INTRODUCTION Sex hormones have been implicated in the etiology of a number of diseases. To better understand disease etiology and the mechanisms of disease-risk factor associations, this analysis aimed to investigate the associations of anthropometric, sociodemographic and behavioural factors with a range of circulating sex hormones and sex hormone-binding globulin. METHODS Statistical analys...
OBJECTIVE Compare levels of androgens and bone mineral density (BMD) of ovariectomized (OVX) and non-ovariectomized (NOVX) postmenopausal women. Forty women, 20 OVX and 20 NOVX, (53.9 +/- 4 years) were selected. METHODS Total testosterone (TT), free testosterone (FT), androstenedione (AN), dehidroepiandrostenedione (DHEA) and its sulfate (DHEA-S) were measured. BMD was measured in 14 OVX and ...
STUDY QUESTION Is exposure to perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) associated with testicular function (reproductive hormone levels and semen quality) in healthy men? SUMMARY ANSWER PFOS levels were significantly negatively associated with serum testosterone (total and calculated free), but not with any other reproductive hormones or semen quality. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY In animals, some PFCs hav...
Objective: The aim was to assess the effect of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on erectile function.Patients and Methods: This study included 40 patients hemodialysis (HD), medical treatment [predialysis (PD)], 20 controls. They were assessed using international index function questionnaire andlaboratory investigations (blood urea, serum creatinine, both total free testosterone).Results: mean age ...
OBJECTIVE The evaluation of serum sex steroids and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels in postmenopausal women with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and their association to the disease severity. DESIGN Twenty-two postmenopausal women with biopsy-proven NAFLD and 18 matched controls were recruited. Blood samples for serum SHBG, total testosterone, estradiol levels and standard ...
background: objective: this study was conducted to determine the effect of omega-3 supplementation on sex hormone-binding protein (shbg), testosterone, free androgen index (fai) and menstrual status in women with pcos. materials and methods: this double-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted on 78 overweight/obese women with pcos. participants were randomized to receive omega-3 (3gr/...
CONTEXT The prevalence of frailty increases, whereas testosterone decreases, as men age. Low testosterone may be a risk factor for development of this syndrome. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to determine whether testosterone levels are associated with frailty. DESIGN We conducted a prospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Between 2001 and 2004, frailty was assessed in 3616 communi...
BACKGROUND Recent clinical trials have shifted attention away from estrogens and toward androgens and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) as potential mediators of increasing cardiovascular (CV) risk in women at midlife. METHODS AND RESULTS The correlation between reproductive hormones and CV risk factors was evaluated in a multiethnic (white, black, Hispanic, Chinese, and Japanese) sample of...
Muscle mass and strength losses during aging may be associated with declining levels of serum testosterone (T) in men. Few studies have shown a direct relationship between T and muscle mass and strength. Subjects were 262 men, aged 24-90 yr, from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging, who had T and sex hormone-binding globulin sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) measurements, from which the...
Background and Aim: Employees in power plants are exposed to noise due to working with booster pumps, condensers, fans, boilers, steam valves, and other equipment. Noise, as a common detrimental factor, has devastating effects on human health. Today, infertility is one of the problems observed in different societies, and it is possible that noise, as a job stressor, affects fertility factors. T...
