Abstract:
Objective To observe the recent clinical efficacy of the sequential therapy hormone in the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis.Methods In accordance with the principle of digital sheet,160 patients with active rheumatoid arthritis were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,80 cases in each group.On the basis of methotrexate and leflunomide in both groups,the hormone sequential therapy was given in the observation group,but prednisone was given in the control group.The clinical efficacy of treatment after 1 week and 3 months were compared in two groups.Results In the observation group,the indicators in 7 d after treatment were significantly reduced,compared with untreated(t =19.90,7.63,14.73,7.58,6.84,14.09,all P ＜0.01),In the control group,three indicators of the duration of morning stiffness,joint tenderness index and joint swelling index in 7d after treatment were significantly reduced,compared with untreated (t =13.42,3.34,7.24,all P ＜ 0.01),Compared the indicators in the two groups in 7 d after treatment,there were statistically significant differences (t =13.07,4.92,10.51,5.23,5.74,15.03,all P ＜ 0.01).The indicators in the 3 months after treatment in both groups were signifi cantly decreased,buttherewasnosignificantdifferencebetweenthetwogroups (t =1.80,1.73,1.59,1.22,1.21,1.35,all P ＞ 0.05).The total effective rate was 80% in the observation group; but the rate was 75 % in the control group;there was no statistically significant difference in the two groups(x2 =0.57,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The sequential hormone therapy is an effective means for the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis,by controlled the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis effectively and alleviated the patient's condition.
