Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Are statins a risk factor for liver damage associated with intravenous glucocorticoid pulse therapy for Graves ' orbitopathy?
Answer: The lack of observation of cases of ALD in patients given ivGC and statins is quite reassuring. Although caution should be applied to any patient candidate to ivGC treatment and this should be particularly accurate in patients given statins, our findings somehow justify the use of ivGC in patients under statins, although further studies in larger cohorts are needed to confirm our conclusions.
Output (English): no
