METHODS:Patients were randomized by age, sex, diagnosis, and surgical method, and assigned to three groups:(1) A steroid group (STRD, n= 9) who received 100 mg of hydrocortisone before PM, and on postoperative days 1, 2 and 3, followed by tapering until postoperative day 7; (2) An EPO1 group (n=10) who received 30 000 U of Epo before the PM and at the end of surgery; and (3) An EPO2 group (n=8) who received 60 000 U of Epo before the PM. Hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Ht), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), lactate, interleukin-6 (IL-6),and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α were measured before and just after (Day 0) surgery, and on postoperative days 1, 3, 7 and 14. RESULTS: There were no increases in Hb and Ht in the EPO1 and EPO2 groups. AST was signif icantly lower in EPO1 than in STRD on Day 0 (P=0.041), and lower in EPO1 than in STRD and EPO2 on Day 1 (P=0.018). ALT was signif icantly lower in EPO1 than in STRD and EPO2 on Day 0 (P=0.020) and Day 1 (P=0.004). There were no signif icant inter-group differences in the levels of LDH and lactate. IL-6 was signif icantly lower in EPO1 than in STRD and EPO2 on Day 0 (P=0.0036) and Day 1 (P=0.0451). TNF-α was signif icantly lower in EPO1 than in STRD and EPO2 on Day 0 (P=0.0006) and Day 1 (P<0.0001). Furthermore, hospitalization was signif icantly shorter in EPO1 and EPO2 than in STRD.CONCLUSION:Epo has greater potential than steroids to ameliorate IR/I after the PM. Epo at a dose of 30000 U, administered before PM and just after surgery, yields better results.展开更多
