LC–MS/MS based measurement of basal plasma steroids. Cortisol (a), 11-deoxycortisol (b), 11-deoxycorticosterone (c) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) (d) concentrations in patients with multiple sclerosis receiving fingolimod treatment and healthy controls are compared (p = 0.11, 0.058, 0.74, 0.15; respectively). Scatter plots represent the mean and standard errors of mean (S.E.M) of the measurements. Each symbol represents an individual case-specific measurement. Conversion to SI units: to convert nanograms per milliliter to nanomoles per liter, multiply by 2.76 for cortisol, by 2.89 for 11-deoxycortisol, by 3.03 for 11-deoxycorticosterone and by 3.467 for DHEA
