Description of recent studies evaluating growth and inhaled corticosteroids.
Corticosteroids are the gold standard of asthma maintenance treatment, but effects on growth remain controversial. This is a review of recent research in this area, which has focused on medications causing less adrenal suppression as well as alternative regimens for chronic illness such as asthma.
The use of newer corticosteroids and regimens shows short-term evidence of minimal growth effects without worsening of asthma control.
描述最近评估生长和吸入皮质类固醇的研究。
皮质类固醇是哮喘维持治疗的金标准，但对生长的影响仍存在争议。这是对该领域最近研究的综述，重点是引起较少肾上腺抑制作用的药物以及哮喘等慢性疾病的替代方案。
使用较新的皮质类固醇和方案显示出短期对生长影响最小的证据，同时不会使哮喘控制恶化。
