Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on the hemodynamics and the heart rate variability(HRV)in patients under-going lower limbs operations with application of tourniquet. Methods Forty patients undergoing lower limbs operations with application of tourni-quet were randomized assigned to dexmedetomidine group(group D,n=20)or control group(group C,n=20). After combined spinal-epidural anesthesia,group D received a continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine(0.5μg/kg for 10 min for loading dose and followed by 0.2μg·kg-1·h-1) until tourniquet deflation. The control group received normal saline instead. Mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR),saturation of pulse ox-imetry(SpO2),low frequency power(LF),high frequency power(HF)and LF to HF ratio(LF/HF)were recorded at regular time points:imme-diately before loading dose(T0),before tourniquet inflation(T1),15 min after tourniquet inflation(T2),30 min after tourniquet inflation(T3),45 min after tourniquet inflation(T4),60 min after tourniquet inflation(T5),1 min after tourniquet deflation(T6),5 min after tourniquet deflation (T7)and 10 min after tourniquet deflation(T8). Results Compared with T0,the MAP of group D significantly decreased at T6-T8(P<0.05). Compared with T0 and T1,the MAP of group C increased at T2-T5(P>0.05). Compared with T2-T5,the MAP of group C significantly decreased at T6(P<0.05). Compared with group C,the MAP of group D significantly decreased at T6 and T7(P<0.05). Compared with T0,the HR of group D significantly decreased at T1-T8(P<0.05). Compared with T0,the HR of group C had no significant change at T1-T5(P<0.05). Compared with T1-T5,the HR of group D and group C significantly increased at T6(P<0.05). Compared with group C,the HR of group D significantly decreased at T1-T4 and T6(P<0.05). Compared with T0,the SpO2 of group D and group C significantly decreased at T6(P<0.05). Compared with group C,the SpO2 of group D significantly decreased at T1-T3(P<0.05). Compared with T6,LF of group D and group C significantly increased at T7(P<0.05). LF were comparable between groups D and C(P>0.05). Compared with T0,the HF of group D significantly increased and the LF/HF of group D significantly decreased at T1-T4(P<0.05). Compared with group C,the HF of group D significantly increased and the LF/HF of group D significantly decreased at T1-T4(P<0.05). Conclusion The appropriate dose of dexmedetomidine(loading dose 0.5μg/kg and maintenance dose 0.2μg · kg-1 · h-1)can significantly increase vagal tone and improve cardiac sympathetic and parasympathetic balance during tourniquet appli-cation.

Objective To study the effectiveness of the laboratory diagnosis of multiple myeloma(MM)patients with immun-ofixtion electrophoresis (IFE),protein electrophoresis (SPE)and immunoglobulins and light chain quantitative analysis. Methods Selected 192 MM patients and 30 healthy controls during June 2012 to December 2013 and analyzed the results of IFE,SPE and immunoglobulins,and light chain quantitative analysis in MM patients.Results M protein bands were seen in 120 cases (62.5%)by using SPE and M protein were positive in 174 cases (90.6%)among the 192 MM patients by using IFE.IFE showed that IgG were maximum type of the M protein (106 of 192,55.2%).There were IgG-λ type 66 cases (34.4%),IgA type 36 cases (18.8%)and free light chain type 24 cases (12.5%).Immunoglobulins of different immuno-phenotypes had higher than the nomal group with serum immunoglobulin and light chain quantitative analysis (P <0.05). The detection rate was 67.7% (130/192).Whateverκ-type M protein orλ-type M protein,the ratio ofκ/λwas significantly abnormal (P <0.05).The detection rate was 85.4% (164/192).Conclusion The better detection rate of immunological techniques such as immunofixtion electrophoresis and immunoglobulins quantitative analysis might provide valuable basis for the diagnosis and treatment of MM clinically and prevent misdiagnosis.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Sodium hyaluronate is an effective treatment for osteoarthritis, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. There is evidence that abnormal expressions of matrix metaloproteinase (MMP)-1, -3 and -9 and tissue inhibitor of metaloproteinase (TIMP)-1 and -2 show great effects on osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE: To assess the influence of intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate on expressions of MMPs-1, 3, 9 and tissue inhibitor of TIMPs-1, 2 in the rabbit cartilage after osteoarthritis. METHODS: Twenty-four mature New Zealand white rabbits were divided into normal control, model, and sodium hyaluronate groups. The model and sodium hyaluronate groups underwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection, and rabbits in the sodium hyaluronate group received 0.3 mL of 1% sodium hyaluronate via intra-articular injection at 4 weeks after modeling, once a week for 5 weeks. At 11 weeks folowing surgery, the rabbits were kiled and the cartilage was harvested to extract total RNA. mRNA expressions of MMPs-1, 3, 9 and TIMPs-1, 2 in the cartilage were analyzed using real-time PCR for each group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group, the range and extent of cartilage damage was reduced in the sodium hyaluronate group (P < 0.01), and Mankin scores were noticeably decreased (P < 0.05). In the cartilage, mRNA expressions of MMPs-1, 3, 9 were enhanced and mRNA expressions of TIMPs-1, 2 were down-regulated in the model group. However, the mRNA expression levels of MMPs-1, 3, 9 and TIMPs-1, 2 in the articular cartilage were not obviously changed in the sodium hyaluronate group. These results suggest that MMPs-1, 3, 9 and TIMPs-1, 2 are involved in the progression of osteoarthritis and the therapeutic mechanism of sodium hyaluronate is not realized through the down-regulation of their expressions during development of osteoarthritis. Sodium hyaluronate for treatment of osteoarthritis is a complex process and the underlying mechanisms require further investigation.
