This book aims to address a number of controversies concerning the use of testosterone treatment. It explains topics that clinicians regularly encounter such as whether to use free or total testosterone in the evaluation of the patient with testosterone deficiency; what factors actually impact testosterone levels, polycythemia, gynecomastia, bone density, and hyperprolactinemia in the testosterone deficient patient; critical analysis of the numerous questionnaires that are available to clinicians; and the impact of testosterone therapy on male fertility, cardiovascular disease, and prostate events including prostate cancer. Guiding the reader in both evaluation and management, the book also illuminates novel concepts in the T space such as testosterone use in the transgender population, T therapy as an endothelial modulator, bipolar testosterone therapy in the patient with advanced prostate cancer, and testosterone therapy as a performance enhancer. Controversies in Testosterone Deficiency is intended for any clinician involved in the care of patients with testosterone deficiency, exploring hot topics and correcting existent misinformation in the routine care of patients.

Androgen Deficiency and Testosterone Replacement: Current Controversies and Strategies explores the difficulties around the diagnosis and treatment of androgen deficiency. The text examines the available evidence concerning the diagnosis and treatment of men with low testosterone. It also examines controversies in the identification and management of these men. While the information contained within will be of use to those who specialize in androgen deficiency and sexual medicine, the scope of the book will serve as a source of basic information about testosterone replacement and as a source of reasoned analysis of the controversies surrounding testosterone replacement in the aging male. Physicians and physician extenders will be able to apply evidence management principles to the evaluation and treatment of men with testosterone deficiency; supported by the most recent practice guidelines available. The authors represent a select group of physicians with expertise in androgen deficiency and replacement. Androgen Deficiency and Testosterone Replacement: Current Controversies and Strategies will be of great value to all physicians and physician extenders who deliver health care to men of all ages.

This book outlines the approach to comprehensive men’s health deployed at three of the most successful American men’s health centers. It demonstrates the ways in which multidisciplinary care allows patients to easily access their doctors via coordination of care, same day add-on visits, and streamlining of office logistics such as sharing of charts, reports, and results. Guiding readers in establishing an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to the management of male patients of all ages, this volume shows how prevention, rapid intervention, cost efficiency, and coordinated care are at the forefront of a health center’s care strategy. The authors of this volume are thought leaders in the disciplines of cardiology, gastroenterology, dermatology, psychiatry, and preventative medicine. Design and Implementation of the Modern Men’s Health Center: A Multidisciplinary Approach enables urologists, medical subspecialists, and surgical subspecialists to both manage basic patient issues and also to understand how multidisciplinary care enables the success of a men’s health center.

Background The part of the population that belongs to the oldest-old (ages 80 years or older) increases rapidly, worldwide. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and disease burden globally. Multimorbidity is common in old age and stroke, diabetes mellitus (DM) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are strongly associated with age. Cardiovascular risk factors are well studied and documented in younger and middle ages, but not as well in old and frail individuals. Therefore, preventive treatment choices are mostly based on evidence for younger patients. The aim of this thesis was to explore age and other aspects of cardiovascular risk factors; AF, hypertension and DM, in relation to comorbidity, cardiovascular outcome and mortality. Methods This thesis was based on four different studies: The ELSA85 study of 85 years old in Linköping, SwedenThe international, multicentre, randomised controlled INTERACT2 trial of spontaneous intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), mean age 64 years.The prospective SHADES study of nursing home residents, mean age 85 years.The prospective, national SWE-diadep study of dispensed antidiabetics, antidepressantsand prevalent myocardial infarction (MI) in 45-84 years old. Data was obtained from questionnaires (ELSA85, INTERACT2), medical records and medical examination (ELSA85, INTERACT2, SHADES), and national registers (SWE-Diadep). Results The ELSA85 study showed that 16% (n=53) had an ECG showing AF. There was an increased hazard ratio (HR) for all-cause mortality in participants with AF at baseline, at 90 years of age (HR 1.59, 95% [Confidence Interval] CI 1.04-2.44) adjusted for sex. This increase in HR did not persist when adjusted for congestive heart failure (CHF). In the INTERACT2 study, increasing age was associated with increasing frequency of death or dependency (odds ratio [OR] 4.36, 95% [CI] 3.12-6.08 for >75 years vs <52 years, p value for trend <0.001). The SHADES study showed that participants with Systolic blood pressure (SBP) <120 mmHg had an increased HR for mortality (1.56, 95% CI, 1.08–2.27; p=0.019) but there were no differences between SBP groups 140–159 mmHg and ?160 mmHg compared with the reference group SBP 120–139 mmHg. SBP decreased during the prospective study period. In the SWE-diadep study, individuals with antidiabetics and antidepressants combined had a greater HR for MI compared to the reference of no antidiabetics or antidepressants, mostly so in women aged 45-64 years (HR 7.4, 95% CI: 6.3-8.6). Conclusion Risk factors for CVDs in elderly differ from cardiovascular risk factors in middle aged individuals an

