Figure 3 Histopathology in different groups. A: Histopathology in blank control group showing no acute rejection (HE, A1: original magnification: 33×; A2: original magnification: 132×); B: Histopathology in control group showing slightly acute rejection 1 wk after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) (HE, B1: original magnification: 33×; B2: original magnification: 132×); C: Histopathology in Dex group showing slight–moderate acute rejection 1 wk after OLT (HE, C1: original magnification: 33×; C2: original magnification: 132×); D: Histopathology in SpC group showing moderate–acute rejection 1 wk after OLT, with less extensive hepatocyte necrosis (HE, D1: original magnification: 33×; D2: original magnification: 132×); E: Histopathology in Dex-SpC group showing serious acute rejection 1 wk after OLT, with more extensive hepatocytes necrosis (HE, E1: original magnification: 33; E2: original magnification: 132×).

Pooled over strata (statistic = 11.13, P = 0.011), Pairwise over strata, D vs A (statistic = 6.93, P = 0.0085), B (statistic = 4.57, P = 0.0326), C (statistic = 2.24 , P = 0.1342). A: control group, B: Dex group, C: SpC group, D: Dex-SpC group.
