Clinical trials: Steroid-induced Diabetes
Pre-diabetes, Impaired Fasting Glucose
Effect of Sitagliptin on Short-Term Metabolic Dysregulation of Oral Glucocorticoid Therapy
The investigators hypothesize that sitagliptin will significantly reduce impairments in insulin secretion and insulin resistance resulting from short-term oral glucocorticoid therapy.
