Abstract

Objective Despite published guidelines no unified approach to hormone replacement in congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) exists. We aimed to explore geographical and temporal variations in the treatment with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in CAH. Design This retrospective multi-center study, including 31 centers (16 countries), analyzed data from the International-CAH Registry. Methods Data were collected from 461 patients aged 0–18 years with classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency (54.9% females) under follow-up between 1982 and 2018. Type, dose and timing of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid replacement were analyzed from 4174 patient visits. Results The most frequently used glucocorticoid was hydrocortisone (87.6%). Overall, there were significant differences between age groups with regards to daily hydrocortisone-equivalent dose for body surface, with the lowest dose (median with interquartile range) of 12.0 (10.0–14.5) mg/m2/day at age 1–8 years and the highest dose of 14.0 (11.6–17.4) mg/m2/day at age 12–18 years. Glucocorticoid doses decreased after 2010 in patients 0–8 years (P < 0.001) and remained unchanged in patients aged 8–18 years. Fludrocortisone was used in 92% of patients, with relative doses decreasing with age. A wide variation was observed among countries with regards to all aspects of steroid hormone replacement. Conclusions Data from the I-CAH Registry suggests international variations in hormone replacement therapy, with a tendency to treatment with high doses in children.

Abstract

Importance: Evidence regarding corticosteroid use for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is limited.Objective: To determine whether hydrocortisone improves outcome for patients with severe COVID-19.Design, Setting, and Participants: An ongoing adaptive platform trial testing multiple interventions within multiple therapeutic domains, for example, antiviral agents, corticosteroids, or immunoglobulin. Between March 9 and June 17, 2020, 614 adult patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 were enrolled and randomized within at least 1 domain following admission to an intensive care unit (ICU) for respiratory or cardiovascular organ support at 121 sites in 8 countries. Of these, 403 were randomized to open-label interventions within the corticosteroid domain. The domain was halted after results from another trial were released. Follow-up ended August 12, 2020.Interventions: The corticosteroid domain randomized participants to a fixed 7-day course of intravenous hydrocortisone (50 mg or 100 mg every 6 hours) (n = 143), a shock-dependent course (50 mg every 6 hours when shock was clinically evident) (n = 152), or no hydrocortisone (n = 108).Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary end point was organ support-free days (days alive and free of ICU-based respiratory or cardiovascular support) within 21 days, where patients who died were assigned -1 day. The primary analysis was a bayesian cumulative logistic model that included all patients enrolled with severe COVID-19, adjusting for age, sex, site, region, time, assignment to interventions within other domains, and domain and intervention eligibility. Superiority was defined as the posterior probability of an odds ratio greater than 1 (threshold for trial conclusion of superiority >99%).Results: After excluding 19 participants who withdrew consent, there were 384 patients (mean age, 60 years; 29% female) randomized to the fixed-dose (n = 137), shock-dependent (n = 146), and no (n = 101) hydrocortisone groups; 379 (99%) completed the study and were included in the analysis. The mean age for the 3 groups ranged between 59.5 and 60.4 years; most patients were male (range, 70.6%-71.5%); mean body mass index ranged between 29.7 and 30.9; and patients receiving mechanical ventilation ranged between 50.0% and 63.5%. For the fixed-dose, shock-dependent, and no hydrocortisone groups, respectively, the median organ support-free days were 0 (IQR, -1 to 15), 0 (IQR, -1 to 13), and 0 (-1 to 11) days (composed of 30%, 26%, and 33% mortality rates and 11.5, 9.5, and 6 median organ support-free days among survivors). The median adjusted odds ratio and bayesian probability of superiority were 1.43 (95% credible interval, 0.91-2.27) and 93% for fixed-dose hydrocortisone, respectively, and were 1.22 (95% credible interval, 0.76-1.94) and 80% for shock-dependent hydrocortisone compared with no hydrocortisone. Serious adverse events were reported in 4 (3%), 5 (3%), and 1 (1%) patients in the fixed-dose, shock-dependent, and no hydrocortisone groups, respectively.Conclusions and Relevance: Among patients with severe COVID-19, treatment with a 7-day fixed-dose course of hydrocortisone or shock-dependent dosing of hydrocortisone, compared with no hydrocortisone, resulted in 93% and 80% probabilities of superiority with regard to the odds of improvement in organ support-free days within 21 days. However, the trial was stopped early and no treatment strategy met prespecified criteria for statistical superiority, precluding definitive conclusions.Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02735707.

