Resumen
Los niveles de testosterona normales-altos se asocian con un mayor riesgo de hombro congelado (capsulitis adhesiva). Este estudio sugiere que el estado hormonal es importante para evaluar el riesgo de hombro congelado.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Endocrinología
- Ortopedia
- Epidemiología
Sus antecedentes:
- La capsulitis adhesiva (hombro congelado) implica dolor en el hombro y movimiento restringido.
- Se implican factores endocrinos, particularmente la testosterona, en su desarrollo.
- El vínculo entre la testosterona endógena y la capsulitis adhesiva requiere una mayor investigación.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Evaluar la asociación entre los niveles séricos de testosterona y el riesgo de desarrollar capsulitis adhesiva.
- Evaluar este riesgo durante períodos de 1, 2 y 5 años.
- Investigar el papel de la terapia de reemplazo de testosterona (TRT) en esta asociación.
Principales métodos:
- Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo utilizando la base de datos TriNetX (2005-2025).
- Se incluyeron hombres de 35 años o más con niveles de testosterona registrados y sin cirugía previa de hombro.
- Se estratificó a los pacientes en grupos de testosterona baja (<300 ng/dL) y normal-alta (300-1000 ng/dL).
Principales resultados:
- Los niveles de testosterona normales-altos se correlacionaron con un riesgo significativamente mayor de capsulitis adhesiva a los 1, 2 y 5 años (RR 1.12-1.23).
- Esta asociación se mantuvo constante al excluir a los pacientes en TRT.
- Entre los pacientes en TRT, el riesgo seElevó a los 5 años, pero no a los 1 o 2 años.
Conclusiones:
- Los niveles de testosterona endógena normal-altos se asocian con un mayor riesgo de capsulitis adhesiva.
- El estado hormonal debe considerarse en la evaluación del riesgo de capsulitis adhesiva.
- Se necesitan más estudios prospectivos para confirmar estos hallazgos.

Sign Test for Matched Pairs
437
The sign test for matched pairs offers a robust method for comparing two paired samples, often for the effects of an intervention in one of them. This method is very useful in situations where the underlying distribution of the data is unknown. The test compares two related samples—often pre- and post-treatment measurements on the same subjects—to determine if there are significant differences in their median values.
To conduct the sign test, we first calculate the differences in...

Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test for Matched Pairs
513
The Wilcoxon signed-rank test for matched pairs evaluates the null hypothesis by combining the ranks of differences with their signs. It essentially tests whether the median of the differences in a population of matched pairs is zero. Since the test incorporates more information than the sign test, it generally yields more trustable conclusions. This test also does not require the data to follow a normal distribution, but two conditions must be met for it to be applicable: (1) the data must...

Relative Risk
2.3K
Relative risk (RR) is a statistical measure commonly used in epidemiology to compare the likelihood of a particular event occurring between two groups. This metric is important for evaluating the relationship between exposure to a specific risk factor and the probability of a particular outcome. It plays a crucial role in medical research, public health studies, and risk assessment. Relative risk quantifies how much more (or less) likely an event is to occur in an exposed group compared to an...

Odds Ratio
1.9K
The odds ratio (OR) is a statistical measure used extensively in epidemiology and research to quantify the strength of association between exposure and outcome across different groups. Unlike relative risk, which compares the probabilities of an event occurring, the odds ratio compares the odds of an event occurring in the exposed group to the odds of it occurring in the unexposed group. The odds, in this context, are calculated as the probability of the event happening divided by the...
