Introduction: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is associated with increased risk of several systemic diseases and some environmental factors, however, controversies exist. Since AGA and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) share common pathogenesis and AGA manifests some decades before BPH onset, it may serve as an early marker of BPH.Objective: This study was conducted to know AGA and its association with BPH in men ≥20 years of age.Materials and Methods: Clinically diagnosed cases of AGA (n=176) and 117 age matched healthy controls were enrolled. All cases and controls were subjected for abdomino-pelvic ultrasonography, urinary flowmetry, fasting lipid profiles, glycemic index and body mass index. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) was also assessed.Results: Among 176 patients, 120 (68.18%) had Hamilton-Norwood grade III AGA and 56 (31.82%) had grade IV-VII AGA. In both groups, 140 (79.55%) cases and 93 (79.49%) controls were aged <35 years respectively. Family history of AGA was present in 108 (61.36%) cases and 2 (1.71%) controls. This observation was statistically significant with OR= 89.61 (95%CI 23.67-339.29). Three (1.7%) cases and none of the controls had prostate volume >30ml. Seventeen(9.66%) cases and 4 (3.42%) controls were graded as moderately/severely symptomatic IPSS. Statistically significant association was seen between family history and early onset of hair loss (<35 years) in a male sibling or parent.Conclusion: Although positive family history was associated with early onset of AGA, no association between AGA and BPH could be elicited in our study.

Abstract Background In recent years, the prevalence rate of ACS in Chinese young women has been increasing significantly, becoming the main cause of death in young female. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics and difference of risk factors in Chinese young women with ACS and to provide references for ACS prevention and treatment. Methods A 1:1 case-control study was conducted to evaluate risk factors of 415 young female patients with ACS (ACS group) who underwent PCI treatment and 415 young female cases without ACS (control group) who were hospitalized and confirmed by coronary angiography to exclude coronary heart disease from January 2010 to August 2016. The average age of the cases in the two groups was respectively (40.77±4.02) years-old and (40.57±4.01) years-old (P> 0.05). Results The risk factors in ACS group were overweight (64.10%), hypertension (49.88%), hyperlipidemia (35.66%), diabetes (23.37%), depression or anxiety disorder (16.62%), gynecological diseases (16.39%), Hyperuricemia (15.18%), family history of early onset coronary heart disease (14.94%), hyperhomocysteinemia (11.33%), hypothyroidism(14.96%), hypercholesterolemia (8.43%) and high c-reactive protein (7.47%), and were statistically significant difference (P<0.01) compared with that of control group. The average number of risk factors per case in ACS group was significantly more than that of control groups (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in the number of combined risk factors of the overweight cases compared between two groups (P<0.01). Regression analysis showed that hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocysteinemia, overweight（obesity）, high CRP, hypertension, hypothyroidism, gynecological diseases, depression or anxiety, cardiac insufficiency, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, oral contraceptives, family history of early onset CHD, and autoimmune diseases were independent risk factors (P<0.01). The bivariate correlation analysis between CRP level and age was r= -0.158 (P<0.01). This result showed the younger ACS patient is the higher serum CRP. Conclusion The independent risk factors of ACS in young women are hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocysteinemia, overweight, high CRP, hypertension, hypothyroidism, gynecological diseases, depression or anxiety, cardiac insufficiency, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, oral contraceptives, family history of early onset CHD, and autoimmune diseases. The co-existence of multiple risk factors is the main cause suffering from ACS in young women.

Abstract Background To date, the contribution of BRCA1/2 mutations in Moroccan early onset breast cancer patients remains unknown. Here we assess these genetic alterations for the first time in a cohort from North of Morocco. Methods Thirty-three patients diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of ≤40 years were recruited irrespective of breast and/or ovarian cancer family history. Coding regions and intron-exon boundaries of BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes were sequenced from peripheral blood DNA using Ion Proton (Thermo Fisher Scientific) next generation sequencing platform. Results Overall, five BRCA germline mutations were identified (15.1%). The frequency of mutations among patients with family history of breast cancer was 16.7%. Three mutations were found in BRCA1 (9%) and two within the BRCA2 gene (6%). These are three frameshift mutations (c.798_799del, c.2125_2126insA, c.5116_5119delAATA), one missense (c.116G > A) and one nonsense mutation (c.289G > T). The mutation c.5116_5119delAATA has a founder effect in North Africa. Moreover, one variant of unknown significance was identified in BRCA2 (c.4090A > G). Most BRCA mutations carriers (80%) had no family history of breast cancer. Conclusion Our data do not support the hypothesis that BRCA mutations alone explain the higher frequency of breast cancer in Moroccan young women. The young age (≤40 years) for breast cancer diagnosis seems to be strongly predictive of BRCA mutation status in Moroccan patients. These results will help in decision making with regard to genetic counseling and testing in the national scale.

Abstract Background The data on prevalence and clinical relevance of TP53 germline mutations in early onset Middle-Eastern breast cancer (BC) is limited. Methods We determined TP53 germline mutations in a cohort of 464 early onset BC patients from Saudi Arabia using capture sequencing based next generation sequencing. Results Germline TP53 pathogenic mutations were found in 1.5% (7/464) of early onset Saudi BC patients. A total of six pathogenic missense mutations, one stop gain mutation and two variants of uncertain significance (VUS) were detected in our cohort. No TP53 pathogenic mutations were detected among 463 healthy controls. TP53 mutations carriers were significantly more likely to have bilateral breast cancer (p = 0.0008). At median follow-up of 41 months, TP53 mutations were an unfavorable factor for overall survival in univariate analysis. All the patients carrying TP53 mutations were negative for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. Majority of patients (85.7%; 6/7) carrying TP53 mutation had no family history suggestive of Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) or personal history of multiple LFS related tumors. Only one patient had a positive family history suggestive of LFS. Conclusions TP53 germline mutation screening detects a clinically meaningful risk of early onset BC from this ethnicity and should be considered in all early onset BC regardless of the family history of cancer, especially in young patients that are negative for BRCA mutations.
