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.

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.

Prospective Short‐ and Long‐Term Changes in Cardiometabolic Risk Markers Following Gender‐Affirming Hormone Therapy

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) may be associated with increased cardiometabolic disease (CMD) risk. Prospective CMD risk screening is recommended, but long‐term data are needed regarding changes in CMD markers. Objectives To evaluate prospective changes in CMD risk markers during GAHT.

Effect of Testosterone Treatment on Leucocyte Telomere Length in Men: Results From a Randomised Placebo‐Controlled Trial

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lower testosterone concentrations in older men are associated with poorer health outcomes. Objective We examined whether, on a background of lifestyle intervention, testosterone treatment modulates leucocyte telomere length, a postulated marker of biological ageing, in overweight men with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or newly ...
