prednisone and Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections

prednisone has been researched along with Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections in 7 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.

Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections: Infections caused by bacteria that show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The authors report the occurrence of fatal or near-fatal sepsis in 16 of 38 children with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treated with a new induction regimen that differed from its predecessor by the substitution of dexamethasone for prednisone."3.70Substituting dexamethasone for prednisone complicates remission induction in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. ( Clavell, LA; Dalton, VK; Gelber, RD; Glick, KM; Hurwitz, CA; Sallan, SE; Schorin, MA; Silverman, LB, 2000)
" The distribution of adverse prognostic factors was comparable in the two-induction arm."2.70Daunorubicin continuous infusion induces more toxicity than bolus infusion in acute lymphoblastic leukemia induction regimen: a randomized study. ( Bernard, M; Casassus, P; Delain, M; Desablens, B; Guilhot, F; Hunault-Berger, M; Ifrah, N; Jouet, JP; Milpied, N; Sadoun, A, 2001)
