Neuzillet et al.1 present a timely paper that aims to describe both quality of life(QoL)and erectile function(EF)changes as well as their potential preoperative predictors,specifically metabolic factors,after radical ...
This study aims to investigate whether clinical and biological preoperative characteristics of patients who were to undergo radical prostatectomy were associated with impairment in patient-reported quality of life(QoL...
This study was funded by the Foch Foundation,a nonprofit institution,and a grant of the French Ministry of Health/DGOS/CRC3F.
Robust data evaluating the association of preoperative parameters of the patients with quality of life after radical prostatectomy are lacking.We investigated whether clinical and biological preoperative characteristi...
Androgen deprivation therapy(ADT)with gonadotropin-releasing hormone(GnRH)agonists and antagonists is the mainstay of advanced prostate cancer treatment.Both drug classes decrease levels of luteinizing hormone and fol...
Male obesity is associated with subfertility and increased disease risk of offspring.It is unknown if effects can be reversed through pharmacological interventions.Five-to 6-week-old C57BL6 male mice were fed control ...
Androgen deprivation in men leads to increased adiposity, but the mechanisms underlying androgen regulation of fat mass have not been fully defined. Androgen receptor (AR) is expressed in monocytes/macrophages, whic...
We aimed to determine the impact of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on reproductive function in men with secondary infertility, a condition that has received relatively little attention from researchers. Complete demograp...
This multi-center, cross-sectional study investigated the association between serum testosterone (T) levels, serum sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels, and the risk of metabolic syndrome (MS) in 3332 adul...
Previous studies have showed that men suffering from diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obesity have a higher risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The present study aimed to examine the associ...
This study was supported in part by grant from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 81272837).
The global incidence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) is dramatically increasing. Considerable interest has been devoted to the relationship between MetS and prostate cancer (PCa) risk. However, few studies have exami...
