Abstract
ABSTRACT Some clinical and metabolic effects of 6α-chloro-prednisolone and prednisolone have been compared in 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Most of the results are summarized in Table 1. An equal maintenance in rheumatoid arthritis could be obtained with 15 mg/day of prednisolone and 12 mg/day of 6α-chloro-prednisolone.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
