Research on testosterone is increasing in many senses; however
there is still much controversy regarding its physiology and
clinical use. This book addresses these topics, providing a broad
over view about testosterone, from its basic fea tures to the most
recent evidence of clin ical applicability. Also, specific
conditions in which testosterone play a pivotal role are discussed
in detail, such as hypogonadism, misuse and abuse, puberty,
cardiovascular effects and testosterone therapy. Although not
essential for survival, testosterone represents the essence of male
biological function, being the important testicular androgen in
men. Low serum testosterone levels are asso ciated with
cardiovascular morbidity, meta bolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes
mellitus, atherosclerosis, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and mortality.
Conversely, increased serum levels of testosterone may lead to
deleteri ous events. In general, there is increasing evidence that
serum testosterone is a major biomarker status of men's health in
general. Testosterone: From Basic to Clinical Aspects is an
indispensable reference for all those who seek state-of-the-art
knowledge regarding this hormone, from basic issues (including
pharma cology and physiology) through clinical aspects (related
diseases and supplementation ther apy).
