Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals
This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

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,

Testosterone Versus Clomiphene Treatment of Hypogonadism: A Retrospective Analysis in US Veterans
ABSTRACT Background Male hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is a complex condition with a multifactorial etiology. Although testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is the only approved treatment for male hypogonadism, clomiphene citrate (CC) is often used as an off‐label treatment.

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.

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.
