The Effect on Memory of Chronic Prednisone Treatment in Patients with Systemic Disease
Neurol 47:1396-1402, Keenan,P.A.,et al, 1996
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Results reported here,combined with previous clinical and experimental reports,indicate that the risk of memory impairments should be carefully considered in the differential diagnosis of memory loss.Finally,the potential benefit of anti-inflammatory treatment of Alzheimer's disease might be counterbalances by possible iatrogenic memory impairment,at least when synthetic glucocorticoids are considered.
