RESUMO

Gonadotropin therapy is commonly used to induce virilization and spermatogenesis in male isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) patients. In clinical practice, 5.6%-15.0% of male IHH patients show poor responses to gonadotropin treatment; therefore, testosterone (T) supplementation can serve as an alternative therapy to normalize serum T levels and promote virilization. However, treatment with exogenous T impairs spermatogenesis and suppresses intratesticular T levels. This retrospective study aimed to determine whether oral testosterone undecanoate (TU) supplementation together with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) would negatively affect spermatogenesis in IHH patients compared with hCG alone. One hundred and seven IHH patients were included in our study. Fifty-four patients received intramuscular hCG and oral TU, and 53 patients received intramuscular hCG alone. The median follow-up time was 29 (range: 12-72) months in both groups. Compared with the hCG group, the hCG/TU group required a shorter median time to normalize serum T levels (P < 0.001) and achieve Tanner stage (III and V) of pubic hair and genital development (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the rate of seminal spermatozoa appearance, sperm concentration, or median time to achieve different sperm concentration thresholds between the groups. In addition, there were no significant differences in side effects, such as acne and gynecomastia, observed in both groups. This study indicates that oral TU supplementation together with hCG does not impair spermatogenesis in treated IHH patients compared with hCG alone, and it shortens the time to normalize serum T levels and promote virilization.

RESUMO

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the benefit and safety of continuous femoral nerve block in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From December 2008 to August 2009, 80 patients with total knee arthroplasty were randomly divided into two groups, 40 patients in each group. In group A the pain-control was dominanted by continuous femoral nerve block, there were 5 males adn 35 females with an average age of (65.0 +/- 4.2) years old; In group B the pump of vein odynolysis was used, there were 5 males and 35 females with an average age of (64.7 +/- 8.5) years old. The treatment of relieve pain continued for 3 days. The pain of visual analog scale (VAS), sleep condition, early-stage rehabilitation and adverse effects were recorded.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The VAS scores of group A was lower than that of group B at 2, 6, 24, 36, 48, 56, 72 h after operation (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01); The sleep condition and early-stage rehabilitation of group A were better than that of group B. The complications of group B occurrenced more than group A; The analgetica of group B were used more than that of group A.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The continuous femoral nerve block is an effective pain relieve method and is benefical to rehabilitation from total knee arthroplasty early.</p>
