Prospective Echocardiographic Assessment of Androgenic-Anabolic Steroids Effects On Cardiac Structure and Function in Strength Athletes. by Waleed El-Hawarry is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study investigated the effects of short-term androgenic-anabolic steroid (AAS) use on cardiac structure and function in experienced male strength athletes. Two studies were conducted - one where athletes self-administered AAS for up to 16 weeks, and another where athletes were randomly assigned to receive nandrolone decanoate or placebo for 8 weeks. Echocardiography assessments found that short-term AAS use of up to 16 weeks did not result in detectable changes to heart morphology, systolic or diastoli
