330-360 / 1000+ resultsresearch A Risk-Benefit Assessment of Treatment with Finasteride in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Finasteride helps reduce prostate size and symptoms in BPH but is less effective than terazosin and works best for larger prostates.
research Fully automated chip-based nanoelectrospray ionization-mass spectrometry as an effective tool for rapid and high-throughput screening of 5α-reductase inhibitors
research Oral Presentations: Abstracts of the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand Annual Scientific Meeting, 25–28 February 2023, Melbourne, Australia
Urologists should monitor mental health in patients taking finasteride due to potential links to suicidal thoughts, adjusting dosage or stopping use if necessary. More research is needed to confirm if finasteride causes these thoughts.
research 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor Use and Prostate Cancer Prevention: A Victim of the Times?
5-Alpha reductase inhibitors are safe long-term but may be outdated for preventing less significant prostate cancer.
research 5‐α reductase inhibitors and the risk of anaemia among men with benign prostatic hyperplasia: A population‐based cohort study
5α-reductase inhibitors do not increase anaemia risk compared to α-blockers in men with BPH.
research The endoscopic surgical monitoring system-guided impact factors exploring of blood loss and fluid absorption during plasmakinetic TURP: a prospective study in high-risk BPH patients
Larger prostate size, longer surgery, and smoking increase risks, while finasteride and experienced surgeons reduce them during prostate surgery.
research Telitacicept for systemic lupus erythematosus with post‑surgical papillary thyroid carcinoma: A case report
Telitacicept helped stabilize complement levels in a patient with lupus and thyroid cancer.
research Provenge is Talk of GU Malignancies Congress
Provenge extends prostate cancer survival by about 4 months.
research 2022 Update on Prostate Cancer Epidemiology and Risk Factors—A Systematic Review
Prostate cancer is common, but risk can be reduced by avoiding smoking, unhealthy diet, inactivity, certain medications, and risky jobs.
research Investigation, treatment and monitoring of late‐onset hypogonadism in males: ISA, ISSAM, and EAU recommendations
Testosterone treatment for older men can have short-term benefits, but long-term risks are unclear, requiring careful evaluation and monitoring.
research Vaccines, adjuvants and autoimmunity
Vaccines are generally safe, but rare autoimmune reactions can occur, often influenced by genetics.
research Investigation, Treatment, and Monitoring of Late‐Onset Hypogonadism in Males: ISA, ISSAM, and EAU Recommendations
Men with low testosterone should be carefully evaluated and monitored before and during treatment.
research Indian Medicinal Herbs and Formulations for Alzheimer’s Disease, from Traditional Knowledge to Scientific Assessment
Indian herbs like Bacopa monnieri and Centella asiatica may help memory, but more research is needed.
research Hormone replacement therapy in morphine-induced hypogonadic male chronic pain patients
Testosterone therapy can improve hormone levels and quality of life in men with morphine-induced hormone issues.
research 5alpha-reductase: history and clinical importance.
5alpha-reductase inhibitors like finasteride and dutasteride effectively treat BPH by reducing DHT, offering symptom relief and potential future uses.
research Radiosensitization and Radioprotection by Curcumin in Glioblastoma and Other Cancers
Curcumin may improve cancer radiotherapy by making cancer cells more sensitive to radiation and protecting normal cells.
research Testosterone alters iron metabolism and stimulates red blood cell production independently of dihydrotestosterone
Testosterone boosts red blood cell production and changes iron metabolism without needing dihydrotestosterone.
research Scientific opinion on the tolerable upper intake level for selenium
Adults should not consume more than 255 micrograms of selenium per day to avoid risk of hair loss and other side effects.
research Endocrinology of the Aging Prostate: Current Concepts
Hormones affect prostate health and disease, with certain hormone imbalances linked to prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying generalized glucocorticoid resistance and hypersensitivity syndromes
Genetic defects in the glucocorticoid receptor gene can cause conditions with abnormal sensitivity to stress hormones, and other factors may also affect this sensitivity.
research A comment on the post-finasteride syndrome
The true incidence of post-Finasteride syndrome is unclear, and more research is needed.
research The therapeutic, diagnostic, and prognostic values of extracellular vesicles (exosomes) in dermatology: A systematic review
Extracellular vesicles show potential in dermatology, but more research is needed for validation.
research Dihydrotestosterone, and Not Testosterone, Enhances the LPS-Induced Inflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Human Adipocytes
Dihydrotestosterone boosts inflammation in fat cells more than testosterone.
research The Role of 11-Oxygenated Androgens and Endocrine Disruptors in Androgen Excess Disorders in Women
PCOS involves high 11-oxygenated androgens and BPA may worsen it, while IH is not inflammatory.
research An Overview of Growth Factors as the Potential Link between Psoriasis and Metabolic Syndrome
Abnormal growth factor metabolism may link psoriasis and metabolic syndrome, and obesity can affect psoriasis treatment effectiveness.
