Comparison of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonists and Orchiectomy: Effects of Androgen-Deprivation Therapy.
IMPORTANCE Androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) through surgical castration is equally effective as medical castration in controlling prostate cancer (PCa). However, the adverse effect profiles of both ADT groups have never been compared. OBJECTIVE To provide a comparative effectiveness analysis of the adverse effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) vs bilateral orchiectomy i...
متن کاملRisk of cardiovascular thrombotic events after surgical castration versus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists in Chinese men with prostate cancer
We investigated the cardiovascular thrombotic risk after surgical castration (SC) versus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) in Chinese men with prostate cancer. All Chinese prostate cancer patients who were treated with SC or GnRHa from year 2000 to 2009 were reviewed and compared. The primary outcome was any new-onset of cardiovascular thrombotic events after SC or GnRHa, which wa...
متن کاملIncreased Risk of Pneumonia in Patients Receiving Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonists for Prostate Cancer
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists and subsequent risk of pneumonia in patients with prostate cancer (PC) using a population-based dataset. METHODS We obtained the data from Taiwan's Longitudinal Health Insurance Database 2000. We included 2064 PC in this study. Of the sampled PC patients, 1207 received...
متن کاملComparison of pregnancy outcomes of frozen embryo transfers in women undergoing artificial endometrial preparation with and without short and long-acting gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists
Background & aim: There are conflicting results regarding the benefit of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist treatment on frozen embryo transfer (FET) outcome. No study was found to compare pregnancy outcome between patients undergoing short and long acting types of GnRH agonist for FET cycles. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of short and long ac...
متن کاملPulsatile administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist to gilts actively immunized against gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
Sexually mature gilts (n = 20) were actively immunized against GnRH. Primary and booster immunizations of GnRH conjugated to bovine serum albumin induced production of antibodies in all gilts. Nineteen of the gilts became acyclic with suppressed concentrations of gonadotropins and estradiol. Intravenous challenges with 100 micrograms GnRH and 5 micrograms D-(Ala6, des-Gly-NH2(10)) ethylamide Gn...
