View clinical trials related to Adrenal Insufficiency.
Filter by:Development of glucocorticoid (GC)-induced adrenal insufficiency is a serious adverse effect of GC treatment. It is today not possible to predict this adverse effect. The project aims at investigating a possible individual aspect, which may render subjects more or less sensitive to glucocorticoids, and thereby influence development of GC induced adrenal insufficiency. The hypothesis is that subjects with one or another of the polymorphisms in the GC receptor gene will either have increased or diminished GC sensitivity. This may be responsible for differences in development of GC induced adrenal insufficiency.
Observational study about the incidence of relative adrenal insufficiency in patients with cirrhosis and acute variceal bleeding; in patients with acute peptic gastrointestinal bleeding and without liver disease; and in patients with severe acute pancreatitis. This is a study using pharmaceutical specialties in the approved conditions of use.
