Sexual dimorphism in relationships between of plasma bilirubin and some neuro-endocrine parameters
Background. Earlier we found that plasma uric acid, urea and creatinine causes modulating effects on neuro-endocrine parameters, as well as anxiety, but these effects are significantly different in men and women of different ages.
