Mashup Score: 3Underneath the White Coat: Hypogonadism Among Male Resident Physicians - American Urological Association - 1 month(s) ago
Hypogonadism is a significant medical condition that has been gaining increased attention in recent years. The prevalence of hypogonadism varies, with estimates ranging from 2.1% to 30% in men ages 40 to 79, depending on the definition and population studied. The economic burden of hypogonadism is substantial, with one study estimating the 20-year cost of testosterone deficiency in US men ages 45 to 74 at $190 billion to $525 billion. The importance of addressing hypogonadism is underscored by its potential long-term health impacts, including increased risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis.

The Peak-End Rule (PER) occurs when an event is remembered more by what happens at the peak or the end than at any other point in the encounter. The Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman and his colleagues have shown that how we remember our past experiences is almost entirely determined by 2 things: the average of how the experience felt at its peak (best or worst), and how the experience felt when it ended.

Mashup Score: 0DIVERSITY Community-Based Interventions: A Powerful Tool Against Disparities and Inequities in Prostate Cancer - American Urological Association - 1 month(s) ago
On March 25, 1966, Dr Martin Luther King Jr spoke at the annual meeting of the Medical Committee for Human Rights in Chicago. Today, 58 years after that famous speech, in the US we still face one of the main issues as a nation—basic access to health care among minorities. Health disparities in prostate cancer (PCa) reflect the complex interplay between socioeconomics, environmental factors, and biology. Black men suffer the highest PCa incidence and mortality in the US. Among the Hispanic/Latino groups, Puerto Rican men have higher PCa mortality compared to non-Hispanic white men or Hispanic/Latino men living in the continental US, being second only to Black men. Despite the striking evidence, screenings among these groups are the lowest.
