Background and aim: Identifying patients with glucocorticoid-induced adrenal insufficiency poses a challenge. We investigated whether factors associated with exogenous hypercortisolism (as a proxy of overall elevated glucocorticoid exposure) could predict the risk of glucocorticoid-induced adrenal insufficiency in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica and/or giant cell arteritis during long-term low-dose prednisolone treatment.Material and methods: Baseli...
