Is a distinct cellular profile seen in the human endocervix during Chlamydia trachomatis infection?

Low testosterone levels in men presenting with an acute fracture may, at least in part, be due to an acute, fracture-associated, stress response. To avoid over diagnosis, evaluation for testosterone deficiency should be deferred until recovery from the acute event.
