Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Hypogonadism, ADAM, and hormone replacement

Therapeutic Advances in Urology, 2010
Male hypogonadism, or testosterone deficiency syndrome (TDS), results from a failure of the testes to produce adequate androgen. Patients have low circulating testosterone in combination with clinical symptoms such as fatigue, erectile dysfunction, and ...

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.

Comparison of Testosterone Replacement Therapy Medications for Treatment of Hypogonadism [PDF]

, 2017
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is one treatment option for men with hypogonadism. When TRT is prescribed, effectiveness, patient compliance, cost, and potential side effects should be considered and utilized to develop an individualized treatment

Association Between FTO rs1558902 Polymorphism, Age‐Related Hypogonadism, and Central Obesity in Japanese Men

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Obesity and low testosterone levels are closely interconnected, with the FTO gene being the most robust genetic determinant of body mass index (BMI). However, whether this primary genetic driver of obesity directly influences the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐testicular (HPT) axis remains unclear.

Effect of thyroid hormone replacement therapy on ovarian volume and androgen hormones in patients with untreated primary hypothyroidism

Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2011
Background and Objectives: Primary hypothyroidism may be associated with ovarian enlargement and/ or cyst formation. We evaluated the effect of thyroid hormone replacement therapy on hormonal changes, ovarian volume and sonographic appearance.

Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) : an emerging pathophysiological entity requiring the physician's attention [PDF]

, 2006
Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) is an emerging pathophysiological entity. Not everybody is familiar with LOH or even recognizes its existence. Since the 19th century women's life expectancy has become progressively greater than that of men and therefore ...

Impact of FSHB and FSHR Genes Polymorphisms on Hormonal Profile and Sperm Retrieval Outcome in Men With Klinefelter Syndrome: A Clinical–Genetic Predictive Study

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Genetic variability within the follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH)‐related genes might contribute to phenotypic heterogeneity in patients with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), yet its clinical impact on sperm retrieval remains unclear. Objectives To investigate the association between FSHB c.211 G > T and FSHR polymorphisms (c.2039 A > G ...

Sleep Disorders in Klinefelter Syndrome and Other Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies: A Narrative Review

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs) are among the most frequent types of chromosomal aneuploidies and include Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY and higher‐grade variants), 47,XYY syndrome, Turner syndrome (45,X), and trisomy X (47,XXX).
