摘要
目的:观察类风湿性关节炎(简称RA)并肝功能异常患者使用反应停的疗效及安全性。方法:6例RA合并肝功能异常的患者使用反应停平均150mg/d,治疗1年,以7项临床指标(关节肿胀指数、关节压痛指数、休息痛、晨僵时间、握力、血沉、C反应蛋白)为主要疗效指数,观察治疗前后肝功能的变化。结果:6例患者7项指标均显著改善,不良反应少,而且较轻,治疗过程中2个月复查1次肝功能无明显变化。结论:反应停对RA并肝功能异常患者是一个很有前途的药物,其生物学作用机制可能与炎症因子TNF-α基因表达受抑制有关。
Objective:To observe the curetive effect and safety of thalidomide in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with liver function abnormality.Methods:Six patients with rheumatoid arthritis and liver function impairment were treated with thalidomide in a dose of 150 mg/d for a year.Seven indices were measured as primary effect exponents,and the change of liver function before and after treatment was observed respectively.Results:All seven indices in 6 cases were improved,with less and well-tolerated side-effect.Each patient received a follow-up examination of live function every two months during the treatment,and there was no obvious change in their liver function.Conclusion:Thalidomide is a reasonably promising drug for treating rheumatoid arthritis with liver function abnormality,and its biological mechanism of action is possiblely related to the gene expression of proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α by suppression.
