Prompted by evidence from animal studies that castration produces lymphocytosis associated with thymic hyperplasia, this paper has reviewed serial lymphocyte levels in patients with prostate cancer undergoing hormone treatment. On day 7, 5 of 12 patients (58%) showed diminished circulating lymphocyte levels (compared to day 0) reflecting the surge of testosterone after treatment with LHRH analogues, while on day 28 a reversal had occurred and 13 of 17 (77%) had increased lymphocytes (compared to day 0). Possible relevance of these observations to defining a subgroup of patients with hormone-sensitive cancer who might benefit from immunotherapy is discussed.

The present article explores the sexuality in ancient Egypt. In particular in this article are presented the ways of concubinage (marriage, concubinage, adultery), the incest, loves of the pharaohs and of the common people, the freedom of choice in garments, the status of the hetairas and of the whores, the sexual perversions (male and female homosexuality, necrophilia, sodomism, bestiality, rape, masturbation, exhibitionism), the operations of the genitals (circumcision, excision, castration) and finally the level of knowledge in gynaecology, fertility, contraception and obstetrics that even today demands our admiration.
