  • Anabolic Steroid Use Misuse and Addiction
    Anabolic Steroid Use, Misuse And Addiction JASSIN M. JOURIA Dr. Jassin M. Jouria is a medical doctor, professor of academic medicine, and medical author. He graduated from Ross University School of Medicine and has completed his clinical clerkship training in various teaching hospitals throughout New York, including King’s County Hospital Center and Brookdale Medical Center, among others. Dr. Jouria has passed all USMLE medical board exams, and has served as a test prep tutor and instructor for Kaplan. He has developed several medical courses and curricula for a variety of educational institutions. Dr. Jouria has also served on multiple levels in the academic field including faculty member and Department Chair. Dr. Jouria continues to serve as a Subject Matter Expert for several continuing education organizations covering multiple basic medical sciences. He has also developed several continuing medical education courses covering various topics in clinical medicine. Recently, Dr. Jouria has been contracted by the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Department of Surgery to develop an e-module training series for trauma patient management. Dr. Jouria is currently authoring an academic textbook on Human Anatomy & Physiology. ABSTRACT The synthetic versions of the male hormone testosterone, also known as anabolic steroids, can play an important role in the treatment of health conditions when used as prescribed by a medical clinician. However, misuse of anabolic steroids occurs when these substances are used solely to improve physical appearance or performance. Because there are some potentially serious physical effects of anabolic steroid use, it is important that anabolic steroids are only used as prescribed and always under a medical clinician’s guidance.

Electron J Gen Med. 2020;17(2):em187. https://doi.org/10.29333/ejgm/7617 ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Received: 25 Oct. 2019 Background: Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are synthetic testosterone like hormones. AAS usage by athletes Accepted: 30 Dec. 2019 has increased dramatically over the past decade. Material and Methods: This study was designed to examine the prevalence, attitude and awareness of AAS abuse among athletes n the Eastern province of Saud Arabia. This was a cross-sectional survey that was conducted among male athletes attending twenty fitness centres in the Eastern Province. It was done during the period from April to August, 2018. Results: A total of 573 questionnaires were distributed but only 503 participants were included n the final analysis. The frequency of AAS use was 17.69%. The man reason for AAS use was muscle building (68.54%). The man source of AAS was the coaches. 56.18% of the users recognize the harmful effects of AAS. The most commonly used oral AAS form was oxandrolone (61.80%). The most commonly used substance for post cycle therapy was Tamoxifen citrate n 67.42% of the users.

  • Combined Estrogen–Progestogen Menopausal Therapy
    COMBINED ESTROGEN–PROGESTOGEN MENOPAUSAL THERAPY Combined estrogen–progestogen menopausal therapy was considered by previous IARC Working Groups in 1998 and 2005 (IARC, 1999, 2007). Since that time, new data have become available, these have been incorporated into the Monograph, and taken into consideration in the present evaluation. 1.
