The measurement ofSHBGis used in the investigation ofhirsutism. When combined with a testosterone test, thefree testosteroneindex (orfree androgen index) can be calculated (seebelow). This is particularly useful when the total testosterone concentration is normal but the SHBG is low, resulting in ...

Participants who scored within the depression range were 2.17 (95% CI, 1.71-2.74) times less likely to consent to blood tests, and men who did not have a blood test had a higher weighted Charlson index than those who did (z = 6.01; P < .001). Another 149 participants were later ...
In turn, no differences were apparent in male CLL cases notwithstanding similar circulating concentrations of MeO-CE. This may reflect sex differences in the metabolic enzymes involved in the conversion of androgen to estrogen and their subsequent biotransformation to MeO-CE by catechol-O-...
