Dried blood spot (DBS) analysis enables minimally invasive blood collection with strong analyte stability and simplified logistics, supporting anti‐doping applications beyond traditional matrices. Recent advances address hematocrit, volume variability, and matrix effects while expanding coverage to steroid esters, World Anti‐Doping Agency‐listed ...

Metabolism of anabolic androgenic steroids [PDF]
Abstract Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are misused to a high extent in sports by athletes to improve their physical performance. Sports federations consider the use of these drugs in sports as doping. The misuse of AAS is controlled by detection of the parent AAS (when excreted into urine) and (or) their metabolites in urine of ...

Anabolic androgenic steroid induced necrotising myopathy [PDF]
We describe the case of a 23-year-old gentleman who developed a severe generalised necrotising myopathy. Initially presenting with features of a virus-induced polymyositis, both symptomatic and biochemical improvements were initially achieved with glucocorticoid-based immunosuppression.

Abstract Background This study investigates the impact of disruptions in testosterone levels on bone remodeling, root resorption, and periodontal ligament (PDL) during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in a pubertal male rat model. Methods Testosterone deficiency was induced through orchiectomy, and the anabolic‐androgenic steroid (AAS, testosterone ...

What anabolic–androgenic steroids reveal about the limits of current harm reduction models
Abstract Background Harm reduction has largely been shaped by responses to psychoactive drug use where the most urgent harms are acute. These models focus on overdose, blood‐borne viruses, and rapid‐onset toxicity related harms. When applied wholesale to anabolic–androgenic steroids (AAS), they obscure the distinctive pharmacology, consumer typologies,
