Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical outcomes and safety of immunoadsorption therapy for refractory autoimmune disease in children.Methods Three boys who suffered of severe autoimmune disease-one boy suffered of severe dermatomyositis and pulmonary infection; one suffered of severe anaphylactoid purpura with alimentary tract hemorrhage and entero ablation for intestinal perforation ; other one suffered of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis and severe prosopo-cellular tissue infection,macrophage active syndrome,were treated with blood immunoadsorption by resin immunoadsorbent of HA280.Then evaluated the clinical outcome of 3 cases,including symptom improvement,change of serum immune globulin,complement,enzyme of liver and heart,autoantibody.Results After the treatment of immunoadsorption,the symptom of 3 cases improved obviously; the sensitivity of the corticosteroids increased; autoantibody of antinuclear antibody (ANA) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (CCP) changed to negative; C-reactive protein (CRP) dropped (P ＜ 0.05) ; descending scale of IgM,IgA,C3,C4 increased (P ＜ 0.05) ; the normal scale of immunoglobulin didn't changed (P ＞ 0.05) ; besides aspartate aminotransferase (AST) dropped in the case of dermatomyositis,the other enzyme of liver and heart didn't changed.Conclusions The body could be restored quickly by the treatment of immunoadsorption together with the drug; CRP in the blood could be removed by immunoadsorbent of resin; 1 or 2 times blood immunoadsorption could not change the level of enzyme,but it need to do more on severe cases,especially those with poor organ function; for the safe of the treatment of immunoadsorption for the young age,low weigh and severe cases,the operative procedure should be critical care.
