At a prednisone (mg)/dexamethasone (mg) dose ratio less than 7, dexamethasone treatment (6–18 mg/m 2 /day) yielded event-free survival superior to that of prednisone (40–120 mg/m 2 /day), and high-dose dexamethasone (10–18 mg/m 2 /day) overcame drug resistance in T-ALL and high-risk ALL

For example, drugs such as Dexamethasone have The overnight test is a simple outpatient test
Diagnosing Cushing’s syndrome (CS) and autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) in patients with adrenal incidentaloma remains a challenge, partly due to a lack of biochemical tests with high diagnostic accuracy (1, 2)
[4, 5] Serum cortisol, serum dexamethasone, and salivary cortisol and cortisone after a 1-mg DST were measured using LC-MS in electrospray-positive mode
For minor surgical stress, the supplementation of hydrocortisone 25 mg IV (or equivalent) has been advised
