Chapter 1: pathophysiology of hypopituitarism in the setting of brain injury
Joshua R. Dusick,Christina Wang,Christina Wang,Pejman Cohan,Ronald S. Swerdloff,Ronald S. Swerdloff,Daniel F. Kelly +6 more
TL;DR: The hypotheses and available data concerning hypothalamic-pituitary vulnerability in the setting of head injury are discussed and four possible pathophysiological mechanisms are considered: the primary brain injury event, secondary brain insults, the stress of critical illness and medication effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of acute myocardial infarction on pituitary‐testicular function
TL;DR: The data suggest that following the medical stress of myocardial infarction, testosterone concentration was suppressed resulting in a compensatory rise in LH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prolactin inhibition of estrogen production by cultured rat granulosa cells.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PRL acts directly on rat granulosa cells in vitro to suppress basal and gonadotropin-induced increases in estrogen production and causes a dose-related increase in progesterone and 20 alpha-dihydroprogesterone secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of heroin addiction on pituitary‐testicular function
TL;DR: The effect of heroin addiction on pituitary‐testicular function was studied in 54 active and 19 abstinent addicts and their results were compared with those of 43 age‐matched controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Levonorgestrel implants (Norplant II) for male contraception clinical trials: combination with transdermal and injectable testosterone
I. T. Gaw Gonzalo,Ronald S. Swerdloff,Anita L. Nelson,B. Clevenger,R. Garcia,Nancy Berman,Christina Wang +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that Norplant II implants plus TE 100 mg/wk were very efficient in suppressing spermatogenesis and the dose or dose of administration of androgens is critical for sperm suppression in normal men.
