Detection of Testosterone Esters in Urine: Evidence of Trace‐Level Detectability in Doping Control Samples

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
An ultrasensitive LC‐MS/MS method for detecting testosterone esters (T‐esters) in urine at sub–pg/mL levels is presented. This approach, employing Girard P derivatization, provides the first evidence of T‐esters' trace‐level detectability in human urine.

Quantification of the Carboxylated LGD‐4033 Long‐Term Metabolite in Human Micro‐Dose Excretion Study Urine Samples

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A validated LC‐HRMS/MS method enabled the first quantitative determination of the LGD‐4033 long‐term metabolite (M5‐b) in urine following controlled micro‐dose administration. The generated urinary reference data support the interpretation of adverse analytical findings and anti‐doping result management. ABSTRACT Selective androgen receptor modulators (

Feeling Better Before, Not After: An Ecological Momentary Assessment of Affect Around Exercise in Women With Eating Disorders

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Maladaptive exercise includes excessive, compulsive, or compensatory exercise and is a common eating‐disorder (ED) symptom associated with increased severity, slower rates‐of‐recovery, and faster rates‐of‐relapse. Affect‐regulation theories posit that maladaptive exercise functions to reduce high negative affect (NA), although ...
