摘要：
Several studies show that the application of oral glucocorticoids in patients with active RA leads to fast resolution of disease activity [1]. Treatment strategies that include the initial application of glucocorticoids seem to have a favourable outcome in terms of long-term control of disease activity [2]. Moreover, when tapered down to low doses, glucocorticoids show disease-modifying actions such as the inhibition of progression of structural damage to the inflamed joints [3]. The goal of this study was to examine the predictors of short-term response to intermediate-dose glucocorticoids in patients with active RA.
