UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010532	Peritoneal Diseases	Pathological processes involving the PERITONEUM.	Peritoneal Disease
D011239	Prednisolone	A glucocorticoid with the general properties of the corticosteroids. It is the drug of choice for all conditions in which routine systemic corticosteroid therapy is indicated, except adrenal deficiency states.	Di-Adreson-F,Predate,Predonine,Di Adreson F,DiAdresonF
D011241	Prednisone	A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.	Dehydrocortisone,delta-Cortisone,Apo-Prednisone,Cortan,Cortancyl,Cutason,Dacortin,Decortin,Decortisyl,Deltasone,Encorton,Encortone,Enkortolon,Kortancyl,Liquid Pred,Meticorten,Orasone,Panafcort,Panasol,Predni Tablinen,Prednidib,Predniment,Prednison Acsis,Prednison Galen,Prednison Hexal,Pronisone,Rectodelt,Sone,Sterapred,Ultracorten,Winpred,Acsis, Prednison
D003240	Connective Tissue Diseases	A heterogeneous group of disorders, some hereditary, others acquired, characterized by abnormal structure or function of one or more of the elements of connective tissue, i.e., collagen, elastin, or the mucopolysaccharides.	Connective Tissue Disease,Disease, Connective Tissue,Diseases, Connective Tissue
D003348	Cortisone	A naturally occurring glucocorticoid that has been used in replacement therapy for ADRENAL INSUFFICIENCY and as an anti-inflammatory agent. Cortisone itself is inactive; it is converted in the liver to the active metabolite HYDROCORTISONE. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p726)	17-Hydroxy-3,11,20-trioxopregn-4-en-21-yl acetate,Adreson,Cortisone Acetate,Cortone Acetate
D005438	Fludrocortisone	A synthetic mineralocorticoid with anti-inflammatory activity.	9-Fluorocortisol,9 alpha Fludrohydrocortisone,9 alpha-Fluoro-17-Hydroxycorticosterone,9 alpha-Fluorohydrocortisone,9-Fluoro-17-Hydroxycortisone,9-Fluorohydrocortisone,Astonin,Astonin Merck,Astonin-H,FCOL,9 Fluoro 17 Hydroxycortisone,9 Fluorocortisol,9 Fluorohydrocortisone,9 alpha Fluoro 17 Hydroxycorticosterone,9 alpha Fluorohydrocortisone,Astonin H,Merck, Astonin
D000267	Tissue Adhesions	Pathological processes consisting of the union of the opposing surfaces of a wound.	Adhesions, Tissue,Surgery-Induced Tissue Adhesions,Surgical Adhesions,Adhesion, Surgery-Induced Tissue,Adhesion, Surgical,Adhesion, Tissue,Adhesions, Surgery-Induced Tissue,Adhesions, Surgical,Surgery Induced Tissue Adhesions,Surgery-Induced Tissue Adhesion,Surgical Adhesion,Tissue Adhesion,Tissue Adhesion, Surgery-Induced,Tissue Adhesions, Surgery-Induced
D013256	Steroids	A group of polycyclic compounds closely related biochemically to TERPENES. They include cholesterol, numerous hormones, precursors of certain vitamins, bile acids, alcohols (STEROLS), and certain natural drugs and poisons. Steroids have a common nucleus, a fused, reduced 17-carbon atom ring system, cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene. Most steroids also have two methyl groups and an aliphatic side-chain attached to the nucleus. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed)	Steroid,Catatoxic Steroids,Steroids, Catatoxic
D014221	Triamcinolone	A glucocorticoid given, as the free alcohol or in esterified form, orally, intramuscularly, by local injection, by inhalation, or applied topically in the management of various disorders in which corticosteroids are indicated. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p739)	Aristocort,Volon
