Causal association of sex hormone-related traits with Alzheimer’s disease: a multivariable and network Mendelian randomization analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
BackgroundAlthough studies have demonstrated a correlation between sex hormone-related traits [such as sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and testosterone] and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), the link remains uncertain due to the intricacies of AD pathology ...

Higher Serum Testosterone Protects Against the Development of Type 2 Diabetes in Middle‐Aged but Not Older Men

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 8, Page 6959-6964, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Low serum testosterone concentration has been reported to be causally linked to the risk of Type 2 diabetes (T2D). The benefit of T2D protection has been demonstrated to continue up to serum testosterone concentrations of 461 ng/dL (16 nmol/L).

Short‐Term Combined Treatment With Tirzepatide and Metformin for Overweight/Obese Chinese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Prospective, Open‐Label, Randomised Controlled Trial

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 8, Page 7380-7392, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims This study aimed to assess the effects of low‐dose tirzepatide combined with metformin (COM) versus metformin (MET) monotherapy in overweight/obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Materials and Methods Sixty overweight/obese women with PCOS were randomised to the MET group (1000 mg twice daily [BID]) or the COM group (MET ...

Investigating the Mediating Role of Cardiometabolic Traits in the Causal Link Between SHBG Levels and Stroke Risk via Network Mendelian Randomization

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
The causal nature of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in the pathogenesis of stroke remains uncertain. We explored whether SHBG levels are causally associated with stroke via cardiometabolic traits.

[Changes of SHBG concentrations in postmenopausal women].

open access: yesGinekologia polska, 2002
Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a serum (serous) glycoprotein binding estrogens and androgens with high affinity. Hepatic synthesis of SHBG and serous protein concentration are related to the following factors: age, sex steroids and thyroid hormones concentrations, obesity.

Salivary estradiol and progesterone across the menstrual cycle: Association and agreement with serum concentrations

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 15, August 2026.
Abstract Saliva provides a noninvasive alternative to serum for serial sampling of estradiol and progesterone. This study examined salivary estradiol and progesterone patterns and the relationship between salivary and serum estradiol, progesterone, and the estradiol to progesterone ratio (E2:P) across the menstrual cycle (MC) in physically active ...

Intermittent exogenous ketosis increases erythropoietin in healthy adults: A randomized, placebo‐controlled study with preliminary sex‐specific observations

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 15, August 2026.
Intermittent exogenous ketosis stimulates erythropoietin, with greater EPO response and elevated ferritin in females but no significant changes in circulating hemoglobin or red blood cell count at 2 weeks. Abstract Exogenous ketosis may stimulate erythropoietin (EPO), yet its impact on erythropoiesis, iron metabolism, and potential sex‐specific ...

Assessing the causal relationship between frailty and sex hormone-binding globulin or insulin-like growth factor-1 levels: A sex-stratified bidirectional Mendelian Randomization study

open access: yesExperimental Gerontology
Background: The association between frailty and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) or insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) levels demonstrates sex differences with inconsistent conclusions.
