32351040 Nine patients were on tacrolimus and a mycophenolic antimetabolite, and 70% were on prednisone.
32382516 She completed 5 days of hydroxychloroquine and 7 days of prednisone. […] It is unclear whether our institution’s empiric use of hydroxychloroquine and prednisone facilitated her recovery.
32400931 His maintenance immunosuppressive regime was consisted of tacrolimus (TAC, 1mg twice a day, orally), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF, 0.5g twice a day, orally) and prednisone (Pred, 5mg daily, orally) triple combination.
32419721 In summary, we recommend considering the discontinuation of oral JAK inhibitors and prednisone, considering the delay of rituximab infusion, and the careful continuation of cyclosporine, mycophenolate, azathioprine, methotrexate, and biologics in patients currently benefitting from such treatments.
32436948 We diagnosed SAT and the patient started prednisone.
32471903 In multivariable-adjusted models, prednisone dose ≥10 mg/day was associated with higher odds of hospitalisation (OR 2.05, 95% CI 1.06 to 3.96).
32573882 During hospitalization, calcineurin inhibitors and antimetabolites were held; prednisone was continued.
32583620 All five patients were on immunosuppressive therapy with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and tacrolimus and three that were transplanted within the prior two months were additionally on prednisone.
32646502 The aim of this study is to explore the effectiveness and safety of oral corticosteroids (prednisone) in the treatment of early stage SARS-Cov-2 pneumonia in patients who do not yet meet hospital admission criteria.

32676935 All findings were consistent with SAT, and treatment with oral prednisone (25 mg/day as the starting dose, gradually tapered) was started.
32692733 After finishing steroid treatment at home, the patient was readmitted with another episode of AIP complicated by development of acute necrotic collection and COVID-19 while taking a second course of high dose prednisone. […] The patient was continued on high dose prednisone, started on azathioprine and intravenous meropenem, and underwent CT guided percutaneous drainage.
32703929 Kidney transplant patients encountered COVID-19 were maintained on tacrolimus (Tac, 92%), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF, 78.8%), and prednisone (Pred, 77%) and were manage by holding MMF in 79.1% of patients and holding Tac in 34.4% of patients.
32760619 She was then treated with oral prednisone and subsequently discharged home after a prolonged course of eight days.
32780854 Symptoms disappeared a few days after commencement of treatment (prednisone in 3 patients and ibuprofen in 1).

32961675 There were five corticosteroid regimens, which used dexamethasone, methylprednisolone, or prednisone, with different doses and treatment durations.
32971254 The main exposure variable was corticosteroid therapy at a dose of ≥0.5 mg/kg of prednisone equivalents.
32974243 He responded well to standard-dose prednisone treatment for nephrotic syndrome. […] At 1 week after starting the prednisone treatment, he went into clinical remission. […] The patient responded well to the standard-dose prednisone treatment that is typically used for new-onset nephrotic syndrome.
32979013 Patient received standard prednisone and tacrolimus-based immunosuppression without induction therapy following transplant.

32997868 He was diagnosed with right peripheral facial palsy and was treated with prednisone 60 mg/24h with a tapering schedule.
33011038 Oral prednisone therapy (5 mg) was initiated and the patient was discharged on a continued prednisone taper.
33041077 The large proportion of infected individuals were minorities (Hispanic 65.9%, black 14.6%), on prednisone, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil (95.1%, 87.8%, and 87.8%, respectively), and had excellent allograft function (median 1.25 mg/dL).
33048372 We compared three groups based on immunosuppression regimen 7-12 months posttransplant: 1) tacrolimus (Tac)+mycophenolic acid (MPA)+prednisone (Pred) (referent group, 77.7%); 2) Tac+MPA+Pred+HCQ (16.5%); or 3) other immunosuppression+HCQ (5.7%).
33067320 Six patients (10%) had definite or probable COVID-19, but all recovered uneventfully, including two still on ICI and on low-to-moderate dose prednisone.
33070314 On follow-up, most patients presented almost complete resolution, although six patients required prednisone and antiaggregant drug treatment.
33076856 The upward trend did not begin until June 2020 and she took the tapering dose of prednisone under the instruction of the hematologist.
33100064 A diuretic was administered, and prednisone was gradually reduced along with tacrolimus. […] Patients who develop COVID-19 after kidney transplantation are at risk of acute kidney injury, and their prednisone, immunosuppressant, and gamma globulin treatment must be adjusted according to their condition.
33106469 Liver transplant patients infected with COVID-19 were maintained on Tac (79%), mycophenolate (MMF) (48.4%), and Prednisone (29.6%) and were managed by reducing MMF in 14.3% of patients and reducing Tac in 14.3% of patients; 28.6% of patients needed ICU admission, 13.6% of patients had died, and the reported general population COVID-19 mortality rate was 3.4%.
33137493 In a large HMO in Brazil, our approach was to allow treating physicians to prescribe antiviral medications immediately at presentation, and prednisone starting on day-6 of symptoms to treat pulmonary inflammation. […] Use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), prednisone or both significantly reduced hospitalization risk by 50-60%. […] Similar magnitudes of reduced risk with HCQ and prednisone use were seen for mortality risk, though were not significant because of only 11 deaths among the 717 patients.
33160408 Offspring whose father filled at least one prescription of the following medications in the 3 months preceding conception were considered exposed: chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, losartan, azithromycin, naproxen, dexamethasone and prednisone. […] For hydroxychloroquine and prednisone, exposure was limited (< 300 offspring).
33194871 He was treated with hydroxychloroquine, IV dexamethasone and ruxolitinib with rapid improvement of respiratory failure; 1 month after the second discharge, maintaining low-dose oral prednisone, lung consolidations were significantly reduced on control CT.

