Book Synopsis Testosterone and Aging by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Testosterone and Aging written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-03-12 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular culture often equates testosterone with virility, strength, and the macho male physique. Viewed by some as an "antiaging tonic," testosterone's reputation and increased use by men of all ages in the United States have outpaced the scientific evidence about its potential benefits and risks. In particular there has been growing concern about an increase in the number of middle-aged and older men using testosterone and the lack of scientific data on the effect it may have on aging males. Studies of testosterone replacement therapy in older men have generally been of short duration, involving small numbers of participants and often lacking adequate controls. Testosterone and Aging weighs the options of future research directions, examines the risks and benefits of testosterone replacement therapy, assesses the potential public health impact of such therapy in the United States, and considers ethical issues related to the conduct of clinical trials. Testosterone therapy remains an attractive option to many men even as speculation abounds regarding its potential.
Download or read book Testosterone written by Susan Nieschlag and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New developments in testosterone therapy are summarized here by internationally renowned experts. They review both basic and clinical knowledge in fourteen chapters. The book begins with the biochemistry of testosterone, its biosynthesis, metabolism and mechanisms of action in target organs. Three chapters deal with specific aspects of testosterone action, namely its role in spermatogenesis, its psychotropic effects and its effects on bones. Syndromes caused by androgen resistance are described in order to highlight the importance of properly functioning enzymes and receptors in the target organs. Causes and symptoms of male hypogonadism, the major indication for testosterone treatment, are described. Five chapters are devoted to the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and clinical uses and abuses of testosterone preparations. The new transdermal testosterone application is described in detail. Side effects of testosterone treatment are reviewed. The possible role of androgens in the development of prostatic hypertrophy and carcinoma is discussed extensively since this question is of major concern to the clinician.
Book Synopsis Testosterone Resistance by : Malcolm Carruthers, MD
Download or read book Testosterone Resistance written by Malcolm Carruthers, MD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a controversial account of why, because of the barriers to testosterone action in the body, men can have normal levels of testosterone but still have life-, love-, and health-wrecking symptoms of testosterone deficiency which need treatment. The deficiency is increasingly being linked to common and serious medical conditions such as obesity, diabetes, heart and circulatory disorders, and even Alzheimers disease. This has clearly been shown by the authors pioneering research publications as well as those of other colleagues and researchers worldwide. However, in the majority of cases, they are often denied this because of the lack of understanding of the medical profession and other authorities regulating the treatment. This is a wake-up call to both doctors and patients alike to treat the symptoms of testosterone deficiency and related conditions with what the author argues is the most effective, safest, and economic form of preventive medicine of the twenty-first century.

This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines the approach to comprehensive men’s health deployed at three of the most successful American men’s health centers. It demonstrates the ways in which multidisciplinary care allows patients to easily access their doctors via coordination of care, same day add-on visits, and streamlining of office logistics such as sharing of charts, reports, and results. Guiding readers in establishing an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to the management of male patients of all ages, this volume shows how prevention, rapid intervention, cost efficiency, and coordinated care are at the forefront of a health center’s care strategy. The authors of this volume are thought leaders in the disciplines of cardiology, gastroenterology, dermatology, psychiatry, and preventative medicine. Design and Implementation of the Modern Men’s Health Center: A Multidisciplinary Approach enables urologists, medical subspecialists, and surgical subspecialists to both manage basic patient issues and also to understand how multidisciplinary care enables the success of a men’s health center.

Book Synopsis Sex and Gender Factors Affecting Metabolic Homeostasis, Diabetes and Obesity by : Franck Mauvais-Jarvis
Download or read book Sex and Gender Factors Affecting Metabolic Homeostasis, Diabetes and Obesity written by Franck Mauvais-Jarvis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a reference for years to come, written by world-renowned expert investigators studying sex differences, the role of sex hormones, the systems biology of sex, and the genetic contribution of sex chromosomes to metabolic homeostasis and diseases. In this volume, leaders of the pharmaceutical industry present their views on sex-specific drug discovery. Many of the authors presented at the Keystone Symposium on “Sex and gender factors affecting metabolic homeostasis, diabetes and obesity” to be held in March 2017 in Lake Tahoe, CA. This book will generate new knowledge and ideas on the importance of gender biology and medicine from a molecular standpoint to the population level and to provide the methods to study them. It is intended to be a catalyst leading to gender-specific treatments of metabolic diseases. There are fundamental aspects of metabolic homeostasis that are regulated differently in males and females, and influence both the development of diabetes and obesity and the response to pharmacological intervention. Still, most preclinical researchers avoid studying female rodents due to the added complexity of research plans. The consequence is a generation of data that risks being relevant to only half of the population. This is a timely moment to publish a book on sex differences in diseases as NIH leadership has asked scientists to consider sex as a biological variable in preclinical research, to ensure that women get the same benefit of medical research as men.
Book Synopsis Cardiovascular risk factors in elderly by : Karin Rådholm
Download or read book Cardiovascular risk factors in elderly written by Karin Rådholm and published by Linköping University Electronic Press. This book was released on 2015-09-11 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background The part of the population that belongs to the oldest-old (ages 80 years or older) increases rapidly, worldwide. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and disease burden globally. Multimorbidity is common in old age and stroke, diabetes mellitus (DM) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are strongly associated with age. Cardiovascular risk factors are well studied and documented in younger and middle ages, but not as well in old and frail individuals. Therefore, preventive treatment choices are mostly based on evidence for younger patients. The aim of this thesis was to explore age and other aspects of cardiovascular risk factors; AF, hypertension and DM, in relation to comorbidity, cardiovascular outcome and mortality. Methods This thesis was based on four different studies: The ELSA85 study of 85 years old in Linköping, SwedenThe international, multicentre, randomised controlled INTERACT2 trial of spontaneous intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), mean age 64 years.The prospective SHADES study of nursing home residents, mean age 85 years.The prospective, national SWE-diadep study of dispensed antidiabetics, antidepressantsand prevalent myocardial infarction (MI) in 45-84 years old. Data was obtained from questionnaires (ELSA85, INTERACT2), medical records and medical examination (ELSA85, INTERACT2, SHADES), and national registers (SWE-Diadep). Results The ELSA85 study showed that 16% (n=53) had an ECG showing AF. There was an increased hazard ratio (HR) for all-cause mortality in participants with AF at baseline, at 90 years of age (HR 1.59, 95% [Confidence Interval] CI 1.04-2.44) adjusted for sex. This increase in HR did not persist when adjusted for congestive heart failure (CHF). In the INTERACT2 study, increasing age was associated with increasing frequency of death or dependency (odds ratio [OR] 4.36, 95% [CI] 3.12-6.08 for >75 years vs <52 years, p value for trend <0.001). The SHADES study showed that participants with Systolic blood pressure (SBP) <120 mmHg had an increased HR for mortality (1.56, 95% CI, 1.08–2.27; p=0.019) but there were no differences between SBP groups 140–159 mmHg and ?160 mmHg compared with the reference group SBP 120–139 mmHg. SBP decreased during the prospective study period. In the SWE-diadep study, individuals with antidiabetics and antidepressants combined had a greater HR for MI compared to the reference of no antidiabetics or antidepressants, mostly so in women aged 45-64 years (HR 7.4, 95% CI: 6.3-8.6). Conclusion Risk factors for CVDs in elderly differ from cardiovascular risk factors in middle aged individuals an
