  • For all TT prescription subjects combined, the post/pre prescription rate ratio for MI (RR)was 1.36
  • In men aged 65 years and older the RR was 2.19 (1.27, 3.77), while in men under age 65 years the RR was 1.17
  • increasing RR with increasing age.
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • The RRs were 0.95 (0.54, 1.67) under 55 years
  • 1.35 (0.77, 2.38) at 55–59
  • 1.29 (0.71, 2.35) at 60–64,
  • 1.35 (0.44, 4.18) at 65–69, 1.62
  • 3.43 (1.54, 7.66) at 75 years and older
  • The adjusted post/pre RR for PDE5I across all ages was 1.08
  • For TT prescription, in men under age 65 years, the RR was 2.90 (1.49, 5.62) for those with a history of heart disease and 0.90 (0.61, 1.34) for those without
  • In men aged 65 year and older, the RR was 2.16 (0.92, 5.10) for those with a history of heart disease and 2.21 (1.09, 4.45) for those without.
  • Among men aged 65 years and older, we observed a two-fold increase in the risk of MI in the 90 days after filling an initial TT prescription
  • Among younger men with a history of heart disease, we observed a two to three-fold increased risk of MI in the 90 days following an initial TT prescription and no excess risk in younger men without such a history
  • Among older men, the two-fold increased risk was associated with TT prescription regardless of cardiovascular disease history
  • our own findings appear consistent with a higher frequency of thrombotic events following TT prescription among men with more extensive coronary vascular disease.
  • Our findings are consistent with a recent meta-analysis of placebo-controlled randomized trials of testosterone therapy lasting 12 or more weeks among mainly older men, which reported that testosterone therapy increased the risk of adverse cardiovascular-related events (OR = 1.54, 95%CI:1.09, 2.18), as well as serious adverse cardiovascular-related events (OR = 1.61, 95%CI:1.01, 2.56) which included myocardial infarction along with other conditions
  • This association appeared unrelated to average baseline testosterone level (p = 0.70) but varied by source of funding (p = 0.03), with a stronger summary effect in a meta-analysis of studies not funded by the pharmaceutical industry (OR = 2.06, 95%CI:1.34, 3.17) compared with studies funded by the pharmaceutical industry

      This supports prior analysis that studies done by pharmaceutical corps will be more favorable to their product(s) than those independently funded.  This is called bias.
  • the evidence supports an association between testosterone therapy and risk of serious, adverse cardiovascular-related events–including non-fatal myocardial infarction–in men
  • there is some evidence that low endogenous testosterone levels may also be positively associated with cardiovascular events
  • effects of endogenous and exogenous testosterone may differ. Exogenous testosterone (TT) is associated with physiologic changes that predispose to clotting and thrombotic disorders including increased blood pressure [18], polycythemia [19], reductions in HDL cholesterol [18], [20], and hyperviscosity of the blood and platelet aggregation. [20]–[23]; TT also increases circulating estrogens [24], [25] which may play a role in the observed excess of adverse cardiovascular-related events, given that estrogen therapy has been associated with this excess in both men and women
  • did not include information on the serologic or diagnostic indications for treatment.
  • no association between PDE5I prescriptions and the risk of MI
  • Recently TT has been increasing extraordinarily rapidly, including among younger men and among those without hormone measurement

KM 7501 Wheelchair - 0 views

    Ergonomic Wheelchair often spend a lot of time leaning on armrests or a table exactly because they are not being supported with good posture in their chairs. This is a matter of seat angle and back angle, adjusting them according to body shape and degree of upper body balance. Poor seating makes slump, trying to get stable. The optimal posture is more upright, allowing spine to support. Ergonomic chairs are designed to confirm to a person's physical dimensions, allowing them to sit naturally and comfortably for long periods of time, while reducing the risk of pressure ulcers. Ergonomic system (Intelligent s-shaped ergonomic seating) provides efficient pressure relief by spreading weight over a greater area, at the same time provides stabilization and reduced sliding.
