Inverse association between serum insulin and sex hormone-binding globulin in a population survey in Sweden
OBJECTIVES Obesity is associated with low levels of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). While the reason is not fully understood, we aimed to study the association between serum insulin and levels of SHBG in a random population. DESIGN AND METHODS Between 2001 and 2005, a random sample of 2816 participants aged 30-74 years were enrolled in a cross-sectional survey in the South-west of Sweden...
متن کاملAssociation of Testosterone and Sex Hormone–Binding Globulin With Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance in Men
OBJECTIVE We sought to assess the associations of testosterones and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) with metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance in men. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We defined metabolic syndrome according to the National Cholesterol Education Program Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults.

متن کاملCorrelation of Serum Lipoprotein Ratios with Insulin Resistance in Infertile Women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Case Control Study
Objective Dyslipidemia and insulin resistance (IR), occurring in most infertile women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to assess the relationships between lipoprotein ratios and IR in PCOS women. MaterialsAndMethods Thirty six infertile women with PCOS selected based on Androgen Excess Society (AES) ...
متن کاملSpecific binding of human corticosteroid-binding globulin to cell membranes.
Specific binding sites for corticosteroid-binding globulin were detected on membranes prepared from human prostates. The binding sites are typical of membrane receptors: they are saturable and specific and have high affinity. There was little specific binding at 4 degrees C and 23 degrees C. Maximal specific binding was obtained at 37 degrees C. Scatchard analysis revealed the presence of a sin...
متن کاملEffects of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome on serum aminotransferase levels and insulin resistance
Abstract Bckground: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are at risk of developing the fatty liver as a result of being overweight. Several studies suggest that OSA per se could be a risk factor for liver injury and ischemic hepatitis with OSA. The OSA is an independent risk factor for Insulin resistance. Therefore, we investigated liver enzymes and insulin resistance in patients with O...
