简要总结

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate, in obese and hypogonadal patients eligible for bariatric surgery, the effect of testosterone replacement therapy in improving lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) assessed using the IPSS (International Prostate Symptom Score) questionnaire, compared to hypogonadal untreated subjects and eugonadal subjects.

详细描述

Primary objective:

  • Evaluation in obese and hypogonadal patients candidates for bariatric surgery of the effect of testosterone replacement therapy in improving the symptoms of LUTS (assessed using the IPSS questionnaire) compared to hypogonadal untreated subjects and eugonadal subjects.

Secondary objectives:

  • Evaluation of the effect of testosterone in obese and hypogonadal patients candidates for bariatric surgery in improving metabolic parameters (glycaemia, oral glucose tolerance test, HbA1c, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, arterial pressure, BMI, waist circumference) compared to hypogonadal untreated subjects and eugonadal subjects
  • Evaluation of the effect of testosterone in obese and hypogonadal patients candidates for bariatric surgery in improving uroflowmetric parameters compared to hypogonadal untreated subjects and eugonadal subjects
  • Evaluation of the effect of testosterone in obese and hypogonadal patients candidates for bariatric surgery on the ultrasound characteristics of the prostate (macro-calcifications, intraprostatic arterial velocity, volume of the prostate gland).
  • Evaluation of the effect of testosterone in obese and hypogonadal patients candidates for bariatric surgery on pre-adipocytes isolated from visceral adipose tissue samples collected during surgical procedures, as compared to hypogonadal untreated subjects and eugonadal subjects.

结局指标

主要结局

IPSS score (LUTS) improvement

时间窗: 1 yr after surgery

For each patient the presence of an improvement of LUTS, assessed by IPSS score, will be evaluated by calculating the difference between the scores of the IPSS questionnaire administered at V1 compared to that administered to V0, V2 as compared to V1, or V3 as compared to V2. The mean of this change will be then compared between different groups (eugonadal; untreated hypogonadal; treated hypogonadal)

次要结局

  • Change in the number of prostatic macrocalcifications(1 yr after surgery)
  • Change in the peak of arterial velocity at the colour-doppler ultrasound of the prostate(1 yr after surgery)
  • Improvement of sexual function(1 yr after surgery)
  • Improvement of symptoms of hypogonadism(1 yr after surgery)
  • Preadipocyte dysfunction assessed in preadipocyte isolated from visceral adipose tissue obtained during bariatric surgery(1 yr after surgery)
  • Variations in histomorphometric and molecular parameters of hepatic tissue obtained during bariatric surgery(1 yr after surgery)
  • Presence of Metabolic Syndrome(1 yr after surgery)
  • Volumetric change of the prostate(1 yr after surgery)
