In this study, we aimed to assess the effectiveness of early steroid pulse therapy on patient outcomes among children with all subtypes of IAE using a nationwide database in Japan. We observed no significant difference in patient outcomes between the propensity score-matched patients with and without early steroid pulse therapy in our study population, including all clinical subtypes of IAE. In our study population including all clinical subtypes of IAE, after adjusting for the factors in Table 1 , we did not observe a significant difference in the proportions of unfavorable outcomes or in-hospital mortality between the patients with and without early steroid pulse therapy within 2 days.	./cache/cord-030502-mvlib8ol.txt	./txt/cord-030502-mvlib8ol.txt
