Abstract
A randomised double blind study was carried out with 50 men who had ST segmentdepression of 0.1 mV or more after a modified twostep exercise test. Rate and duration of exercise were the same for the last of each subjects several pretreatment tests as for his tests after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment with placeboor testosterone cypionate, 200 mg, intramuscularly weekly. The sum of ST segment depression in leads II, V4, V5, and V6 taken immediately, and 2, 4, and 6 minutes after exercise did not change significantly after 4 or 8 weeks of placebo treatment, but did decrease by 32 per cent and 51 per cent after 4 and8 weeks, respectively, of testosterone cypionate treatment. The mechanism by which testosterone cypionate treatment results in lessened postexercise ST segment depression is not established. Verf.-Referat
