What anabolic–androgenic steroids reveal about the limits of current harm reduction models

Addiction, EarlyView.
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,

Limited Clinical Impact of Androgen Receptor Repeat Length (CAG and GGC) in Klinefelter Syndrome: A Multivariable Analysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is characterized by marked phenotypic heterogeneity that might be influenced by genetic modifiers, including androgen receptor (AR) repeat length (CAGn and GGCn). The clinical relevance of these repeat lengths in patients with KS before testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) remains unclear.

Low Free Testosterone Is Independently Associated With Long‐Term Mortality in Men With Chronic Spinal Cord Injury

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testosterone deficiency is highly prevalent in men with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) and is associated with obesity, sarcopenia, systemic inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction. However, the independent prognostic role of low testosterone in long‐term mortality in this population remains unclear.

A Systematic Scoping Review of Participant Descriptor, Diversity and Inclusivity Data Reported in Randomised Studies of Post‐Operative Ileus

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Poor reporting of baseline descriptor, diversity and inclusion data is a barrier in surgical research for drawing generalisable conclusions across diverse populations. Post‐operative ileus was used as an exemplar surgical condition to quantify the variation in baseline descriptor, inclusivity and diversity data in randomised ...

Risk Factors for Complications Following Paediatric Neuromuscular and Syndromic Scoliosis Correction Surgery: A Systematic Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Paediatric neuromuscular and syndromic scoliosis patients have multiple medical comorbidities that increase the risk of postoperative complications. There is a lack of consistent literature assessing the specific risk factors for complications following scoliosis correction surgery in this high‐risk cohort.

Validation of Aortic Blood Flow Simulations During Extracorporeal Circulation Using Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This is the first study assessing in vivo blood flow profiles during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) scenarios. Magnetic resonance imaging data served for the calibration of computational fluid dynamics algorithms, enabling accurate replication of the hemodynamic conditions.
