Sex Steroids Measurement by Mass Spectrometry in Hypogonadal Men in a Real‐World Setting: Serum Estradiol (E2) and E2 to Total Testosterone Ratio Do Not Differ Between Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome and Non‐Klinefelter Syndrome Hypogonadism

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Traditionally, Klinefelter syndrome (KS) was considered a clinical condition associated with hyperestrogenism. Aim To compare circulating sex steroids, particularly estrogens, in a cohort of KS and non‐KS hypogonadal men. Materials and Methods A cohort of hypogonadal men, treated and untreated, was prospectively enrolled in a real ...

A comparative study to estimate three commercial products of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) on blood biochemistry, sexual hormones concentrations, reproductive indices, and larvae production of African catfish Clarias gariepinus brood-stock

Italian Journal of Animal Science
Currently, almost all hatcheries that produce catfish seeds depend on hormone stimulations, application of human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG) is considered the common method for commercial spawning of African catfish Clarias gariepinus ...

Effects of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) on In Vitro Cultured Equine Chorionic Girdle Cells

Animals
Introduction: Equine chorionic girdle cells can give rise to the endometrial cup, a structure that secretes equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG). To date, the mechanisms underlying the proliferation, differentiation, invasion, and hormone secretion of ...

Chemotherapy resistance and risk stratification in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Higher pretreatment β‐hCG, greater tumor burden, higher FIGO stage/score, and choriocarcinoma were associated with higher chemoresistance risk in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. In exploratory network analyses, etoposide‐containing regimens showed lower predicted chemoresistance.

A pro‐inflammatory cytokine signature characterises thrombotic antiphospholipid syndrome despite stable anticoagulation

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Primary antiphospholipid syndrome comprises distinct inflammatory subgroups defined by cytokine profiling. A shared pro‐inflammatory signature is present across all patients, whereas arterial thrombosis demonstrates enhanced inflammatory activation compared with venous thrombosis, suggesting divergent pathogenic mechanisms and opportunities for ...
