A rare but clinically important diagnostic dilemma arises when cases meet the criteria for both acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC) and mixed phenotype acute leukemia, especially those that evolve from myelodysplastic syndrome. We describe a 56-year-old male patient who presented with cytopenias and was initially diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome with single lineage dysplasia. Nearly 1 year later, this patient progressed to acute leukemia, and his blast cells simultaneously expressed T-lymphoid and myeloid antigens.

Methods: The expressions of MALAT1, miR-146a and CXCR4 were performed by qRT-PCR and Western Blot. We conducted trans-well assay, CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry to evaluate the migration, proliferation and apoptosis of AML cells.
Objective: To observe the effect of 's subcutaneous needling on thickness and elasticity of affected muscles in subjects with shoulder neck pain by ultrasonic elastography.
Methods: A total of 30 subjects with upper trapezius pain and local tenderness, or stiffness and funicular nodules were observed randomly, right shoulders were as observation group and left shoulders were as control group. Simple resistance training was adopted in the control group.
