Effect of Testosterone Replacement Therapy on Cognitive Performance and Depression in M... - 0 views

  • Azad et al [15] used single photon emission computed tomography and showed that, after 3~5 weeks of TRT, cerebral perfusion was increased in the midbrain and the superior frontal gyrus in seven men with hypogonadism
  • After 12~14 weeks, increased perfusion was still observed in the midbrain as well as in the midcingulate gyrus
  • TDS patients who received TRT showed significant improvement in cognitive function only if mild cognitive impairment was present at baseline
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Cherrier et al [17] evaluated a sample of 32 subjects, which included 17 men with mild cognitive impairment and 15 with Alzheimer's disease. At the 6-week follow-up, patients who received TRT showed significantly better scores regarding spatial memory, constructional abilities, and verbal memory compared to those noted in the placebo group. Taken together, these results suggest that TRT has a beneficial effect on cognitive function
  • TRT improved mood and well-being, and reduced fatigue and irritability in hypogonadal men
  • The study by Pope et al [20] involved men with depression refractory to standard anti-depressants, and found that TRT lowered the Hamilton Depression score,
  • depression tends to increase as testosterone levels decrease [21], it is highly likely that TRT improved symptoms of depression by increasing testosterone levels.
  •  
    men with Testosterone <300 ng/dl with levels after 8 months of therapy achieving +680 ng/dl.

R O M Knee Brace - 0 views

  •  
    PF Night Splint Compared to plantar based splints, patients prefer dorsal models because they are less bulky, cooler, lower profile and easier to walk in at night. PF Night Splint includes all of these features and more. Neoprene calf and toe straps along with gel padding on the top of the foot help reduce pressure points and the plastic-free bottom offers safer nighttime ambulation. Even added more room in the forefoot to accommodate wider feet and new flexible shell allows easier nighttime ambulation without compromising the ability to hold the foot at 90° during rest. Finally, a plantar fasciitis splint patients will wear all night! Neoprene calf. Padded foam liner. Fits right or left. Not made with natural rubber latex. PF Night Splint (Derotation) Applications Prevention and correction of foot drop. Night splint for early healing. Ambulatory, can be used as a day splint. Perfect post-operative immobilisation and derotation. Peroneal / Peritibial nerve or muscle damage. Ankle or Plantar flexion contracture and functional alignment. Can be used to protect the diabetic/ injured ankle & foot. PF Night Splint (Derotation) Features Removable de-rotation bar. Moulded foot casing, aesthetically pleasing and durable. Effective Liner, improved comfort. Highly functional Design, customized degree of dorsiflexion. Double strapping mechanism, better grip. Tynor R O M Knee Brace Prefabricated, custom adjusted R.O.M. Knee Brace controls and restrict flexion/extension of the knee joint through a multi-point joint fixation system to allow a range of motion or immobilization to the knee. Universal design allows it to be used on quite a big range of population and for a multiple orthopedic problems associated with knee joint. Immobilization at any angle Controlled motion between any two angles Quick and easy application and removal. Tynor R O M Knee Brace Features R.O.M. Dial 0 to 120 degree flexion. 0 to 60 degree hyper extention Locking at any

Transdermal testosterone replacement therapy in men - 0 views

  • a recent study has suggested that it may sometimes be inaccurate because of abnormal fluctuation of other circulating androgens
    • Nathan Goodyear
       
      The authors are referencing the increase in the suggestions to use other testing techniques i.e. saliva.
  • Testosterone therapy can inhibit hepcidin transcription and is associated with increased iron incorporation into red blood cells and increased erythropoietin concentrations
  • Transdermal TRT has a more favorable adverse effect profile when compared to buccal testosterone formulations
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • testosterone concentrations should be checked 2–3 months after initiation of therapy and after adjusting the dose
  • the recommendation for injectable testosterone esters is to check the serum concentration midway between injections
  • it is recommended for serum testosterone to be evaluated 3 to 12 hours after application of the transdermal patch
  • Approximately 0.3% of testosterone is converted into estradiol by aromatase (CYP19A1)
  • a study from 1989 utilizing testosterone transdermally containing 5, 10, or 15 mg of testosterone showed that peak concentrations of testosterone were achieved 3 to 8 hours after scrotal application in hypogonadal men
  • measure serum testosterone any time after the patient has been on treatment with gel for at least 1 week
  • evaluate serum testosterone at the end of the dosing interval for testosterone pellets
  • increased amount of fat leads to increased extragonadal aromatase activity, resulting in increased concentrations of estradiol. High circulating concentrations of estradiol down regulate the HPG axis and decrease the amount of circulating testosterone
  • Up to 80% of plasma estradiol originates from aromatization of testosterone and less than 20% of estradiol in the circulation is secreted by the testes
  • A PSA concentration, digital rectal examination, and hematocrit should be performed at baseline and at 3 months, 6 months, then yearly after TRT is initiated.
  • It is used for many medications and has the advantage of high bioavailability, absence of hepatic first pass metabolism, increased therapeutic efficacy, and steadiness of plasma concentrations of the drug
  • If the hematocrit rises above 54%, treatment should be discontinued
  • elderly men having higher estradiol serum concentrations than postmenopausal women

Tricycle Manufacturers - 0 views

    Tricycles make cycling accessible to all, whatever personal challenges. There are a wide range of disability cycles that suit people with a variety of learning and physical disabilities, as well as health issues. Tricycles have 3 wheels, which means that the rider does not need to be able to balance. This is particularly useful for people with learning disabilities, such as Dyspraxia, and those recovering from illnesses. Tricycles can be fitted with foot plates to make it easier for riders to rotate the pedals and they come in upright or recumbent (horizontal sitting position). For adults and children with balance issues, stabilisers can also be fitted to standard bikes, which makes them more like tricycles. Tricycles come in a variety of accessible styles for people of all abilities including many persons with spinal cord injury disabilities. Tricycles is a great upper body workout and can provide a great sense of freedom for persons with disabilities. While the high cost prevents many from enjoying Tricycles they are steadily growing in popularity. Tricycle Deluxe Double Hand Drive: Frame : Made by E.R.W. Tubes 38.0 mm-16 G. 25.4 mm & 22.22 mm- 18 G. Seat & Back: M S, C.R.C. Sheet. Seat Size 18"x 16" Wheel Size: Wheel Diameter 24"x 1 1/2" Tyre and Tube Standard Company. Parts: Standard Quality. Color: Black Painted. Brake: Front Wheel liver System Drive: Rear Wheel Right Side. Hand powered cycles work along the same principle as standard cycles. The pedals are replaced with handles that also steer, and riders use their arms to push the handles around to drive the chain and wheels. Most hand cycles have 3 wheels, although some have 4 wheels. 4-wheel cycles may have power assistance instead of the rider turning handles,or they may be built for going down hill, in which case gravity powers the bike. As with tricycles, hand cycles can have upright seats or low down recumbent seats. Specialist 'clip on' cycles are also available that can be attached
