    Stands to reason. The pneumonia presents a hypoxia challenge, which increases acidity and systemic inflammation. Systemic inflammation disrupts all sorts of functions. Knock that down and the body can fight the fight it needs to without interference.

    • @__________5737

      You shouldn’t feel bad. Such a trial is entirely ethical. They are testing an intervention (a steroid here) without knowledge about the outcome. An intervention could have turned out the other way entirely causing more harm than good. Trials are stopped early if there is clear benefit earlier than planned to allow treatment of everyone.

    Important to notice that in this study they didn't exclude groups that we in the medical community already recognize as reaping benefits from corticoid therapy during CAP such as asthmatics and patients with Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. AS such the decrease in mortality could be heavily influenced by these patients.

    Per “The American Society of Hematology” those with a diagnosis of Cold Agglutinin Disease, should not be treated with corticosteroids. Does hydrocortisone fall into the same category? I find that knowledge of AIHA & CAD is limited among the medical community. I do realize the rarity of the DX. and that research is limited.

      Yeah that was one of the early interventions, it wasn't necessarily hydrocortisone but a very similar medication called dexamethasone there's some doubts and confusions about it because it's an immunosuppressant. I believe it's still contraindicated in the viral phase where the viruses is actively proliferating, but once it turns into an inflammatory pneumonia or ards they definitely use massive doses of corticosteroids.

    I can't help but be reminded how trials are manipulated to get the result they want. Here, they want it to be effective so the intervention was started within 24 hours (as it should be). When Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin were trialed, they wanted the intervention to fail so instead of starting the intervention right away it was delayed for a week. Very sneaky and unethical imo.
