Thursday, March 7, 2024

NEW YORK, March 7, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --Maze Sexual & Reproductive Health has announced the first pregnancy worldwide as a result of a new, minimally invasive procedure. Specifically, sperm are collected via Sperm Mapping, and then searched for and, if found, frozen or used fresh using Extended Sperm Search and Microfreeze (ESSM). They can then be injected into a partner's egg. The combined procedure, called Grid Needle Sperm Extraction and MicroSearch (GN-SEM), will allow some men with no sperm in the ejaculate (azoospermia) the ability to initiate a pregnancy without surgically opening up the testicle.

Key Points: 
  • Specifically, sperm are collected via Sperm Mapping, and then searched for and, if found, frozen or used fresh using Extended Sperm Search and Microfreeze (ESSM).
  • I'm extremely proud of the fact that we have profoundly changed the way we treat azoospermic and cryptospermic men.
  • With men with cryptospermia (very very few sperm in the ejaculate) we have found and frozen sperm in almost 100% of men! ''
  • As of today, Maze has 30 babies born from sperm collected through ESSM, and 97 men whose sperm are stored.

Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis Articles Provide Novel Insights into Previously Unknown Disease Mechanisms

XI'AN, China, Feb. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DCM is the leading cause of heart failure in patients with chronic diabetes, with unclear mechanisms and limited treatments. Another mystery is the regulation of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) in the central nervous system. Moreover, the link between the gut microbiome, microbiota-derived metabolites, and the progression of AD remains unknown. In the December issue of Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis (JPA), three articles explore the interconnected pathologies of DCM, hippocampal neurotoxicity, and AD, offering a comprehensive insight.

Key Points: 
  • Moreover, the link between the gut microbiome, microbiota-derived metabolites, and the progression of AD remains unknown.

Jelqing: the latest in a long history of attempts to enlarge the male member

Retrieved on: 
Thursday, February 15, 2024

Posts advise that stretching a semi-erect penis could add up to an inch in length and girth by exploiting the body’s repair mechanisms.

Key Points: 
  • Posts advise that stretching a semi-erect penis could add up to an inch in length and girth by exploiting the body’s repair mechanisms.
  • Jelqing is just the latest in a long line of dubious penis enlargement techniques stretching (sorry) back millennia.
  • The ancient Greek method of lengthening the foreskin with a kynodesme (dog leash) seems positively mild compared with ancient Indian methods.
  • Penis pumps are also used for erectile dysfunction, but unlike some online claims, they don’t lengthen the penis.

Surgical interventions

  • Fillers are increasing in popularity, particularly hyaluronic acid (HA) injections.
  • HA is popular because it is doesn’t generate an immune response.
  • Surgery to cut the suspensory ligament anchoring the penis is the most widely accepted surgical elongation method.
  • A recent review concluded that evidence for supporting surgical procedures for penis enlargement is weak and the complications are under-reported.

Not needed, in most cases

  • A micropenis, usually diagnosed at birth, is where the penis is 2.5 standard deviations less than the average stretched penis length (2.3 to 2.5cm depending on ethnicity).
  • It is typically caused by a deficiency or imbalance of hormones such as testosterone or human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), or genetics.
  • The female vagina is on average 2.5 to 3.8 inches deep, but lengthens during sexual arousal to accommodate a penis longer than this.
  • The female genitalia have multiple erogenous structures that can result in orgasm, so penile length isn’t the key characteristic.

A closer look at jelqing

  • The top two consist of numerous spaces that are surrounded by smooth muscle, which keeps most blood out of the spaces.
  • During an erection, the muscles relax allowing blood to flow in, filling these spaces, and enlarging penile volume.
  • While the theory sounds good, smooth muscle cells in the penis don’t respond in the same way skeletal muscle does.
  • If jelqing, or any other trend, was really that effective, we would have seen evidence of it in medical journals, and the sale of extra-large underwear would be making the headlines.

Alberta’s new policies are not only anti-trans, they are anti-evidence

Retrieved on: 
Monday, February 5, 2024

Like other experts, we worried these policies would mimic the parental rights legislation recently introduced in Saskatchewan and New Brunswick.

Key Points: 
  • Like other experts, we worried these policies would mimic the parental rights legislation recently introduced in Saskatchewan and New Brunswick.
  • Smith has unveiled a suite of policies that directly attack trans and gender-diverse children and youth in Alberta.
  • As we explain below, these policies are at odds with research about gender-affirming care, curriculum and sports.

Evidence on trans-affirming care

  • Like all medicines, side effects are a risk but researchers caution against fear-mongering in response to gender-affirming care.
  • The evidence about trans-affirming health care for youth is clear — it saves lives.
  • Rather than restrict life-saving medical care, experts in fertility medicine call for increased accessibility for trans people to fertility services.

Sex education evidence

  • Classroom instruction on gender, sexuality and sexual orientation also now requires parental notification and opt-in.
  • Finally, third-party resource materials on gender, sexuality and sexual orientation in schools need to be pre-approved by the ministry to make sure they’re “age-appropriate.” Education experts agree that what is needed to protect youth — including cisgender and heterosexual kids — from potential abuse is robust and consent-based sexual health education.
  • Youth have the right to knowledge and skills about their bodies, consent, safe/unsafe touch and healthy relationships.

Risk of parental, peer rejection

  • This process essentially requires schools to “out” youth to their parents, who may reject their children.
  • Smith incorrectly suggests that parental rejection of 2SLGBTQIA+ kids is rare.
  • For those who experience family rejection, the rates of suicide are incredibly high.

Trans athletes evidence

  • Smith’s policy will also ban trans girls and women athletes from participating in competitive women’s sports.
  • Some scientists maintain that trans women and girls have no “biological advantage” over cisgender girls and women.
  • A book on the topic that reviewed evidence on testosterone determined there is no direct relation between the hormone and athletic performance.

What’s the truth?

  • In contrast, trans youth who are affirmed in schools, health care and in sports have better self-confidence and relationships with their parents.
  • Smith has incorrectly warned there are risks associated with affirmation and inclusion in schools for trans kids.
  • It includes more information on clinical guidelines for the prescription of puberty blockers for the purposes of gender-affirming care.
