Empathising and systemising in adults with and without Asperger syndrome
- Journal of Autism & Developmental Disorders
, 2004
"... An experiment was devised to test the empathising–systemising (E–S) theory of autism. Three groups of participants took part in the study: males with Asperger Syndrome (AS) (n 18), males without AS, (n 44) and females from the general population (n 45). Each participant completed two tasks: one t ..."

that involved empathising and another that involved systemising. On the empathising task, females scored significantly higher than con-trol males who in turn scored higher than males with AS. Conversely, females scored signif-icantly lower than both male groups on the systemising task, who did not differ
Neuroendocrine aspects of male reproduction
- Biol. Reprod
, 1969
"... In two recent articles the neuroendocrine control of male reproduction was reviewed (25) and relevant findings from this labora-tory were reported (26). It is the purpose of this paper to describe more fully some of our recent experiments as well as to review briefly some developments in a few speci ..."

As “neuroendocrine processes ” we designate all mechanisms involving interactions between the endocrine system and either the peripheral or central nervous system. The involvement of the peripheral nervous system in the con-trol of male reproduction
Influence of Genetically Sterile Males on Fecundity of
"... Genetically-sterile male Norway rats from the Stanley-Gumbreck colony were tested for their effects on fecundity of caged and large-pen populations of Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus). In the cage studies when equal numbers of sterileand laboratory males were placed with females, there was a reductio ..."

47 and 66 percent reduction, and 1:3 ratio caused a 83 and 70 per-cent reduction. We concluded that these sterile males offer possibilities as a tool in biological con-trol programs for limiting wild rat populations.
Effects of L-Arginine on the Reproductive System of Male Rabbits
"... L-arginine is an amino acid, which serves as the sole substrate for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis with the concomitant formation of L-citrulline in biologic system. NO has been demonstrated to be involved in smooth muscle relax-ation and vasodilation, immune regulation and neurotransmission. It also h ..."

in the seminal plasma. Twelve sexually matured male rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) were randomly divided into four groups with three rabbits each, which were con-trol, low, medium, and high concentration groups. The treatment groups were force-fed with 100mg/kg, 200mg/kg, and 300mg/kg body weight of L
ACID ON REPRODUCTION OF WHITE LEGHORN MALES Abstract approved Redacted for Privacy
"... Two lots of six White Leghorn male chickens were fed diets con-taining 7. 3 % linoleic acid and either. 075 % ethoxyquin (lot 1) or 32. 4 mg/kg of added vitamin E (lot II) for 47 weeks both of which were designated as positive controls. A third group (lot III) containing 30 males received the same l ..."

Mediterranean fever gene mutation analysis in infertile Turkish males
, 2009
"... ABSTRACT. Male infertility is a common barrier that prevents successful conception. There have been reports of azoospermia in men with familial Mediterranean fever, some of whom had not been treated with colchicine. Variation in this disorder could be a risk factor for amyloidosis associ-ated with a ..."

To our knowledge, this is the first study to determine the frequency of Mediterranean fever gene mutations in infertile male and the infertility
Hyperleptinemia without Obesity in Male Mice Lacking Androgen Receptor in Adipose Tissue
"... Insulin resistance occurs through an inadequate response to insulin by insulin target organs such as liver, muscle, and adipose tissuewith consequent insufficient glucoseuptake. In previous studies we demonstrated that whole body androgen receptor (AR) knockout (AR/y) mice develop obesity and ex-hib ..."

-hibit insulin and leptin resistance at advanced age. By exam-ining adipose tissue-specific AR knockout (A-AR/y) mice, we found A-AR/y mice were hyperleptinemic but showed no lep-tin resistance, although body weight and adiposity index of A-AR/y mice were identical with those of male wild-type con-trol mice
Role of Seminal Plasma in Heat Stress Infertility of Broiler Breeder Males1,2
"... ABSTRACT The present research was undertaken to determine the role of seminal plasma in heat stress (HS) infertility. Males were exposed to HS at 32 C or main-tained at 21 C as controls. Centrifugation and reconstitu-tion of semen samples created four final treatments: con-trol sperm + control plasm ..."

Infertility and Testicular Atrophy in the Antiestrogen-Treated Adult Male Rat1
"... The estrogen receptor-a (ERa) knockout mouse (aERKO) lacks ERa throughout development; therefore, an adult model for the study of estrogen effects in male mice was recently de-veloped using the antiestrogen ICI 182,780. However, differenc-es between species have been noted during immunostaining for ..."

using ICI 182,780 for 100–150 days. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated weekly with s.c. injections of ICI 182,780 (10 mg) or castor oil (as con-trol). The effects of ICI included testicular atrophy and infertility, similar to terminal effects in the aERKO male. Additionally, ICI induced dilations
Effects of Testosterone Replacement on Lower Urinary Tract Functions in Elderly Male Rats

In order to shed light on the efficacy of testosterone on the functions, we replaced teststerone in elderl ..."

in elderly male Wistar rats aged 19 months. A relevant dose (120 mg) of testosterone was subcutaneously replaced through an implanted silastic tube into 6 rats for 4 weeks (treated group). Another 6 rats received no treatment for 4 weeks (con-trol group). After the end of the 4-week period, we measured
