Testosterone replacement therapy and the risk of stroke in men: A systematic review.

Only registered users can translate articles

In recent years, questions have been raised regarding the cardiovascular safety of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). The objective of this study was to systematically review the available evidence on TRT safety in men, specifically with respect to the risk of stroke. We identified publications

Age-dependent effects of testosterone in experimental stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Although male sex is a well-recognized risk factor for stroke, the role of androgens in cerebral ischemia remains unclear. Therefore, we evaluated effects of testosterone on infarct size in both young adult and middle-aged rats (Wistar, 3-month versus 14-month old) and mice (C57/BL6, 3-month versus

Circulating testosterone in pure motor stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Serum LH, FSH and testosterone were quantitated in 9 patients with pure motor stroke within 24-48 h of its reported onset. High circulating LH with normal or low testosterone was noted in 8 of them. In response to an intravenous bolus of GnRH, the LH responses were exaggerated in all, but the FSH

The Association of Serum Testosterone Levels With Recurrence and Mortality After Acute Ischemic Stroke in Males.

Only registered users can translate articles

The current study aimed to investigate whether low testosterone predicted the recurrence and clinical outcomes after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in males. From June 2015 through August 2017, the study prospectively enrolled 110 male AIS patients. All received detailed evaluations at admission and

Effects of testosterone levels on functional recovery with rehabilitation in stroke patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effects of testosterone on functional recovery in stroke patients have not previously been studied. The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of pre-rehabilitation serum testosterone levels on functional recovery in male stroke patients. In total, 111 male stroke patients admitted to

The predictive value of serum testosterone level on the functional outcomes after acute ischemic stroke in males.

Only registered users can translate articles

We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of sex hormone levels on 3-month functional outcomes after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in males.A total of 110 male AIS patients were included in this prospective study. Serum levels of testosterone and estradiol

Effect of testosterone on functional recovery in a castrate male rat stroke model.

Only registered users can translate articles

Both increased and decreased testosterone levels have been reported to correlate with poor outcome after acute ischemic stroke. The present study focused on the role of testosterone during recovery from neurological deficits in a rat focal ischemia model. Castrate male rats were subjected to

Myocardial Infarction and Stroke Risk in Young Healthy Men Treated with Injectable Testosterone.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study was conducted to examine the association between testosterone therapy and new myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke events in a series of patients treated at Low T Centers across the United States, consisting of mainly young (mean age = 46), otherwise, healthy men. Electronic medical

Associations of Endogenous Estradiol and Testosterone Levels with Plaque Composition and Risk of Stroke in Subjects with Carotid Atherosclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Sex steroids may play a role in plaque composition and in stroke incidence. OBJECTIVE To study the associations of endogenous estradiol and testosterone with carotid plaque composition in elderly men and postmenopausal women with carotid atherosclerosis, as well as with risk of stroke in

Testosterone May Hold Therapeutic Promise for the Treatment of Ischemic Stroke in Aging: A Closer Look at Laboratory Findings.

Only registered users can translate articles

Male sex is more prone to cerebrovascular disorders, yet the exact role of androgens in cerebral ischemia remains unclear. Here we reviewed current understanding of testosterone (TES) neuroprotective activity against ischemic stroke and mechanisms underlying these effects in aging. TES may exert a

Neonatal testosterone exposure protects adult male rats from stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Men have a higher stroke incidence compared to women until advanced age. The contribution of hormones to these sex differences has been extensively debated. In experimental stroke, estradiol is neuroprotective, whereas androgens are detrimental. However, prior studies have only examined

Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone and incident ischaemic stroke in men in the Cardiovascular Health Study.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Ischaemic stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in elderly men. Our main objective was to examine whether testosterone (T) or dihydrotestosterone (DHT) was associated with incident ischaemic stroke in elderly men. METHODS Cohort study. METHODS Elderly men in the Cardiovascular

Plasma Estradiol and Testosterone Levels and Ischemic Stroke in Postmenopausal Women.

Only registered users can translate articles

Background and Purpose- Although exogenous hormone therapy (HT) use has been associated with increased risk of ischemic stroke in postmenopausal women, it remains unknown whether sex hormone levels contribute to ischemic stroke risk. We aimed to estimate associations between plasma sex hormone

Decreased serum testosterone in men with acute ischemic stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Serum levels of total and free testosterone and 17 beta-estradiol were determined in 144 men with acute ischemic stroke and 47 healthy male control subjects. Blood samples from patients were drawn a mean of 3 days after stroke onset and also 6 months after admission in a subgroup of 45 patients.

Early post-haemorrhagic stroke testosterone and oestradiol levels and long-term risk of death.

Only registered users can translate articles

The influence of oestrogen and testosterone replacement on stroke risk has been examined, as well as mechanisms by which oestrogen may protect from post-stroke damage. However, whether testosterone levels in the early time period after haemorrhagic stroke influence long-term mortality has not
