Description
Long-term use of glucocorticoids for polymyalgia rheumatica: follow-up of the PMR Cohort study Dr Sara Muller (Keele University, UK) and Prof Samantha Hider (Keele University, UK) join Dr Sheilla Achieng to discuss a follow-up to the PMR cohort study, an inception cohort of 652 patients from English general practices who were diagnosed with PMR between 2012 and 2014. They identify the main findings from the follow-up, including that many people were still taking glucocorticoids after a median of 5.16 years, and highlight that PMR is not always a time-limited condition.
