For the primary endpoint in patients with hyperglycemia, detailed results for the cofactors are shown. GC: Glucocorticoids. 1 of which 92 (79%) had adrenal insufficiency or stress prophylaxis in chronic GC use. 2 mean GC dose is given as normalized GC dose in mg per prednisolone equivalent per kg per day.
