Journal ArticleDOI
The response to testosterone undecanoate in men with type 2 diabetes is dependent on achieving threshold serum levels (the BLAST study).
Geoffrey Hackett,N Cole,Mithun Bhartia,David Kennedy,Jessie Raju,Peter Wilkinson,Atif Saghir +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first double‐blind placebo‐controlled study conducted exclusively in a male type 2 diabetes population to assess the metabolic changes with testosterone replacement and indicates a threshold at which symptoms improve with physiological replacement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testosterone Undecanoate improves Sexual Function in Men with Type 2 diabetes and Severe Hypogonadism: Results from a 30 week randomized placebo controlled study.
Geoffrey Hackett,Nigel Cole,Atif Saghir,Peter W. Jones,Richards C. Strange,Sudarshan Ramachandran,Sudarshan Ramachandran +6 more
TL;DR: The sexual function response to 30 weeks’ treatment with long‐acting testosterone undecanoate (TU) or placebo or placebo in 199 men with type 2 diabetes and either severe or mild hypogonadism is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testosterone replacement therapy: improved sexual desire and erectile function in men with type 2 diabetes following a 30-week randomized placebo-controlled study.
Geoffrey Hackett,Nigel Cole,Atif Saghir,Peter W. Jones,Richard C. Strange,Sudarshan Ramachandran +5 more
TL;DR: This study confirms TRT leads to changes in SxD and EF at different time points and suggests Sxd and EF changes are related, and suggests sxD change after 6 weeks predicting EF change at 30 weeks is possibly a useful clinical finding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and characterisation of bone destruction in murine rheumatoid arthritis using statistical shape models
James M. Brown,Ewan A. Ross,Guillaume E. Desanti,Atif Saghir,Andrew R. Clark,Christopher D. Buckley,Andrew Filer,Amy J. Naylor,Ela Claridge +8 more
TL;DR: A fully automated method for obtaining quantitative measurements of bone destruction from volumetric micro‐CT images of a mouse hind paw is presented, suggesting that pathological bone shape changes can be usefully and objectively identified as deviations from the model statistics.
Journal ArticleDOI
TNFα depleting therapy improves fertility and animal welfare in TNFα-driven transgenic models of polyarthritis when administered in their routine breeding.
TL;DR: This study is the first to report that regular administration of infliximab is effective at suppressing disease activity and improving animal welfare in TNFΔARE animals and shows that inflixIMab is highly efficacious in improving breeding behaviour and increasing the number of litters sired by TNF ΔARE males.
