnosing portal vein stenosis and portal vein embolism after liver transplantation.

Objective:
To describe the MICM (morphology, immunology, cytogenetics and molecular biology) characteristics of a case of acute myelomonocytic leukemia M 4C .
Methods:
The medical history data of the case of M 4C admitted to our hospital was reviewed. The results of bone marrow cell morphology, cytochemical stains, bone marrow biopsy, immunophenotype, cytogenetics, molecular test and NGS (next-generation sequencing) of the case were analyzed.
Results:
The bone marrow smear showed markedly active proliferation of bone marrow cells in which the myelomonocytic cells accounted for 85.6%. Cytochemical stains showed peroxidase (POX) stain partially and weakly positive; specific esterase AS-DCE partially positive; non-specific esterase α-NBE partially positive and smothered by sodium fluoride; non-specific esterase AS-DAE partially positive and smothered by sodium fluoride. Bone marrow biopsy showed hyperproliferative cells and diffused hyperplasia of blasts. Immunophenotype analysis showed that the abnormal cell population was positive for CD11B, CD64, CD56, cMPO, CD33, CD41, CD61, CD38 and CD58, but negative for CD13, CD34, CD117, CD7, CD123, HLA-DR, CD10, CD19, CD20, CD2, CD14, CD235, CD15, CD303, CD304, CD25, cCD79a, cCD3, cCD22, CD1a and TDT. Cytogenetic analysis showed 47, XY, t(9;11) (p22;q23),+mar. The molecular test for leukemia showed MLLT3/KMT2A gene rearrangement. NGS showed NRAS and TET2 mutation. The case was finally diagnosed as AML (acute myelomonocytic leukemia) M 4C with t(9;11)(p22;q23), MLLT3-KMT2A.
Conclusion
Leukemia M 4C may show the characteristics of both granulocytes and monocytes with complex morphological features. The combined examination of MICM should be necessary for the diagnosis of M 4C with great significance.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of volume therapy guided by stroke volume variabil-ity ( SVV) in the patients undergoing surgery for severe traumatic brain injury. Methods Thirty patients of both sexes with severe traumatic brain injury, aged 18-64 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅲ, who were admitted to the hospital within 24 h after injury, with Glasgow Coma Scale ( GCS) score≤8, were divided into control group ( C group, n=15) and SVV group ( n=15) using a ran-dom number table method. In group C, conventional fluid administration was performed to maintain mean arterial pressure at 65-110 mmHg, central venous pressure at 5-12 cmH2 O and urine volume>1 ml·kg-1 ·h-1 . Fluid was given according to SVV, maintaining SVV≤13% and mean arterial pressure at 65-110 mmHg in group SVV. Immediately after skin incision ( T0 ) , immediately after opening cerebral dura mater ( T1 ) , at 1 h after opening cerebral dura mater ( T2 ) , immediately after suturing cerebral dura mater ( T3 ) and at the end of operation ( T4 ) , blood samples were collected from the radial artery and inter-nal jugular venous bulb for blood gas analysis, the jugular venous oxygen partial pressure, jugular venous bulb oxygen saturation, blood lactate, arterial oxygen partial pressure, arterial oxygen saturation and Hbwere recorded, and the cerebral artery and arteriovenous blood O2 content difference and cerebral O2 extrac-tion rate were calculated. Blood samples were collected from the internal jugular venous bulb at T0-2 , T4 and 24 h after operation ( T5 ) for determination of S100β protein concentrations by enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assay. The intraoperative volume of fluid intake and output and consumption of vasoactive drugs were recorded. GCS scores were recorded immediately after admission to the operating room, and at 1, 3, 7 and 14 days after operation. The development of postoperative length of hospitalization and complications ( pul-monary infection and brain edema) was recorded. Glasgow Outcome Scale Score was used to assess the early postoperative quality of life. Results Compared with group C, the urine volume was significantly in-creased, the consumption of vasoactive drugs was reduced, jugular venous bulb oxygen saturation was in-creased at T2,3 , the cerebral O2 extraction rate was decreased at T2-4 , the serum S100β protein concentra-tion was decreased at T2 , and the GCS score was increased at day 3 after operation ( P<0. 05) , and no sig-nificant change was found in blood lactate, postoperative Glasgow Outcome Scale score or length of hospital-ization at each time point in group SVV ( P>0. 05) . Conclusion SVV-guided volume therapy can improve cerebral oxygen metabolism, ensure adequate tissue perfusion and reduce craniocerebral injury in the pa-tients undergoing surgery for severe traumatic brain injury.
