Cure rate of giant cell arteritis

Giant cell arteritis

is a vascular inflammatory disease that mainly affects the large and medium arteries and occurs in people over the age of 50. The cause is not yet clear, but it is often related to factors such as intimal hyperplasia, vascular stenosis, and vascular wall thickening. With current clinical medical methods, it cannot be cured, so there is no cure rate. However, patients can be treated with prednisone, methylprednisolone, cyclophosphamide and other drugs under the guidance of doctors to help improve disease symptoms and improve quality of life.

Patients should develop good living habits and ensure adequate sleep. They can eat more nutritious foods such as eggs, milk and beef, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
