Background and Objective: Information on the long-term effects of anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) use on the myocellular properties of human skeletal muscle is scarce, despite being the primary target of AAS. Animal studies suggest persistence of upregulated myonuclei numbers following AAS discontinuation. Few human studies have investigated the effects of AAS on human skeletal muscle cell morphology and exclusively focused on current AAS users. No data exist elucidating th...

Context: Acromegaly is a rare and insidious disease associated with severe somatic morbidity but data on socioeconomic status are scarce.Objective: To study the socioeconomic status in acromegaly in a population based, nationwide follow-up study.Patients and Methods: All incident cases of acromegaly (n = 576) during the period 1997–2010 were included, representing 10.116 years at risk. For every patient, 100 pers...
