30 patients receive treatment of DPMAS, LPE, and comprehensive internal medical treatment.

Other: DPMAS+LPEOther: Comprehensive internal medical treatment

PE group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

30 patients receive treatment of PE and comprehensive internal medical treatment.

Interventions

Patients will receive treatment of double plasma molecular adsorption system (DPMAS) and low volume plasma exchange (LPE) for three times in two weeks. The volume of plasma adsorption in DPMAS is 5000\~6000 millilitre. The volume of fresh frozen plasma used in LPE is 1000 millilitre.
