Objective To investigate effect of serum total testosterone and its relationship with other laboratory parameters on the prognosis coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infected male patients.
The SARS-CoV-2 set off a pandemic involving millions of people around the world. topic discussion is possible viral detection in different body fluids than respiratory droplets. Therefore, we evaluated presence semen and urine samples. Thirty patients were included study aged 35.67 ± 6.84 years. day after pharyngeal and/or nose swab was positive, samples taken from patients, investigated. Laboratory tests chest CT findings simultaneously. detected four (13.3%) patients' seven (23.3%) White...
Insulin resistance resulting in endothelial dysfunction is related to erectile dysfunction. The triglyceride and glucose index a low-cost, practical, easily accessible parameter for determining insulin resistance. We aimed reveal the relationship between severity of Medical records 974 patients admitted our clinic complaining January 2021 June 2023 were scanned retrospectively from database programme. According scores obtained simplified 5-item International Index Erectile Function...

The aim of this study was to determine the results ultrasound-guided percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement performed solely by urologists. We present our relevant one decade experience in a tertiary care hospital.We evaluated technical success and complication rates for obstructive uropathy clinic, between December 2004 January 2015. Data were retrieved retrospectively from patients' files. This procedure urologists two different methods renal access employed: Seldinger technique direct...
Reactive oxygen species reduce the male sex hormone levels and disrupt hormonal balance that regulates reproductive functions. They spermatozoa other testicular cells. This study aimed at evaluating effect of antioxidant treatment on serum gonadal hormones sperm parameters in men with idiopathic infertility.A total 100 infertile aged 23-46 years were included study. Control group consisted 50 each. Patients received oral supplement once a day. The content L-carnitine, L-arginine, vitamin E,...
To investigate effect of microsurgical varicocele repair on sexual functions and serum total testosterone level in infertile hypogonadal men with varicocele, also to determine factors that might predict improvement after surgery.The study included 202 (total <3.5 ng/mL) who underwent sub-inguinal repair.Mean significantly increased from 2.55 ± 0.66 ng/mL 3.72 1.34 varicocelectomy (p = .000), 105 patients (52%) had ≥3.5 the surgery. Mean international index erectile (IIEF-EF) score 27.47 2.96...
Background: Higher mortality rate related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has led clinicians investigate newer parameters that might predict prognosis of disease 2019 (COVID-19). Our hypothesis was whether serum testosterone and other gonadal hormones play an important role on the COVID-19 in male patients. Therefore, this cohort study, we aimed effect its relationship with laboratory SARS-CoV-2 infected Methods: The study included 221 consecutive patients...
