Prednisone therapy induced prompt clinical remission in a 38-year-old woman with hypereosinophilic vasculitis. Smoldering vasculitis accounts for the 38% fatality rate in treated patients with the Churg-Strauss syndrome. Complete suppression of the peripheral hypereosinophilia will reflect the efficacy of therapy more accurately than clinical response.
泼尼松治疗使一名患有嗜酸性粒细胞增多性血管炎的38岁女性迅速实现临床缓解。隐匿性血管炎在接受治疗的变应性肉芽肿性血管炎患者的死亡率中占38%。与临床反应相比，外周嗜酸性粒细胞增多的完全抑制能更准确地反映治疗效果。
