Abstract
Serum sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), transferrin, prealbumin, retinol-binding protein, and ceruloplasmin concentrations were evaluated in 12 women with anorexia nervosa before and after weight gain and in 12 healthy women with normal weight. The serum SHBG concentrations were higher in patients with anorexia nervosa before weight gain than in control subjects and they returned to the normal range after weight gain. The changes of SHBG concentrations were not associated with any change in plasma testosterone, estradiol, or free thyroxin concentrations. The body mass index in our patients after weight gain was lower than in control subjects. Prealbumin, retinol-binding protein, ceruloplasmin, and transferrin in anorectic patients before weight gain did not differ from those of the control subjects and increased after weight gain. The changes of serum SHBG concentrations in patients with anorexia nervosa during weight gain make SHBG determination a reliable index of nutritional status in this type of eating disorder.

In female patients with anorexia nervosa, SHBG concentrations were lower compared to normal weight subjects and increased to normal range after adequate weight gain, thus being a reliable index of nutritional status.
“In contrast, in female patients with anorexia nervosa, SHBG concentrations were lower compared to normal weight subjects and increased to normal range after adequate weight gain, thus being a reliable index of nutritional status [93].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
