Objective:To obtain the normal reference range of hemodynamic ultrasound parameters after pediatric liver transplantation through big data query and statistical analysis, and compare their changes with age.Methods:The clinical liver transplantation ultrasound imaging database software V1.0 independently developed by Tianjin First Central Hospital was used to query the ultrasound hemodynamic parameters of 0-14 years old pediatric patients after parental liver transplantation from December 2012 to December 2022, including portal vein diameter (PVD) on the 1st day, 7th day, 1st month, 6th month, 1st year, 5th year, and 10th year after surgery. The changes in ultrasound blood flow parameters such as portal vein velocity (PVV), hepatic artery peak velocity (S), hepatic artery end diastolic velocity (D), and left hepatic vein velocity (LHVV) with postoperative time in different age groups were analyzed, the differences between age groups were compared, and statistical analysis was perform to obtain the 95% reference value range for each parameter.Results:A total of 731 pediatric patients aged 0-14 years who underwent parental liver transplantation were included in this study, with a total of 5 283 monitoring results. The ultrasound hemodynamic parameters PVV, hepatic artery S, D, and LHVV were highest at 7th day after surgery, and gradually showed a sustained and slightly decreasing trend with the prolongation of postoperative time. At the same time, there was no statistically significant difference in PVV, hepatic artery S, D, and LHVV among different age groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:This study obtains the trend of ultrasound hemodynamic parameters after pediatric liver transplantation with prolonged follow-up time, and compared them among different age groups.After pediatric liver transplantation, there is no significant change in liver hemodynamic parameters with increasing age. Obtaining reference value ranges for various parameters in different age groups is of great clinical significance for early detection and diagnosis of postoperative vascular complications. Pediatric liver transplantation is more complex than adult liver transplantation, and in clinical monitoring, more attention should be paid to the dynamic changes of transplanted liver blood flow, combining with individual patient status, to provide imaging support for clinical diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of postoperative hemodynamic changes in patients with early allograft dysfunction (EAD), and to provide clinical imaging support for the early diagnosis of EAD.Methods:A total of 907 patients who underwent liver transplantation in Tianjin First Central Hospital from December 2012 to June 2021 were retrospectively selected, and they were divided into EAD group (361 cases) and non-EAD group (546 cases) according to EAD diagnostic criteria. The peak systolic velocity(PSV) of the hepatic artery, end-diastolic velocity(EDV) of the hepatic artery, resistance index(RI), S/D(PSV/EDV), diameter of the portal vein(PVD), velocity of the portal vein(PVV), diameter of the middle hepatic vein(MHVD), velocity of the middle hepatic vein(MHVV), the diameter of the right hepatic vein(RHVD), and the velocity of the right hepatic vein (RHVV) were collected from 1 to 7 days after operation (a total of 5 573 ultrasound examination results), and the differences in ultrasound hemodynamic parameters were compared between the two groups. The correlation of S/D<2, PSV<25 cm/s, PVV<15 cm/s, MHVV or RHVV<15 cm/s within 3 days after operation with the occurence of EAO were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:①The PSV and EDV of the hepatic artery in the EAD group and the non-EAD group showed a slow upward trend at 1-7 days after operation, while the hepatic artery RI and PVV showed a downward trend, the MHVV and RHVV did not fluctuate significantly. ②The hepatic artery in the EAD group showed low-resistance blood flow in the early postoperative period, and the EDV were significantly higher than that in the non-EAD group on 1 d, 2 d, 3 d and 5 d, RI was significantly lower than that of the non-EAD group (all P<0.05); At 4 d, 6 d and 7 d, there was no significant differences of EDV and RI between the two groups(all P>0.05). The PSV of the EAD group was higher than that of the non-EAD group on 3 d ( P<0.05). Among the parameters of portal vein blood flow, the PVV in the EAD group was significantly higher than that in the non-EAD group on 1 d ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference of PVD between the two groups at day 1-7. Among the parameters of hepatic venous blood flow, the MHVV and RHVV in the EAD group were significantly lower than those in the non-EAD group (all P<0.05), there was no significant difference between the two groups of MHVD and RHVD at 1-7 days. ③The incidence of grafted hepatic artery S/D<2 within 3 days after operation in EAD group was higher than that in non-EAD group. Binary Logistic regression multivariate analysis showed that the occurrence of grafted hepatic artery S/D<2 within 3 days after operation was significantly correlated with the occurrence of EAD[Exp(B)=1.878, P<0.05]. Conclusions:Patients who develop EAD after liver transplantation show low-resistance blood flow in the hepatic artery during the perioperative period, and the occurrence of hepatic artery S/D<2 within 3 days after operation can early predict the occurrence of EAD.

Postoperative thyroid scar not only causes itching, pain, and pulling, but also seriously affects the patient’s aesthetics, so it is important to study the prevention and treatment of postoperative thyroid scar. In the past 20 years, clinicians have made many innovative researches to alleviate postoperative thyroid scar growth, and the following progresses have been made: firstly, thyroid surgery methods and surgical accesses have been improved to a certain extent, resulting in more concealed and less traumatic accesses; secondly, the use of lasers and silicone and other drugs has significantly improved the scar treatment effect; thirdly, the concept of "cosmetic" is gradually gaining popularity, and related technical means are used throughout the treatment of postoperative scarring of the thyroid gland, and multiple treatment modalities are used "early" and "in combination" to "prevent" scar growth after surgery. The use of multiple treatment modalities to prevent scar growth in the early postoperative period has achieved twice the result with half the effort.

Air pollution is a major environmental threat to human health, and skin, as the largest organ of the human body, is a major exposure route of air pollutants, so the correlations between air pollutants and skin diseases are noteworthy to study. This paper reviewed the acute effects of air pollutants on the risks of dermatosis outpatient and emergency visits at home and abroad, especially on dermatitis, eczema, urticaria, acne, psoriasis, and other skin diseases with high prevalence rates and heavy disease burdens. The effects of air pollutants on skin diseases are affected by exposure characteristics of air pollutants (such as composition, concentration, and exposure time), environmental factors (such as temperature, humidity, and ultraviolet), and population characteristics. In view of insufficient evidence on the long-term effects of air pollutants on skin diseases and the interaction of environmental factors, future research directions were prospected, aiming to provide new ideas for further study on the effects of air pollutants on skin diseases and the formulation of relevant prevention and control strategies.
