Abstract

Our Cochrane systematic review on glucocorticosteroids versus placebo or no intervention for people with alcoholic hepatitis found no evidence of a difference on clinically important outcomes at either of the three timepoints of follow-up.(4) Our review (last search 18.01.2019) was based on a pre-published, peer-reviewed protocol. In a subgroup meta-analysis of 14 trials with 1679 participants with severe alcoholic hepatitis, we found no evidence of effect of glucocorticosteroids on mortality.(4).
