More evidence is needed to establish the utility of mSCL in patients undergoing repeat injections with increasing cumulative glucocorticoid equivalent dose (CGED) that could place them at higher risk of HPA axis suppression.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>To estimate the prevalence of spine injection candidates with significant HPA axis suppression (sigAS), to understand the correlation between 12\u00a0months of CGED and the presence of sigAS based on the timing of mSCL collection after the most recent glucocorticoid injection (within 6\u00a0weeks or between 6\u00a0weeks and 12\u00a0months), and to investigate demographic and clinical factors relating to sigAS.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Retrospective chart review of patients scheduled for spine injection who had an associated mSCL and documented histories of prior glucocorticoid injections.
