Sex Differences Between Female and Male Individuals in Antipsychotic Efficacy and Adverse Effects in the Treatment of Schizophrenia
ConclusionsWhile overall sex differences were limited across efficacy and tolerability for antipsychotic treatment, there were some specific findings with risperidone. Further examination of sex differences within antipsychotic trials will be important to improve efficacy and reduce adverse responses across as well as individualising care for people with schizophrenia.

Screening Mammography for Males With Elevated Breast Cancer Risk, Mutation Carriers, and Gynecomastia
CONCLUSION: Gynecomastia may be associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in carriers. Larger studies are needed to determine whether and when to screen male carriers.PMID:38670861 | DOI:10.1016/j.clbc.2024.03.014 (Source: Clinical Breast Cancer)

Anthropometric indices fail to predict complications after mastectomy for gynecomastia in adolescents
Gynecomastia is the abnormal enlargement of male glandular breast tissue. It is common during puberty and typically resolves spontaneously. However, approximately 10% of patients experience persistent and often permanent breast enlargement. Gynecomastia can have negative psychological effects on adolescents and may predispose them to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and reduced quality of life.1,2 Although routine management involves watchful waiting, there is evidence suggesting that surgical intervention before age 18 may lead to better psychosocial outcomes.

Infra-areolar subcutaneous mastectomy in the surgical treatment of adolescent gynecomastia
ConclusionsThe results of infra-areolar subcutaneous mastectomy are very promising in pubertal gynecomastia due to good skin elasticity and without obesity in the adolescent age group. We believe that this method provides an almost invisible incision and a natural pectoral appearance for adolescent patients who have experienced serious emotional problems related to their body images.

Gynecomastia Surgery in 4996 Male Patients Over 14 Years: A Retrospective Analysis of Surgical Trends, Predictive Risk Factors, and Short-Term Outcomes
CONCLUSION: In this study, we analyzed 4996 male adult GS patients from the ACS-NSQIP database, revealing an increased caseload and significant general surgeon involvement. Risk factors like bleeding disorders, inpatient status, and prior sepsis were linked to postoperative complications, while BMI was crucial for predicting adverse events. Overall, our findings may aid in enhancing patient care through advanced preoperative screening and closer perioperative management.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

Comparison of different medical treatments for primary hyperaldosteronism: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The present NMA indicated that the blood pressure reduction and potassium-correcting effects of the three MRAs may demonstrate marginal differences, with confidence levels in the evidence being very low. Therefore, further research is needed to explore the efficacy of these MRAs, especially regarding their impact on mortality and cardiovascular outcomes.TRIAL REGISTRATION: PROSPERO (CRD: 42023446811).PMID:38511069 | PMC:PMC10953100 | DOI:10.1177/20406223241239775 (Source: Adv Data)
