Abstract

Objective: To examine the effects of testosterone administration to older hypogonadal males (bioavailable testosterone less than 70 ng/dL). Design: Alternate‐case controlled trial. Setting: St. Louis University. Patients: Eight males (mean age 77.6 ± 2.3 years) who received testosterone and six males (mean age 76 ± 2.3 years) who served as controls. Selected from alumni of the SHEP trial and attendees at the St. Louis University Impotence Clinic. Interventions: Testosterone enanthate (200 mg/mL) was administered intramuscularly to the treatment group every 2 weeks for 3 months. Measurements: Serum testosterone, bioavailable testerone and estradiol, weight, % body fat, right hand muscle strength, balance, cholesterol, HDL‐cholesterol, hematocrit, BUN, creatinine, albumin, calcium, PTH, 25(OH) vitamin D, 1,25 (OH) 2 vitamin D, osteocalcin, prostate‐specific antigen, and fructosamine. Results: Males who received testosterone had a significant increase in testosterone and bioavailable testosterone concentration, hematocrit, right hand muscle strength and osteocalcin concentration. They had a decrease in cholesterol (without a change in HDL‐cholesterol) levels and decreased BUN/Creatinine ratios. Conclusion: These preliminary findings support the need for long term studies of testosterone therapy in older hypogonadal males.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
