PCONet: A Convolutional Neural Network Architecture to Detect Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) from Ovarian Ultrasound Images [PDF]
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is an endrocrinological dysfunction prevalent among women of reproductive age. PCOS is a combination of syndromes caused by an excess of androgens - a group of sex hormones - in women. Syndromes including acne, alopecia, hirsutism, hyperandrogenaemia, oligo-ovulation, etc. are caused by PCOS. It is also a major cause of

Androgen Receptor Signaling in the Development of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
Most prostate cancers are androgen-sensitive malignancies whose growths depend on the transcriptional activity of the androgen receptor (AR). In the 1940s, Charles Huggins demonstrated that the surgical removal of testes in men can result in a dramatic ...

Risk of osteoporosis in testicular germ cell tumour survivors: A systematic review of the literature
Abstract Context Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) survivors are potentially at risk of developing osteoporosis, because of increased risk for disturbed bone remodelling associated with hypogonadism and anti‐cancer treatment. A number of studies show bone loss and increased fracture risk in TGCT survivors, but data are scarce.

Nonsyndromic cryptorchidism is a common multifactorial, condition with long-term risks of subfertility and testicular cancer. Revealing the causes of cryptorchidism will likely improve prediction and prevention of adverse outcomes.

Towards Personalized Prostate Cancer Therapy Using Delta-Reachability Analysis [PDF]
Recent clinical studies suggest that the efficacy of hormone therapy for prostate cancer depends on the characteristics of individual patients. In this paper, we develop a computational framework for identifying patient-specific androgen ablation therapy schedules for postponing the potential cancer relapse.

Androgen Signaling in Prostate Cancer.
The androgen-signaling axis plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer. Since the landmark discovery by Huggins and Hodges, gonadal depletion of androgens has remained a mainstay of therapy for advanced disease.

Abstract Metformin, the first line pharmacotherapy for type 2 diabetes has demonstrated favourable effects in prostate cancer (PCa) across a range of studies evaluating PCa patient outcomes amongst metformin users. However, a lack of rigorously conducted prospective studies has stalled clinical use in this setting.
