To read the full abstract: Lancet Respir Med. 2018; 6(6): 442–450.Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are widely used by patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although ICS are generally well tolerated and have fewer systemic adverse effects than oral corticosteroids, some patients develop systemic adverse effects. Adrenal suppression is a clinically i...

Nat Commun. 2021 Feb 11;12(1):959.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33574239/The authors report a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of autoimmune Addison’s disease (AAD) in 1223 cases (defined as autoimmune adrenal failure plus positive serum autoantibodies against 21-hydroxylase) and 4097 healthy controls. Patients with APS-1 were identified and excluded. They identified 9 genome-wid...
