Six children with juvenile chronic polyarthritis were studied and their disease activity correlated with haematological values including serum ferritin. The latter is often raised above reference values, but even when within them appears to fluctuate significantly and correlates more closely with disease activity than any of the other parameters measured. We conclude that the serial measurement of serum ferritin may be a useful guide to the management of such children.
对六名青少年慢性关节炎患儿进行了研究,并将他们的疾病活动情况与包括血清铁蛋白在内的血液学指标进行了关联分析。血清铁蛋白常常高于参考值,即便在参考值范围内,其水平似乎也会大幅波动,而且相较于所测的其他任何参数,血清铁蛋白与疾病活动的相关性更为密切。我们得出结论,对血清铁蛋白进行连续测量可能有助于指导此类患儿的治疗。
