Abstract

Introduction: Relapses of multiple sclerosis (MS) are usually treated with high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP), given over 3–10 days. There is no consensus on the optimal duration of treatment. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether longer treatment provides additional short-term clinical benefits assessed by the change in plasma cytokine levels and EDSS scores in patients with relapsing–remitting MS (RRMS). Methods: Forty RRMS patients during relapse were grouped into 3 and treated with 1 g/day of IVMP for either 5, 7, or 10 consecutive days. Results: Levels of IL-10 and IL-12 were analyzed, and EDSS scores were noted before treatment, after treatment (on days 6, 8, or 11) and at the h week. IVMP treatment significantly induced anti-inflammatory IL-10 levels but had no effect on IL-12 levels. IVMP treatment for 7 or 10 consecutive days was not significantly different than that for 5 days in terms of the change in IL-12, IL-10 levels or clinical outcome. Conclusion: In conclusion, pulse high-dose IVMP treatment enhances functional recovery in patients with acute relapses of RRMS. In addition, IVMP treatment significantly increases the levels of IL-10 but has no effect on the levels of IL-12 in the short term.

Özet

Amaç: Multipl skleroz (MS) relapsları genellikle 3-10 gün sürelerle verilen yüksek doz intravenöz metilprednizolon (IVMP) ile tedavi edilir. En uygun tedavi süresine ilişkin ise bir konsensus kararı yoktur. Biz de bu çalışma ile relaps ve remisyonlar ile seyreden MS (RRMS) tanılı hastalarda atak sırasında daha uzun sürelerle uygulanan IVMP tedavisinin, hastalarda plazma sitokin düzeyleri ve EDSS skorları ile değerlendirilecek olan, ilave klinik faydalar sağlayıp sağlamayacağını araştırmayı amaçladık Yöntem: Akut atak geçiren 40 RRMS hastası 5, 7 ya da 10 gün süreyle 1g/gün IVMP alacak şekilde 3 gruba ayrıldı. IL-10 ve IL-12 düzeyleri ile EDSS skorları tedavi öncesinde, tedavi bitiminde (6, 8 ya da 11. günde) ve 4. haftada analiz edildi. Bulgular: IVMP tedavisinin anti-inflamatuvar IL-10 düzeylerini anlamlı olarak arttırdığı ancak IL-12 düzeyleri üzerine etkisinin olmadığı görüldü. IL-12 ve IL-10 düzeyleri ya da klinik netice üzerinde 7 ya da 10 gün süreyle uygulanan IVMP tedavisinin 5 günlük uygulamaya göre anlamlı farklılık sağlamadığı saptandı. Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, yüksek doz IVMP tedavisi akut atağı olan MS hastalarında fonksiyonel iyileşmeye yardımcı olmaktadır. Buna ilaveten, IVMP tedavisi kısa vadede IL-10 düzeylerini arttırmakta, ancak IL-12 düzeylerini değiştirmemektedir.
