Are published normal ranges of serum testosterone too high?
The lower limit of normal for serum testosterone was 3-4 nmol/L (0.86-1.15 microg/L) lower than that of published ranges. The results have important implications for the diagnosis of hypogonadism and use of testosterone replacement therapy.
We conclude that in early follow up AAA which diminish in diameter following endoluminal repair remain isolated from the general circulation. Co-incident with this decrease in AAA diameter, the proximal and distal necks increase in diameter but do not undergo any shortening in length. This paradoxical increase in neck diameter, was not progressive in the period of follow-up.
