Effect of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on Prostate Tissue [Short Title: DHT-3]
Completed
The purpose of this research study is to understand the effects of a male hormone normally made in the body called Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on the prostate gland that is located under the bladder. The knowledge gained from this study may be used to help in the future to develop a safe male hormonal contraceptive to prevent pregnancy, in the safe treatment of low male hormone levels in men, and in the treatment and prevention of diseases of the prostate. The investigators will be giving DHT in... Read More

Multi-Site Randomized Clinical Study of Tinnitus Treatment Methods
Completed
The purpose of this multi-site randomized clinical study was to assess treatment outcomes for three forms of tinnitus treatment: Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT), Tinnitus Masking, and Tinnitus Education (TED). There were four study sites: VAMC Audiology Clinics at Bay Pines, FL; Portland, OR; Seattle, WA; and San Diego, CA. Thirty-six subjects (Veterans) were enrolled into treatment at each site - 12 into each treatment group. Each subject received 18 months of treatment. Treatment appointment... Read More

Metabolic Effects of Steroids in Obese Men
Unknown
Subjects will be randomized into 4 study groups: 1. Placebo; 2. Anastrazole and Testosterone; 3. Dutasteride and Testosterone; and 4. Testosterone only. A 2 step euglycemic clamp, body composition by dual X-ray absorptiometry scan, hormone and lipid assays will be performed to monitor metabolic effects of each treatment group. We hypothesize that increasing testosterone levels would increase lean mass, decrease fat mass and improve insulin sensitivity. We further hypothesize that improvements in... Read More

Effect of Lactose, Fructose, Sucrose, Whey Protein, and Soy Protein on Substrate Absorption and Oxidation: a Pilot Study
Completed
Does the consumption of various combinations of mono and disaccharides (lactose, sucrose and fructose) and protein isolates (whey or soy) result in altered substrate absorption, substrate oxidation, and glucose regulation? This proposed research will provide data to determine the relative contribution of source of protein (whey vs soy) and carbohydrate (mono- and disaccharides) on the observed effects of dairy products on absorption, substrate oxidation and glucoregulation mechanisms that affect...

AndroGel in Men With Major Depression and Incomplete Response to Antidepressant Treatment
Completed
We hypothesize that AndroGel may offer some relief to subjects with low or borderline testosterone levels who suffer from depression and have failed to respond to a trial of a standard antidepressant. During this nine week, outpatient, double-blind study, male subjects between the ages of 30 and 65 years with treatment-refractory depression and low or borderline low testosterone levels will be treated with either AndroGel or placebo. Following this nine week, double-blind phase, eligible subjec... Read More

Effect of Testosterone Therapy in Men With Alzheimer's Disease and Low Testosterone
Completed
Treatment with testosterone can improve performance on tests of spatial ability in men with low testosterone levels and Alzheimer's disease. Improved performance on these tests may mean an improved ability to get around in one's environment without getting lost or injured. This could have a positive impact on both patients and those who care for them. We will investigate what areas of the brain are involved in these improvements in spatial ability. This will be done using a PET scan, which creat... Read More

The Role of 5-alpha Reductase in Mediating Testosterone Actions
Completed
In normal men, the male hormone testosterone affects a number of things in the body including muscle function and sexual function. An enzyme in the body called 5-alpha reductase converts testosterone into another form called dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which has slightly different effects. The purpose of this study is to find out how different amounts of the two different forms of testosterone affect muscle function and sexual function in healthy young men like you. This will be done by giving the... Read More
