Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the nasal and paranasal sinuses of approximately 11.5% of the United States adult population. Oral corticosteroids are effective in controlling sinonasal inflammation in CRS, but the associated adverse effects limit their clinical use. Topical budesonide has demonstrated clinical efficacy in patients with CRS. Herein, we investigated the systemic delivery of liposomes tethered with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and loaded with budesonide in a murine model of CRS. PEGylated liposomes encapsulated with budesonide phosphate (L-BudP) were administered via tail vein injection, and the feasibility of L-BudP to reduce sinonasal inflammation was compared to that of free budesonide phosphate (F-BudP) and topical budesonide phosphate (T-BudP) treatment over a 14-day study period. Compared to a single injection of F-BudP and repeat T-BudP administration, a single injection of L-BudP demonstrated increased and prolonged efficacy, resulting in the significant improvement of sinonasal tissue histopathological scores (p < 0.05) with decreased immune cell infiltration (p < 0.05). Toxicities associated with L-BudP and T-BudP treatment, assessed via body and organ weight, as well as peripheral blood liver enzyme and differential white blood cell analyses, were transient and comparable. These data suggest that systemic liposomal budesonide treatment results in improved efficacy over topical treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to any form of glucocorticoid preparation is associated with a risk of adrenal insufficiency (AI). OBJECTIVE To establish the contribution of oral corticosteroid (OCS) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) exposure to the risk of AI in a cohort of patients (n = 80) with severe, uncontrolled asthma. METHODS We compiled individualized cumulative OCS and ICS exposure data using a combination of health care records and electronic inhaler monitoring using an Inhaler Compliance Assessment device and estimated the risk of AI for each participant using a morning serum cortisol concentration. RESULTS The predicted prevalence of AI based on morning cortisol concentrations was 25% (20 of 80). Participants on maintenance OCS therapy had the highest risk of AI at 60% (6 of 10) compared with 17% (11 of 65) in those with no recent OCS exposure. Morning serum cortisol correlated negatively with both OCS exposure (mg/kg prednisolone) (r = -0.4; P < .0002) and ICS exposure (mg/kg fluticasone propionate) (r = -0.26; P = .019). Logistic regression of risk of AI against the number of standard treatment courses of OCS demonstrated a positive relationship although this did not reach statistical significance (odds ratio, 1.41; 95% CI, 0.97-2.05; P = .073). Logistic regression analysis, categorizing patients as high-risk AI (cortisol <130 nmol/L) or not (cortisol >130 nmol/L), showed that cumulative ICS exposure remained a significant predictor of AI, even when exposure to OCS was controlled for (odds ratio, 2.17 per 1 mg/kg increase in cumulative fluticasone propionate exposure; 95% CI, 1.06-4.42; P = .033). CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that AI is common among patients with asthma and highlights that the risk of AI is associated with both high-dose ICS therapy and intermittent treatment courses of OCS.

Abstract
Die Therapiemöglichkeiten der schweren atopischen Dermatitis waren bis vor Kurzem sehr begrenzt und haben sich mit der Zulassung des ersten Biologikums Dupilumab Ende 2017 bis heute deutlich verbessert. Aktuell wurden mit dem Biologikum Tralokinumab sowie den Januskinase-Inhibitoren Baricitinib und Upadacitinib weitere neue Systemtherapeutika zugelassen. Dennoch gibt es Fälle, in denen es zur Nichtberücksichtigung moderner Behandlungsmöglichkeiten kommt, wie die Falldarstellung eines 28-jährigen Patienten mit schwerwiegenden Nebenwirkungen einer Langzeitbehandlung mit systemischen Glukokortikosteroiden zeigt. Neben der umfangreichen Abklärung der Folgeschäden, erfolgten die Einleitung einer leitliniengerechten Therapie mit Dupilumab sowie eine interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit mit Endokrinologen, Ophthalmologen, Osteologen und Ernährungsmedizinern.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We examined the effect of cumulative exposure to high doses of oral glucocorticoids on fracture risk. Compared to short-course users (daily dose ≥ 15 mg + cumulative < 1 g), heavy users (daily dose ≥ 15 mg + cumulative dose ≥ 1 g) had the highest risk of fracture. These patients should be monitored for fracture management strategies. PURPOSE The effect of cumulative exposure to high daily doses of oral glucocorticoids on fracture risk remains debated. We therefore aimed to examine the hip fracture risk associated with short courses and heavy use of high-dosed oral glucocorticoids. METHODS We conducted a population-based case-control study using the Danish National Health Service data, 1996-2011. Cases were those aged ≥ 18 years who sustained a hip (primary outcome) fracture (n = 81,342). Vertebral and forearm fractures were considered in secondary analyses. Controls (matched 1:1) were those without a fracture. Average daily dose (DD) and total cumulative dose (CD) were calculated among current oral glucocorticoid users. Among patients with a high daily dose (DD ≥ 15 mg), we identified short-course users as those with a CD < 1 g and heavy users as those with a CD ≥ 1 g. We estimated adjusted odds ratio (adj.OR) of fracture with current glucocorticoid use compared to never-use, using conditional logistic regression. RESULTS A high DD (≥ 15 mg) and high CD (≥ 1 g) were independently associated with an increased hip fracture risk (adj.OR 2.5; 95% CI 2.2-2.9; adj.OR 1.6; 95% CI 1.5-1.8, respectively). However, the risk was substantially increased among heavy users (DD ≥ 15 mg and CD ≥ 1 g: adj.OR 2.9; 95% CI 2.5-3.4) as compared to short-course users (DD ≥ 15 mg and CD < 1 g: adj.OR 1.4; 95% CI 1.1-1.9). Associations were stronger for vertebral fractures, yet little association was identified for forearm fractures. CONCLUSION Among patients receiving a high DD (≥ 15 mg), heavy users (≥ 1 g CD) showed the most substantial increase in hip fracture risk. Among those receiving high DD, a threshold of 1 g CD may identify heavy users that are candidates for focused fracture management services.

