prednisone and Injuries, Spinal Cord

prednisone has been researched along with Injuries, Spinal Cord in 4 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The ability of intensive dosing with the glucocorticoid steroid methylprednisolone to beneficially affect post-traumatic ischemia and to promote chronic neurologic recovery in spinal cord injured animals has been correlated not with its glucocorticoid activity, but rather with the ability to inhibit post-traumatic spinal lipid peroxidation."2.37New pharmacological treatment of acute spinal cord trauma. ( Braughler, JM; Hall, ED; McCall, JM, 1988)
"Prednisone therapy was continued until the patient was discharged on hospital day 5, at which time the dosage was tapered."1.29Reversal of erythema multiforme major with cyclophosphamide and prednisone. ( Cole, GW; Eastham, JH; Gómez, MF; Segal, JL, 1996)
