HFRS-related oliguria brings about hyperactivity of the system hypothalamus-hypophysis-adrenals and hyperfunction of the pancreas; glucose, urea and creatinine plasma levels are elevated. Prednisolone treatment leads to diminution of ACTH and cortisol levels, elevation of glucose, insulin and C-peptide concentrations in plasma compared to prednisolone-untreated patients, producing insignificant effect on plasma levels of STH, vasopressin, aldosterone, area and creatinine. Therefore, a course administration of glucocorticoids to HFRS patients is justified only in severe collapses and hypopituitary coma confirmed by the laboratory methods.
