This study developed and validated a high-resolution mass spectrometry method to screen for prohibited substances and analyze six endogenous steroids in urine according to World Antidoping Agency requirements, demonstrating its effectiveness for antidoping analysis.

This study found that finasteride significantly alters urinary steroid profiles, complicating the detection of steroid abuse in doping-control analysis by potentially causing false-negative results.

In this study, adolescents with depressive symptoms were found to have higher urinary excretion rates of certain steroid metabolites, including corticosterone and adrenal hormones, and a specific metabolite ratio was identified as a potential biomarker for distinguishing these patients from healthy controls.

Combination therapy improves urinary flow and reduces residual urine, but needs better stent design.

This study used a newly validated method to find that one-year finasteride treatment resulted in no significant differences in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients and normal controls.
