Abstract:
Glucocorticoids have remained important anti-inflammatory agents in the treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD).However,the use of glucocorticoids can invoke or enhance insulin resistance,which is closely associated with renal injury and serves as an independent risk of the occurrence and progression of CKD.On the other hand,CKD patients may have insulin resistance,which hampers the use of glucocorticoids in these patients.