Abstract
Introduction Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) is one of the common illnesses in childhood. Oral glucocorticoids are mainstay of treatment, which are known to cause various short term and long term adverse effects including osteoporosis. Children with first episode and infrequent relapsing NS are not prescribed Calcium (Ca) and Vitamin D (VitD) supplements routinely. Aim To observe change in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in children during first episode of NS and role of VitD and Ca supplementation during the treatment of first episode of NS. Materials and Methods A double blind randomized control trial was conducted in Department of Paediatrics at a tertiary care center in New Delhi, India, from October 2011 to March 2013. Three groups were made, each having sample size of 20. Group A (intervention group) consisted of first episode NS patients who received steroids along with VitD and Ca supplements. Group B (placebo group) had children with first episode of NS treated with steroids and placebo. Biochemical tests and BMD assessment were done at start and after three months of steroid treatment. Groupwise differences in BMD, VitD, Ca, Phosphate (PO4) and Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) were assessed at baseline and after three months through Analysis Of Variance (ANOVA). Linear regression models for repeated measures were used to test the association between different variables and BMD and also between various study groups. Results Among study population, Group B had significant decrease in VitD levels (28.85±5.52 ng/dl to 14.22±1.36 ng/dl) than to Group A (23.59±6.08 ng/dl to 13.27±1.35 ng/dl) after three months of steroid treatment. Similarly BMD decreased significantly in Group B (-0.033g/cm2) as compared to Group A (0.001g/cm2) showing significant decrease in VitD and BMD in children with first episode of NS after three months of steroid treatment whereas use of VitD and Ca supplements improves the deficit. Conclusion Ca and VitD supplement should be used during treatment of first episode of NS, but further studies are required to ascertain the adequate dose for the same.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Little data exist on the frequency of fracture among oral glucocorticoid users. We examined the effect of oral glucocorticoids on fracture incidence using data from randomized controlled trials. Patients starting glucocorticoids had a higher probability of fracture and decline in bone mineral density compared to chronic glucocorticoid users. INTRODUCTION Oral glucocorticoids (GCs) are the leading cause of secondary osteoporosis. However, there have been few studies that quantify the rate of fracture among GC users. We sought to provide a pooled estimate of fracture risk from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of GC-treated patients. METHODS We updated a MEDLINE search published by the American College of Rheumatology through to March 2015 and identified RCTs of osteoporosis therapies that reported fracture and bone mineral density (BMD) among oral GC users. We restricted the analysis to placebo or control arms. RCT arms were stratified by GC exposure at enrolment to GC initiators (≤6 months) and chronic GC users (>6 months). Bayesian meta-regression was used to estimate the annual probability of vertebral fracture (primary), non-vertebral fracture and percentage change in lumbar spine and femoral neck BMD. RESULTS The annual incidence of vertebral and non-vertebral fracture was 5.1 % (95 % CrI = 2.8-8.2) and 2.5 % (95 % CrI = 1.2--4.2) among GC initiators, and 3.2 % (95 % CrI = 1.8-5.0) and 3.0 % (95 % CrI = 0.8-5.9) among chronic GC users. Our meta-regression identified a non-significant effect of group-level variables (mean age, mean BMD, mean GC daily dose, patients with previous vertebral fractures, proportion of women and adjuvant used) on vertebral fracture rate. CONCLUSION Our study found higher vertebral fracture incidence among GC initiators, yet a relative decline in fracture incidence with longer exposure. Our findings suggest that fracture incidence among oral GC users may be more common than previously estimated. Optimizing GC-induced osteoporosis management during early exposure to GC is essential to prevent fractures.
