Abstract

The relative proportional increase of the elderly population within many countries will become one of the most significant social transformations of the twenty-first century and, for the first time in history, persons aged 65 or above outnumbered children under five years of age globally. One in four persons living in Europe and Northern America will be aged 65 or over. One of the goals of ISSAM is to raise awareness of the special health needs of older men. Since a significant number of aging men will eventually become testosterone deficient, the Hypogonadism panel of ISSAM updates its guidelines.

关于男性睾酮缺乏症的诊断、治疗和监测的建议

摘要

许多国家老年人口的相对比例增长将成为21世纪最重要的社会变革之一，全球65岁及以上人口数量首次超过5岁以下儿童。居住在欧洲和北美的人口中有四分之一的人年龄在 65 岁或以上。ISSAM 的目标之一是提高对老年男性特殊健康需求的认识。由于大量老年男性最终会缺乏睾酮，因此 ISSAM 的性腺功能减退症小组更新了其指南。
