Abstract:
Objective To observe the efficacy of methylprednisolone stosstherapy of the IgA nephropathy complicated with partial crescenties formation and effects of this therapy on the urine protein output and renal function.Methods 93 patients of IgA nephropathy complicated with partial crescenties formation were identified by renal biopsy and diagnosed according to the WHO diagnostic criteria in 1982 formulation.The patients were randomly divided into two groups:the control and the treating groups.The control group was treated with oral prednisolone (1mg/Kg/day) plus oral cyclophosphamide(2mg?kg -1 ?d -1 ),while the treating group was administered, on the basis of the therapeutic scheme of the control group,with methylprednisolone 0 5~1 0g(20mg?Kg -1 ?d -1 ) in normal saline solution intravenously by drip,for 8 weeks,The degree of puffiness,BP and 24h urine volume were observed in both groups befoue and after the treatment. The 24h urine protein quantitative determination,urine RBC count(uRBC),urine creatinine,blood creatinine(Cr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum albumin (ALB) and the endogenous creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) were also tested.The side effects in two groups were observed at the same time.Results The urine protein output amounts, urine RBC count,blood Cr and BUN were significantly decreased (P
