The aim of this study is to determine the levels of apelin in men with MS with or without LOH. Patients and Methods: 99 men are includ...

متن کاملInterrelationships of serum testosterone and free testosterone index with FFM and strength in aging men.
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...
متن کاملTestosterone and metabolic syndrome
Controversies surround the usefulness of identifying patients with the metabolic syndrome (MetS). Many of the components are accepted risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD).