Popular culture often equates testosterone with virility, strength, and the macho male physique. Viewed by some as an "antiaging tonic," testosterone's reputation and increased use by men of all ages in the United States have outpaced the scientific evidence about its potential benefits and risks. In particular there has been growing concern about an increase in the number of middle-aged and older men using testosterone and the lack of scientific data on the effect it may have on aging males. Studies of testosterone replacement therapy in older men have generally been of short duration, involving small numbers of participants and often lacking adequate controls. Testosterone and Aging weighs the options of future research directions, examines the risks and benefits of testosterone replacement therapy, assesses the potential public health impact of such therapy in the United States, and considers ethical issues related to the conduct of clinical trials. Testosterone therapy remains an attractive option to many men even as speculation abounds regarding its potential.

New developments in testosterone therapy are summarized here by internationally renowned experts. They review both basic and clinical knowledge in fourteen chapters. The book begins with the biochemistry of testosterone, its biosynthesis, metabolism and mechanisms of action in target organs. Three chapters deal with specific aspects of testosterone action, namely its role in spermatogenesis, its psychotropic effects and its effects on bones. Syndromes caused by androgen resistance are described in order to highlight the importance of properly functioning enzymes and receptors in the target organs. Causes and symptoms of male hypogonadism, the major indication for testosterone treatment, are described. Five chapters are devoted to the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and clinical uses and abuses of testosterone preparations. The new transdermal testosterone application is described in detail. Side effects of testosterone treatment are reviewed. The possible role of androgens in the development of prostatic hypertrophy and carcinoma is discussed extensively since this question is of major concern to the clinician.

This new edition updates the previous one and adds additional content related to postoperative management, pain management, LGBTQ care, and uroradiology. This book is designed to meet the needs of nurse practitioners, advanced practice nurses globally and physician assistants working in urology. Content assumes some background knowledge regarding the normal anatomy and physiology of the genitourinary system and the pathophysiology underlying specific urologic health-related problems. This ensures that the provider can pursue exemplary management of patients with acute and chronic urologic conditions in a wide variety of settings, including independent practices, and academic urologic practices. This manual fills the gaps that traditional curricula may have left, permitting the reader to proceed with confident management of adult patients with urologic care needs, promoting the role of a skilled clinician in urology, especially for chronic, non-operative urologic conditions while recognizing those conditions which may benefit from surgical management.As the burden of urologic disease increases with an aging U.S. population, it is increasingly clear that nurse practitioners and physician assistants will be called on to move into roles caring for patients with urologic disease. Use of NPs and PAs to their highest education will become an increasingly important strategy for maintaining access and reducing costs, in the context of urologist workforce that is shrinking. However, urology topics receive sporadic attention in NP and PA curricula, leaving practicing NPs and PAs with gaps in their knowledge concerning trends and recommendations for management of urologic health conditions. As this demand for provider visits for urologic concerns increases, the demand for provider services to care for patients with urologic health concerns will also increase, and presents the opportunity for both NPs and PAs to move into specialty practice environments within urology.
