CONTEXT The relationships between testosterone dose and its effects on sexual function, mood, and visuospatial cognition are poorly understood. OBJECTIVE To elucidate testosterone dose-response relationships in older men, we examined the effects of graded testosterone doses on sexual function, mood, and visuospatial cognition in healthy, older men (age, 60-75 yr).

Independent of whether natural mating or artificial insemination is used for breeding, libido (sex drive) is evidently crucial to reproductive competence in all male meat animal species. Breeding goat bucks vary in their levels of libido; therefore, there is a need for the development of a predictive standardized test for estimating sex drive. The objective of this study was to evaluate libido ...

To determine the effect of low protein intake on boar libido, semen characteristics, and plasma hormone concentrations, 20 crossbred boars (1 yr of age) were divided into 10 littermate pairs, and boars from within pairs were fed 44 g/kg of BW.75 per day of either a low-protein diet (7% CP) or a control diet (16% CP) with the same energy content (3.41 Mcal of ME/kg).

BACKGROUND Trypanosomiasis is a disease caused by Trypanosoma (Dutonella) vivax, a hemoprotozoa that can affect bovines. In South America, the sanguineous form is mechanically transmitted from one mammalian host (ruminant) to another by the bite of a blood-sucking insect or by needles contaminated with infected blood. The negative impact of the parasitosis caused by T. vivax infection on the re...

However there is scant evidence to support the use of DHEA for this purpose, and safety data for DHEA therapy are lacking. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulphate DHEAS are the most abundant circulating sex steroid hormones in women, providing a large precursor res...
