The recovery of adrenocortical function during long-term corticosteroid treatment in a group of patients with asthmatic bronchitis was compared with that in a group of patients with sarcoidosis. At corresponding dosages of prednisone basal adrenocortical function as well as adrenocortical response to tetracosactrin stimulation was higher in the asthma patients than in those with sarcoidosis.The rate of recovery of adrenocortical function seems mainly to be determined by the dosage of corticosteroids during the initial stages of treatment rather than by the nature of the disease.
将一组哮喘性支气管炎患者与一组结节病患者在长期使用皮质类固醇治疗期间肾上腺皮质功能的恢复情况进行了比较。在泼尼松剂量相当的情况下,哮喘患者的基础肾上腺皮质功能以及对二十四肽促皮质素刺激的肾上腺皮质反应均高于结节病患者。肾上腺皮质功能的恢复速率似乎主要取决于治疗初始阶段皮质类固醇的剂量,而非疾病的性质。
