Objective To compare the effect of continuous saphenous nerve block (SNB)with femoral nerve block (FNB)under multimodal analgesia for early analgesic effect and rehabilitation af-ter total knee replacement (TKA).Methods Sixty patients scheduled to undergo TKA,23 males and 37 females,were randomly divided into two groups:group A (continuous SNB)and group B (contin-uous FNB ).The patients received PCA after surgery by the catheter placed near nerve with ultrasound-guided.The loading dose was 0.5% ropivacaine 25 ml and 0.1 mg epinephrine,back-ground dose was 5 ml/h,bolus dose was 5 ml and the locking time was 20 min.The first time to walk and total steps,the knee joint range of motion,postoperative hospital stay,general anesthetics and additional analgesics dose and the side effects were also recorded.Results The first time to walkand walking distancein group A were better than group B [(25.4±2.1)h vs (34.0±2.7)h,(7.6±1.8) steps vs (3.7±1.3)steps,(P<0.05)].The range of motion in group A was bigger than in group B [12 h:(75.8±4.3)°vs (65.4±4.7)°,24 h:(93.3±4.2)°vs (81.8±4.3)°,48 h:(102.1±4.1)° vs (95.1±2.6)°,P<0.05].The average length of postoperative hospital stay was shorter in group A than in group B [(5.3±1.2)d vs (7.4±1.4)d,P<0.05].The additional analgesics and the side effects were similar between the two groups.Conclusion The continuous SNB combined with multi-modal analgesia was more beneficial to patients with the early postoperative rehabilitation for TKA.

[摘 要] 目的:体内外实验探讨木鳖子单体化合物对羟基桂皮醛[Momordica cochinchinensis(Lour.)Spreng.p-hydroxycinnamaldehyde,CMSP]对小鼠黑色素瘤移植瘤生长和转移的影响及其作用机制。方法:建立荷瘤小鼠动物模型,并将18只C57BL/6小鼠随机分成3组(每组6只):对照组(腹腔注射0.1 ml生理盐水)、CMSP治疗组(分别腹腔注射0.1 ml 1、2 mg/ml CMSP),给药的第5天开始,每次给药前用卡尺分别测量和计算小鼠移植瘤的体积,实验结束后称量移植瘤的质量;H-E染色后光镜观察肝组织的病理学变化;免疫组织化学SP法观察移植瘤组织E-cadherin和vimentin蛋白的表达。采用细胞划痕和Transwell实验分别检测CMSP实验组(10、20 µg/ml)黑色素瘤B16细胞24、48 h的迁移能力,qPCR法检测CMSP处理24 h后B16细胞EMT相关mRNA表达,WB法检测CMSP处理B16细胞48 h后β-catenin、p-β-catenin(Ser675)、vimentin和E-cadherin蛋白的表达水平。结果:CMSP治疗组小鼠移植瘤平均体积和肿瘤质量明显降低(均P<0.05);对照组小鼠肝脏中转移灶的数量明显多于CMSP(1、2 mg/kg)治疗组(均P<0.05),CMSP(2 mg/kg)处理组小鼠的肝组织内未发现明显转移灶。CMSP治疗组(1、2 mg/kg)移植瘤组织中E-cadherin蛋白表达水平明显高于对照组(均P<0.05),而vimentin蛋白表达显著低于对照组(均P<0.01)。体外实验中,CMSP实验组(10、20 μg/ml)B16细胞24、48 h后划痕愈合率较对照组均明显降低(均P<0.05)。20 μg/ml CMSP处理B16细胞24、48 h后穿过Transwell小室的细胞数较对照组则显著下降(均P<0.01)。CMSP(10、20 μg/ml)处理B16细胞后β-catenin mRNA表达水平较对照组明显降低(均P<0.01),E-cadherin mRNA表达水平则明显升高(均P<0.05),而vimentin mRNA表达水平在10 μg/ml处理组与对照组相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),20 μg/ml处理组则明显降低(P<0.01)。与对照组相比,CMSP实验组(10、20 μg/ml)处理B16细胞后β-catenin、p-β-catenin和vimentin蛋白表达均显著降低(均P<0.01),而E-cadherin蛋白表达则明显升高(均P<0.01)。结论:CMSP能够抑制小鼠黑色素瘤移植瘤的生长和转移,其作用机制可能与抑制wnt/β-catenin通路的活性相关。
