关于中医,我说说我的观点

  • 你所链接的这篇文章,里面所依据的是2006年9月12日发表在PLOS(Public Library of Science)的Medicine上的文章。题目是SARS: Systematic Review of Treatment Effects(SARS:治疗效果的系统性评述)(翻译水平有限,请见谅)
    这篇文章是应WHO的要求所写的,作者有三个,分别是Lauren J Stockman, Richard Bellamy和Paul Garner。他们综合评价了世界各地关于SARS治疗所发表的文章。15项关于vitro evidence(体外证据)的研究;54项关于Clinical evidence(临床证据)的研究(其中37篇英文,17篇中文);还有三项是关于治疗ARDS的。
    先看结论:
    “Conclusions
    Despite an extensive literature reporting on SARS treatments, it was not possible to determine whether treatments benefited patients during the SARS outbreak. Some may have been harmful. Clinical trials should be designed to validate a standard protocol for dosage and timing, and to accrue data in real time during future outbreaks to monitor specific adverse effects and help inform treatment.”
    (尽管有大量的文献报道了关于SARS的治疗,但在SARS的爆发期间,是不可能判断出哪种治疗方法是真对患者有益的。有些有可能是有害的。临床实验应该被设计成能验证剂量和时间的标准方案,以及能在未来爆发时实时收集数据以检测具体的不良反应和能够帮助提供治疗信息。)
    这是所有的结论。
    再看关于激素类药物的。
    “Corticosteroids were commonly prescribed to SARS patients with worsening pulmonary disease or progressing abnormalities on chest X-rays. Treatment regimens varied widely but can be classified into two groups, early treatment and rescue treatment given at a later stage of illness. It is difficult to make a clear recommendation about whether corticosteroids should be used to treat SARS-associated lung injury in any stage of illness…”
    (对于肺部疾病恶化或胸部X光检查异常的SARS患者,通常使用激素类药物。治疗方案差异很大,但可以分为两组,即早期治疗和晚期疾病的抢救治疗。很难就是否应该在任何疾病阶段使用激素类药物治疗SARS相关的肺损伤提出明确的建议。)
    你看清楚,激素类药物主要是治疗肺部损伤的,作者只是无法提出明确建议而不是否认。
    后面的中东呼吸症,如果没有对肺部造成严重损伤,为什么要用激素类药物?

  • Corticosteroids were commonly prescribed to SARS patients with worsening pulmonary disease or progressing abnormalities on chest X-rays. Treatment regimens varied widely but can be classified into two groups, early treatment and rescue treatment given at a later stage of illness. It is difficult to make a clear recommendation about whether corticosteroids should be used to treat SARS-associated lung injury in any stage of illness, particularly as the drug is immunosuppressive and may delay viral clearance if given before viral replication is controlled [21]. Of added concern are infectious complications, avascular necrosis, and steroid-induced psychosis—recognized adverse effects of corticosteroid use. Fungal superinfection and aspergillosis have been noted in case reports and autopsy findings of SARS patients given corticosteroids at high doses or for prolonged periods [32,33]. This review has found evidence of avascular necrosis and steroid-induced psychosis in SARS patients
    皮质类固醇通常用于肺部疾病恶化或胸部x光检查出现进展异常的非典患者。治疗方案差异很大,但可以分为两组,早期治疗和疾病后期的抢救治疗。很难就皮质类固醇是否应用于治疗任何疾病阶段的非典相关肺损伤做出明确的建议,特别是因为该药物具有免疫抑制作用,如果在病毒复制得到控制之前使用,可能会延迟病毒清除[21]。更令人担忧的是感染性并发症、缺血性坏死和类固醇诱导的精神病——使用皮质类固醇的公认副作用。在病例报告和尸体解剖发现中,已经注意到给予高剂量皮质类固醇或长期给予皮质类固醇的非典患者出现真菌双重感染和曲霉病,[32,33]。这篇综述发现了非典型肺炎患者出现缺血性坏死和类固醇诱导性精神病的证据。
    ------------------------
    皮质类固醇激素的评价要贴全啊,把不利的部分截掉,断章取义可不好。
    给部分SARS幸存者造成严重后遗症的就是糖皮质激素,不但对SARS疗效存疑,反而有害。
  • 《中东呼吸综合征病例诊疗方案》在病理和临床表现部分都提到对肺部的损伤,如果真的肯定激素治疗的作用,不可能在治疗方案部分针对严重情况完全不提激素治疗。
