The patients iiy’r(’ compared to uge und sex-matched sedentuy control subjects. Forty-eight percent of the putients (1 212.5) tuking 340 mg per day of prednisone had hip ,flexor strength 22 SD below the mean of. ugc tmd sex-mutched control subject.> by Cybex testing (CT). Sixb;four percent of the putienis ( 16125) taking 240 mg per day qf prednisone were found on munuul muscle testing :o have hip ,flexor weakness. OnI! one patient taking <30 mg per duy of prednisone was found to huvr~ muscle uwukrless. Biochemical parameters, including CPK, aldolase, SCOT. I.DH, and L.DH isoen~mes were measured to assess the degree of’ steroid-induced muscle damuge. They neither correlated with the degree of hip jlexor weakness us measured by CT, nor did they discriminate between patients receiving smull doses and large doses of steroids. !.‘hunge.c in tcrinury escretion of creutine did not help to co$rm the diagnosis qf steroid myopathy.
