Manifestation is centripetal obesity, causing calcium absorption disorders, causing osteoporosis, and in severe cases, spontaneous fractures can occur.
2. Glucocorticoids can weaken the body's ability to defend against diseases, facilitate bacterial growth, reproduction, and diffusion, and induce or exacerbate infection.
3. Glucocorticoids promote protein decomposition, can delay granulation tissue formation, and prevent the healing of trauma or surgical wounds and other ulcers.
