Addition of Progesterone Leads to Increased Breast Growth for Transgender Women The addition of the hormone progesterone to gender-affirming hormone therapy leads to increased breast growth for transgender people following feminising hormone therapy. This is demonstrated by an Amsterdam UMC-led trial among 90 participants and these results are presented today at the European Professional Association for Transgender Health (EPATH) annual congress in Hamburg.

Concerns about independence of US guidelines for treatment of childhood obesity The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is not transparent about the creation of its guideline for childhood obesity medication. The scientific substantiation appears to be limited, and the AAP appears to have financial ties with pharmaceutical companies that produce this medication, which were not mentioned in the guidelines. This is the conclusion of researchers from Amsterdam UMC, VU Amsterdam, the University of California and the University of Colorado, which is published today.

International research into local healthcare solutions in Kenya, Ghana and Uganda Building primary care for the chronically ill together with local stakeholders, so that this care fits seamlessly with the environment. That is the idea behind M-CARE, a five-year international research project in Kenya, Ghana and Uganda that starts today, thanks to a Horizon Grant worth four million euros. Project leader Charles Agyemang: "Healthcare providers, patients, administrators: we want to hear all those voices, so that we know exactly what is going on."

Video consultations are faster, cheaper and more sustainable for patients A video consultation between patient and surgeon is just as good as a physical visit to the outpatient clinic to discuss a major operation. This is evident from research by Amsterdam UMC, demonstrated that a video consultation is just as good as a physical consultation in terms of information uptake. Alongside this finding, patients save an average of two hours of travel time and waiting time per consultation, incur no costs for travel and parking, and reduce their ecological footprint. The CO₂ emissions of a video consultation are 99 percent lower than those of a physical hospital visit. The results were published today in The Lancet Digital Health.
