Summary

A high frequency of adrenal dysfunction (AD) has been reported in severe acute hepatitis (SAH) using the dosage of serum total cortisol (STC). Because 90% of circulating serum cortisol is bound to proteins that are altered in SAH, we aimed to investigate the effect of decreased cortisol-binding proteins on STC, serum free cortisol (SFC) and salivary cortisol (SalivCort) in SAH.

Baseline (T0) and cosyntropin-stimulated (T60) STC, SFC and SalivCort concentrations were measured
