Twenty children with acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) were randomized to receive either oral megadose methylprednisolone (MDMP) or intravenous immunoglobulin G (IV IgG). Normal platelet counts (> or = 150 x 10(9)/l) were obtained in 6 patients of each group in 3 days and in 8 and 9 patients treated with oral MDMP and with IV IgG within 1 week, respectively. It is concluded that oral MDMP could easily be used for the early elevation of platelet counts, which is important for ITP treatment.
20名急性特发性血小板减少性紫癜(ITP)患儿被随机分组,分别接受口服大剂量甲基强的松龙(MDMP)或静脉注射免疫球蛋白G(IV IgG)治疗。每组各有6例患者在3天内血小板计数恢复正常(≥150×10⁹/L),接受口服MDMP和IV IgG治疗的患者分别有8例和9例在1周内血小板计数恢复正常。得出的结论是,口服MDMP可方便地用于早期提升血小板计数,这对ITP治疗很重要。
