An association of high carbonate with increased bone fragility is consistent with a higher carbonate:mineral ratio in bone specimens from women with postmenopausal osteoporosis33 and with greater fracture susceptibility34. High mineral:matrix ratio has also been reported in other brittle bone conditions,...
To date, there is only sparse information about the regulation of androstenedione, testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) concentrations in women with severe major depression. Therefore, 11 pre- and postmenopausal, severely depressed, hypercortisolemic women (Hamilton Depression Scale, 31.3±5.9; age...
