Background. The low serum level of testosterone in the elderly subjects may contribute to coronary artery disease (CAD). Our aim is to study serum levels of free testosterone in elderly men with CAD.Subjects and Methods. This study was conducted on 100 elderly males with CAD, one half of them was presented with ACS (with mean age year), and the other half was presented with stable CAD (with mean age year), in addition to 50 apparently healthy elderly males (with mean age year) as a control group.

Purpose. To investigate how pretreatment testosterone levels correlate with progression-free survival, metastasis-free survival, and overall survival in a propensity-adjusted localized prostate cancer population. Methods. Men diagnosed with clinical NCCN-risk stratified very-low, low, intermediate, high, and/or very-high risk prostate cancer who had a baseline total serum testosterone level≥100 ng/dl measured within the 100 days preceding the first definitive therapy were identified from our prospectively gathered institutional database.

Abstract:
AbstractTestosterone is a male sex hormone and low circulating testosterone levels are associated with various health disorders in men. Obesity results in reduced circulating testosterone levels in men. Previously, we demonstrated that lifestyle modifications (combination of aerobic exercise and dietary modification) increase circulating testosterone levels in overweight/obese men. However, the effect of regular aerobic exercise on serum testosterone levels remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a 12-week aerobic exercise intervention on circulating testost

Abstract:
Obesity causes many health problems as well as having negative effects on fertility. There is a multifaceted relationship between obesity and male infertility. Male fertility is associated with sperm concentration, motility and morphology. Testosterone (total and free) and gonadotropin levels were low and estrogen levels were found to be high in obese men. The decrease in androgen levels varies based on the degree of obesity. High body mass index is inversely related to total sperm count, sperm concentration, sperm morphology and number of motile sperm. Leptin and ghrelin are hormones that inf

Suspected hypogonadism is confirmed if serum testosterone (T) is consistently and unequivocally low, ascertained in fasting morning blood samples on at least two separate occasions. In situations with altered sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) concentrations, serum-free T is more representative of gonadal status than total T. Serum gonadotropin concentrations differentiate primary hypogonadism of testicular origin with elevated gonadotropins from secondary hypogonadism due to hypothalamic-pituitary malfunction with low or inappropriately normal levels.

Abstract:
Abstract An accurate term to describe the hormonal changes of older men is “partial androgen deficiency.” Androgens stimulate male anatomical structures such as the prostate gland and also effect other masculine characteristics. These hormones also influence many general metabolic functions, including bone mineral density, maintenance of muscle cells, and the hemoglobin content of blood. Strictly speaking, androgens cannot be called “male hormones” because the ovaries and adrenal glands of women also produce them. There are several androgenic hormones produced by the body or that chemists can

Both of these are the major factors responsible for CVDs. Hyperlipidemia is characterized by elevated level of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), and reduced level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in serum.
