Circulating androgen levels and self-reported sexual function in women
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted to determine whether women with low self-reported sexual desire and sexual satisfaction are more likely to have low serum androgen levels than women without self-reported low sexual desire and sexual satisfaction. It is concluded that no single androgen level is predictive of low female sexual function and the majority of women with low dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels did not have low sexual function.

Effect of policosanol on lipid levels among patients with hypercholesterolemia or combined hyperlipidemia
Article Abstract:
A study is presented to determine the lipoprotein-lowering effects of Cuban sugar cane-derived policosanol and to establish, if effective, dose-dependency up to 80 mg/d in patients with hypercholesterolemia or combined hyperlipidemia. It is concluded that the sugar cane-derived policosanol in usual and high doses does not demonstrate a reduction in lipid levels beyond placebo.
