Metabolic effects of oestrogen treatment in patients with carcinoma of prostate: a comparison of stilboestrol and conjugated equine oestrogens.
Serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels were estimated and oral glucose tolerance tests performed on 16 patients with carcinoma of the prostate before treatment and while receiving stilboestrol in doses of 1 mg, 7.5 mg, and 15 mg daily and conjugated equine oestrogens (Premarin) 15 mg daily. Serum triglyceride levels were greater than 170 mg/100 ml in nearly all the patients while receiving P...
متن کاملEffect of stilboestrol on sodium balance, cardiac state, and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone activity in prostatic carcinoma.
A prospective study examined the sequential effects of diethylstilboestrol (stilboestrol) on sodium balance, cardiac state, and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone activity in six patients with metastatic carcinoma of the prostate. Whereas metabolic balance studies did not show evidence of sodium retention during the first seven days of treatment, there was a significant and progressive increase in p...
متن کاملThe isolation and properties of the monoglucuronides of stilboestrol, hexoestrol and dienoestrol.
The monoglucuronides of stilboestrol, hexoestrol and dienoestrol were isolated from the urine of rabbits during metabolism experiments described previously (Wilder Smith & Williams, 1948). Mazur & Schorr (1942) described the glucuronide of stilboestrol which they obtained from rabbits treated with stilboestrol. As far as we are aware the glucuronides of hexoestrol and dienoestrol have not been ...
متن کاملEffect of hormonal therapy on plasma testosterone levels in prostatic carcinoma.
Plasma concentrations of testosterone were estimated in normal men, in patients before treatment for prostatic cancer, and in patients who had had various forms of endocrine treatment for prostatic carcinoma. There was no decline in plasma testosterone levels with age. Patients with non-metastatic disease had levels similar to those of normal controls, but in advanced metastatic disease the lev...
متن کاملTestosterone recovery following prolonged adjuvant androgen ablation for prostate carcinoma.
