At least part of this increase is thought to result from declining estrogen levels, which results in down-regulation of hepatic LDL receptors [55–57]. Much of the seminal research on dyslipidemia and CHD has involved middle-aged men, among whom a 2 to 3% increase in the risk of CHD has...
Objectives: The study was carried out to observe the association of serum estrogen with total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) levels in postmenopausal women. Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, during the period of...
This may be because estrogen can exert an antioxidant effect and play a protective role in cognitive function in SCZ [51, 52]. Thus, we speculate that lower levels of bilirubin in male SCZ patients with cognitive impairment may be the result of a relative lack of antioxidants or oxidative ...
Estrogen has a dramatic effect on musculoskeletal function. Estrogen is known for its relationship with bone, however it directly affects the structure and function of other musculoskeletal tissues such as muscle, tendon, and ligament. [3] Estrogen is the key regulator of bone metabolism in both m...
This gene encodes the phosphatidylethanolamine n-methyltransferase enzyme (PEMT) that is essential for the endogenous synthesis of choline [56], resulting in a reduced dietary requirement for choline. Beyond estrogen, there are several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that have been found to ...
In females, hypogonadism was defined as being over 13 years old and not yet at Tanner B2, over 14 years old requiring estrogen replacement therapy, or over 15 years old with primary amenorrhea. In males, it was defined as being over 14 years old and not yet at Tanner G2, or over 17...
with regular consumers being 0.5/0.9 kg and 0.4/0.5 kg/m2lighter than non-consumers in males and females, respectively (Fig.2). In addition, higher dairy consumption was related with a smaller height loss, less weight gain and lower BMI increase than in non-consumers, although the differences...

As estrogen deficiency causes a relative increase in leg length compared with sitting height, we hypothesise that lack of estrogen is responsible for the decrease in sitting height/height ratio SDS in girls. Indeed, the decrease in sitting height/height ratio SDS was more pronounced in girls ...
[10,85]. Several investigations conducted on goats [86], rams [87], and stallions [10] found a strong correlation between E2levels and Doppler indices of blood flow in the testicular artery. Estradiol also has a role in regulating the blood flow to the uterus and ovaries in females, and...
