on myocardial ischemia in men with coronary artery disease.
American.Journal.of.Cardiology 1999;83:437-439.
Abstract: The effect of acute testosterone administration
on exercise-induced myocardial ischemia was assessed in 14
men with coronary artery disease and low plasma testosterone
concentrations in a study of randomized, double-blind, crossover
design. Testosterone increased time to 1-mm ST-segment depression
compared with placebo by 66 (15 to 117) seconds (p = 0.016),
suggesting a beneficial effect of testosterone on myocardial
ischemia in these patients.
Notes: Confirms Peter Collins other studies that
testosterone dilates the coronary arteries.
