Figure 1 Inflammation improvement of the patients with RA via
treatment with 99Tc-MDP or and glucocorticoidsInflammatory markers of ESR and CRP were detected after treatment of99Tc-MDP and or oral glucocorticoids and before in the
two groups (A & B). Disease activity of DAS28ESR or CPRchanged before and treated with 99Tc-MDP and or oral
glucocorticoids in the two groups (C & D). The inflammatory markers and
DAS28 ESR or CRP were decreased significantly after
treatment, all P values < 0.05 in the two groups. In Figure1,
before and after the treatment of 99Tc-MDP or and oral
glucocorticoids were also called as Baseline and treated.
