Abstract:
IntroductionCurrent evidence indicates an alarming increase in topical steroid (TS) misuse in India. Data regarding the magnitude and characteristics of this problem in rural India, where 68% of the population resides, are insufficient. This study analyses the magnitude, causes, characteristics and consequences of TS misuse in rural India. It also examines the association between TS misuse and patients’ perception of skin disease.MethodsA mixed-method observational study was conducted among the attendees of the dermatology outpatient department in a rural North Indian hospital.

Abstract:
The prescription and use of steroids, both corticosteroids and anabolic steroids, present significant ethical challenges in medical practice. While corticosteroids are integral in managing inflammatory conditions, their long-term use is associated with considerable side effects, necessitating careful medical supervision. Anabolic steroids, originally developed for medical purposes, are often misused for performance enhancement, raising concerns about health risks, fairness in sports, and informed consent. This review explores the ethical implications of steroid prescriptions, focusing on the b

<em>The term steroid means molecule having varying physiological properties. Initially steroids were isolated from adrenal gland and were thought to use in Addison disease. Now due to its potent anti-inflammatory and immune modulating properties steroids are used in many clinical problems. Testosterone exerts its effect on both reproductive and non-reproductive tissues. It is mostly used to increase muscle strength, increase muscle mass, decreased recovery time and promote healing.

Abstract Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are prohibited as performance-enhancing drugs in sports. Among them, testosterone and its precursors are often referred to as “pseudoendogenous” AAS, that is, endogenous steroids that are prohibited when administered exogenously. To detect their misuse, among other methods, the World Anti-Doping Agency-accredited laboratories monitor the steroid profile (concentrations and concentration ratios of endogenous steroids, precursors and metabolites) in urine samples collected from athletes in and out of competition.

Abstract Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are misused to a high extent in sports by athletes to improve their physical performance. Sports federations consider the use of these drugs in sports as doping. The misuse of AAS is controlled by detection of the parent AAS (when excreted into urine) and (or) their metabolites in urine of athletes. I present a review of the metabolism of AAS. Testosterone is the principal androgenic steroid and its metabolism is compared with that of AAS.

Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are widely used by athletes to enhance sports performance. In this thesis, different studies were performed to evaluate the potential of the direct detection of phase II metabolites by LC-MS/MS to improve the detection of AAS misuse in sport. First, the direct detection of glucuronide metabolites was investigated using metandienone, allowing the detection of thirteen glucuronides, one of them resistant to enzymatic hydrolysis. The proposed analytical strategy provides a comprehensive approach and it is recommended to be used for metabolic studies of other
