Volumetric Absorptive Microsampling (VAMS) is emerging as a valuable technique in the collection of dried biological specimens, offering potential alternative to traditional sampling methods. The objective this study was assess suitability 30 μL VAMS for measurement endogenous steroid hormones.
Testosterone therapy represents the cornerstone of gender affirming hormone (GAHT) among t-AFAB (transgender Assigned Female At Birth) people. Minoxidil is a vasodilator drug approved for topical use treatment androgenetic alopecia. The aim present study was to evaluate efficacy minoxidil in enhancing beard growth group people on GAHT.
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> According to guidelines, a morning serum cortisol level &#x3c;83 nmol/L is diagnostic for central adrenal insufficiency (CAI), value &#x3e;414 excludes CAI, while values between 83 and 414 require stimulation tests. However, there are no currently reliable data on prediction of response insulin tolerance test (ITT). <b><i>Objective:</i></b> Using the receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis, purpose...
Background: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may affect testicles. Lower testosterone levels have been associated with worse clinical outcomes and higher mortality. Our objective was to evaluate the hypothalamic−pituitary−gonadal axis of men admitted SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia its link pneumonia-treatment intensification. Short-term changes in hormonal parameters were also assessed. Methods: Men recruited two different hospitals Piedmont, Italy. In all patients,...

Sommario Le onde d’urto a bassa intensità (LI-ESWT) emergono come un trattamento promettente per la disfunzione erettile (DE). Questa terapia non invasiva, che sfrutta l’utilizzo di acustiche, migliora il flusso sanguigno penieno con effetti positivi sulla funzionalità erettile. In letteratura sono emerse sempre maggiori evidenze rispetto all’efficacia delle LI-ESWT. I principali vantaggi tale metodica includono invasività, i minimi collaterali e procedura eseguibile in setting...
Venous malformations are rare but possible findings too, constituting a further risk factor for central venous catheter procedures. Herein we describe case of death because an innominate vein perforation by that incidentally was tucked into sacciform malformation. Even if the technology advancement is constantly offering us new investigation tools, up to now diagnostic options limited in detection those could potentially lead dramatic complications as described one. The present work raises...
