Description
BackgroundA recent database study and meta-analysis reported that adjunctive glucocorticoid therapy reduces mortality in patients with non-human immunodeficiency virus-associated (non-HIV) Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP), having hypoxemia. However, the optimal glucocorticoid dose remains unclear. Our study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of pulse methylprednisolone compared with mild-to-moderate steroid doses in patients with non-HIV PCP.
