Résumé
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the evolution of blood separation results by gel extraction of multiple myeloma (MM) patients, and to evaluate the clinical value of abnormal blood separation results for the evaluation of disease and prognosis.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 5 patients diagnosed newly MM patients with abnormal blood separation of gel collection vessels in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and the changes of blood separation results and blood index levels were followed up with the improvement of treatment effect, and the correlation of different blood index levels was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#In 5 patients with newly diagnosed MM, the blood separation result showed floating phenomenon after centrifugation, which divided into three layers and the order from top to bottom is separator gel, serum, and red blood cells(RBC). With partial remission of clinical symptoms, the blood separation results were still abnormal, which were divided into three layers from top to bottom: serum, RBC and separator gel. Finally, with complete remission of the disease, blood separation results returned to normal, from top to bottom: serum, separator gel, RBC. With the blood separation results from abnormal to normal, the blood routine indicators: Hb, Hct levels gradually increased, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR) gradually decreased; biochemical indexes: TP, GLB, Ig and β2-MG levels gradually decreased. Tumor load related indicators: serum IL-6, TNF-α, IL-17 levels gradually decreased, and IL-35 levels gradually increased; and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum β2-MG was positively correlated with IL-6, TNF-α and IL-17 levels (r=0.710, 0.756, 0.581, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with IL-35 level (r=-0565, P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Abnormal blood separation exists in MM patients, and there are significant differences in blood, tumor load and immune balance related indexes in patients with different blood separation results, which provides partial experimental basis for evaluation of disease, efficacy and prognosis with different blood separation results.
