Summary

Glucocorticoids are widely used for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. In 2008, it was estimated that 0.8% of the United Kingdom adult population had used long-term (≥ 3 months) glucocorticoids, rising to 3% in women aged over 80 years.

The aim of the project is to investigate the dose-response estimates of risk of high blood pressure associated with oral glucocorticoids.
