Systemic Corticosteroids for Autoimmune/Inflammatory Disorders in Children Introduction -- Corticosteroids in the Treatment of Childhood Rheumatic Diseases: An Historical Review -- Systemic Corticosteroids for Autoimmune/Inflammatory Disorders in Children -- The clinical pharmacology of past, present, and future glucocorticoids -- The molecular mechanisms responsible for the anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects of glucocorticoids -- CORTICOSTEROIDS IN JUVENILE IDIOPATHIC ARTHRITIS -- Systemic Corticosteroids in Childhood Vasculitides -- Steroids in paediatric-onset SLE and other connective tissue diseases -- GLUCOCORTICOID IN PEDIATRIC GASTROINTESTINAL DISORDERS -- CORTICOSTEROIDS IN PEDIATRIC DERMATOLOGY -- Corticosteroids in pediatric endocrinology -- SYSTEMIC CORTICOSTEROIDS IN RESPIRATORY DISEASES IN CHILDREN -- Corticosteroids in Paediatric Nephrology -- Corticosteroids in neonatology: Postnatal corticosteroids in preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)

This comprehensive volume provides the current state of the art use of corticosteroids in the pediatric age group. The book consists of 14 chapters written by leading authors from around the world. The first chapters deal with historical notes, general concepts on treatment with corticosteroids with regard to indications and side effects, and the basic pharmacologic properties of these compounds. The rest of the book is devoted to the specific use of corticosteroids in the different pediatric subspecialties. Despite advances with newer effective immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids still remain the mainstay of therapy for many disorders.
