The results showed that the overall curative rate was 52.4% in the ATG therapy group (21 cases) and 58.3% in the CSA therapy group (12 cases) respectively. The effective rate of all patients (SAA and CAA) was 58.1% in the IS group (18/31) and 40.4% in the androgens group (42/104), P】0.05. But, in the childhood patients with SAA, the clinical effective rate was 68.4% in the IS group and 7.9% in the androgens group, P【0.01. The laboratory tests revealed that the majority of the AA patients displalyed abnormal immunological states: inversed CD4/ CD8 ratio and increased IL-2 activity. These abnormal immunological states could be normalized in several patients when clinical response was abtained following IS therapy with ATG and CSA.展开更多