Abstract

PURPOSE: To compare the resistance of skin wound healing of mice submitted to local or systemic hydrocortisone administration, in different postoperative periods. METHODS: An incision and suture was performed on the thoracic skin of 130 male mice: Group 1 (n = 10) resistance of the integer skin; Group 2 (n = 30) submitted only to skin incision and suture; Group 3 (n = 30) skin incision and suture followed by administration of saline fluid; Group 4 (n = 30) skin incision and suture followed by administration of local hydrocortisone; Group 5 (n = 30) skin incision and suture followed by administration of systemic hydrocortisone. The resistance of the wound healing and the weight of the animals were studied on the seventh, 14th and 21st postoperative days. Histological examination was also performed. RESULTS: The mice that received corticoid (groups 4 and 5) presented significant decreasing on their weight (p = 0.02). The Groups 3, 4 and 5 showed lower scar resistance than Group 2 on the seventh postoperative day (p < 0.05). On the 14th and 21st days, there was no difference on the skin would healing resistance (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Administration of hydrocortisone in mice is responsible for weight decreasing and reduction of the skin wound healing resistance during the first postoperative week. OBJETIVO: Comparar a resistência cicatricial cutânea de camundongos submetidos a administração de hidrocortisona por diferentes vias e em distintos períodos pós-operatórios. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados 130 camundongos machos submetidos à incisão e sutura de pele da região dorsal do tórax: Grupo 1 (n = 10) resistência da pele íntegra; Grupo 2 (n = 30) incisão da pele e sutura, sem administração de corticóide; Grupo 3 (n = 30) incisão da pele e sutura, seguidas de injeção local de solução salina; Grupo 4 (n = 30) incisão da pele e sutura, seguidas de injeção local de hidrocortisona e Grupo 5 (n = 30) incisão da pele e sutura, seguidas de injeção intraperitoneal de hidrocortisona. Foram avaliadas a resistência cicatricial da pele e a variação ponderal no sétimo, 14º e 21º dias pós-operatórios, bem como sua histologia. RESULTADOS: Os camundongos que receberam hidrocortisona tiveram decréscimo ponderal (p = 0,02). Quanto à resistência cicatricial da pele, os Grupos 3, 4 e 5 apresentaram valor inferior ao Grupo 2, no sétimo dia pós-operatório (p = 0,031). No 14º e 21º dias, não houve diferença entre as tensões cicatriciais. CONCLUSÃO: A administração de hidrocortisona provoca redução ponderal em camundongos e a resistência cicatricial cutânea é menor na primeira semana pós-operatória.

Abstract

The inhibitory action of physiological to pathophysiological serum cortisol levels on TSH secretion were investigated in 12 patients with Addison's disease on 3 occasions. 1) In continuation of the conventional hydrocortisone (HC) substitution, a medium dose of HC (0.5 mg/kg) was infused over 23 h. 2) After 24-h withdrawal of HC, the patients had placebo infusion over 23 h. 3) After 5 days of dexamethasone (1.5 mg/day), a high dose of HC (2.0 mg/kg) was infused over 23 h. Blood sampling was performed every 10 min during the last 10 h of the study period, followed by a TRH test (10 micrograms, iv), To mimic the normal diurnal rhythm for serum cortisol, HC was infused in graduated doses, and during medium dose infusion, the serum cortisol level and the TSH pulsatility pattern were similar to those seen in normal controls. The TSH mean level was 1.0 +/- 0.5 mU/L during medium doses of HC, increasing significantly (P < 0.05) to 2.0 +/- 1.6 mU/L during the low cortisol state and was significantly (P < 0.05) suppressed to 0.4 +/- 0.2 mU/L during high doses of glucocorticoids, when the pulse frequency was also significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Together with a dose-dependent inhibitory action of glucocorticoids on the TSH response to TRH, our data indicate that even physiological serum levels of cortisol have an influence on endogenous TSH secretion, probably caused by regulation of the pituitary sensitivity to TRH.
