fully devoted to review the wide variety of approaches to solving the problem.
The time is right for such a...
The increasing awareness on the varied consequences of hypogonadism in
distinct organs and systems has supported the notion of estrogens as systemic
agents. This observation is congruent with the variety of tissues affected by estrogens
when used in hormone therapy formulations on hypogonadic women.
Apart from the genital tract...
The mechanism by which cigarette smoke causes or contributes to inflammatory diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cardiovascular disease and cancer remains unclear. Recent developments in our knowledge of cellular signaling suggest that cigarette smoke may cause oxidative stress in cellular systems. The assessment,...
