Fig. 3 ACTH-stimulated cortisol secretion before the end of study in (A) patients treated with UDCA/placebo and (B) patients treated with UDCA/budesonide for 2 years. ACTH is able to stimulate the adrenal gland in both groups, showing that budesonide does not completely suppress adrenal function.

Fig. 4 Total score of liver histology improved significantly by 30.3% in group A and slightly deteriorated by 3.5% in group B (P < 0.001). Inflammation: periportal and lobular inflammation, piecemeal, and bridging necroses (A vs. B, P < 0.01). Bile ducts: proliferation and destruction of bile ducts and granulomas (NS). Connective tissue: portal and interlobular fibers and liver cirrhosis (A vs. B, P < 0.001).
