矿泉浴与雷公藤多甙治疗类风湿性关节炎对比观察

A Comparative Study on Rheumatoid Arthritis Treated with Mineral Spring Bath and Tripterygium Wilfordii Hook F

采用矿泉浸浴与雷公藤多甙治疗类风湿性关节炎８６例，观察疼痛及压痛关节数、肿胀关节数、握力、１５米步行时间、展僵时间、血沉及类风湿因子等。经统计学处理，两组患者治疗前后的变化差异均有显著性或非常显著性，但两组疗效差异无显著性．矿泉浸浴组症状开始改善的平均时间早于雷公藤多甙组，且副作用明显少而轻微．

patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA) were separately treated with mineral spring bath(47 cases) and tripterygium wilfordii hook F(39 cases).Before and after treatment we assessed the number of arthralgia,joint tenderness and swelling, 15 meter walking time,duration of morning stiffness as well as ESR,RF.The result indicated that there were statistically significant differences in these patients before and after treatment.However,there were not significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).The symptom improvement of mineral group was earlier than that of tripterygium wilfordii hook F group.The side effects in the mineral group were also very slight.