33301283 High-dose oral prednisone with taper, intratympanic dexamethasone. […] The patient was treated with two courses of high-dose oral prednisone with taper and a left intratympanic dexamethasone injection, resulting in near-resolution of vestibular symptoms, a fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss in the right ear, and a severe to profound mixed hearing loss in the left ear.
33301928 We used routine care data from 51 hospitals in France and Luxembourg to assess the effectiveness of corticosteroids at 0.8 mg/kg/day eq. prednisone (CTC group) versus standard of care (no-CTC group) among adults 18 to 80 years old with confirmed COVID-19 pneumonia requiring oxygen without mechanical ventilation.
33331521 We report on a case of a young female patient with a severe Crohn’s disease that presented with COVID-19 pneumonia and a favorable outcome even maintaining the use of adalimumab, TNF - alpha inhibitor and prednisone. […] This case raises the hypothesis that aside from prednisone, TNF-α inhibitors such as adalimumab could be used to stop the progression to COVID-19 complications by blocking the TNF-alpha-driven inflammatory process that occurs in severe COVID-19.
33335817 Treatment started with antibiotics, prophylactic enoxaparin (40-mg subcutaneous once daily), methyl prednisone 60 mg BD and multivitamins.
33336061 The patient used hydroxychloroquine and prednisone chronically to control the SLE. […] After infection of SARS-CoV-2, she was given higher dose of prednisone than before and the same dosage of hydroxychloroquine.
33380371 Retrospective observational study that includes patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and compares admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) or death during hospitalization in three groups of patients: no glucocorticoids treatment, use of glucocorticoids doses equivalent to less than 250mg of prednisone daily and use of equivalent doses greater than or equal to 250mg of prednisone daily. […] Comparative analyzes between different glucocorticoids treatments and the association with ICU admission or death were: glucocorticoids treatment (any dose) versus no glucocorticoids treatment (OR: 0.71 [0.30-1.66]), treatment with glucocorticoids (≥250mg prednisone daily) versus no glucocorticoids treatment (OR: 0.35 [0.11-1.08]) and glucocorticoids treatment (≥250mg prednisone daily) versus patients with glucocorticoids doses <250mg prednisone daily or without glucocorticoids treatment (OR: 0.30 [0.10-0.88]). […] The results of this study show that patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia treated with glucocorticoids pulses with equivalent doses of prednisone greater than or equal to 250mg have a more favorable evolution (less mortality and less admission to ICU).
33410884 Of these, 108 (5%) were classified as immunosuppressed before COVID-19, primarily with prednisone (>7.5 mg/day), tacrolimus, or mycophenolate mofetil.
33451758 Since the transplant, these 2 patients have received triple maintenance immunosuppressive therapy with oral tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and prednisone, and they have been regularly followed up at our hospital.
33457205 The patient presented an improvement in skin lesions by the fifth day of prednisone therapy.
33499887 To evaluate the efficacy of early treatment with prednisone to decrease the progression of COVID-19 pneumonia. […] Experimental arm Prednisone 40 mg days 1 to 4. […] Then Prednisone 20 mg days 5 to 8.
33510992 The patient was provided symptomatic treatment with prednisone and atenolol and had an uneventful recovery.
33529638 The WM group received antiviral therapy (including abidor capsule 0.2 g po, tid; Lopinavir-Ritonavir tablets, 500 mg po, bid), antibiotics (such as cefoperazone, 2 g iv, bid; moxifloxacin hydrochloride tablets, 0.4 g po, qd) or corticosteroid therapy (such as methylprednisolone succinate sodium, 40mg, iv, 40 mg, qd; prednisone, 30 mg po, qd).
33532070 Our protocol of treatment was based on early use of prednisone (25 mg in the morning and 12.5 mg in the afternoon) and low molecular weight heparin (4000 UI one or two times daily) initiated just after the positivity of molecular nasopharyngeal test (about 3-4 days as mean time after initiation of symptomatology and not after 7-8 days as suggested by other protocols) and oxygen therapy when necessary.
33546739 In case of indication, it is recommended: dexamethasone 6mg/d p.o. or iv for 10 days or methylprednisolone 32mg/d orally or 30mg iv for 10 days or prednisone 40mg day p.o. for 10 days.
33567251 The patients were treated with a high dose of corticosteroids (prednisone 1 mg/kg PO), showing marked clinical improvement, and decreasing oxygen flow ratio demand.
33572634 The t (2; 5) chromosomal rearrangement of the ALK gene with nucleophosmin 1 gene (NPM1), resulting in an NPM1-ALK fusion, was first demonstrated in 1994 in anaplastic large cell lymphoma, (ALCL), a T-cell lymphoma responsive to cyclophosphamide, abriblastine, vincristine and prednisone in approximately 80% of cases; refractory cases usually respond favorably to brentuximab vedotin.
33585689 Retrospective observational study that includes patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and compares admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) or death during hospitalization in three groups of patients: no glucocorticoids treatment, use of glucocorticoids doses equivalent to less than 250 mg of prednisone daily and use of equivalent doses greater than or equal to 250 mg of prednisone daily. […] Comparative analyzes between different glucocorticoids treatments and the association with ICU admission or death were: glucocorticoids treatment (any dose) versus no glucocorticoids treatment (OR: 0.71 (0.30-1.66)), treatment with glucocorticoids (≥ 250 mg prednisone daily) versus no glucocorticoids treatment (OR: 0.35 (0.11-1.08)) and glucocorticoids treatment (≥ 250 mg prednisone daily) versus patients with glucocorticoids doses <250 mg prednisone daily or without glucocorticoids treatment (OR: 0.30 (0.10-0.88)). […] The results of this study show that patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia treated with glucocorticoids pulses with equivalent doses of prednisone greater than or equal to 250 mg have a more favorable evolution (less mortality and less admission to ICU).
