Evolving utility of sex hormone-binding globulin measurements in clinical medicine
Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) regulates the plasma levels and biological actions of the sex steroids: testosterone and estradiol. Advances in our understanding of how plasma SHBG levels are determined, and how SHBG functions, have provided insight into how SHBG should be used to assess the actions of its sex-steroid ligands, and as a biomarker of metabolic and endocrine abnormalities. RECENT FINDINGS: Plasma SHBG levels fluctuate throughout life in response to the changes in metabolic and physiologic states, and are altered by natural hormones and synthetic steroids. Interindividual differences in plasma SHBG levels and activity are also influenced by polymorphisms within the structural and regulatory regions of the SHBG gene. SUMMARY: Measurements of SHBG are widely used to predict plasma free testosterone levels in patients suffering from excess androgen exposures, but have broader utility in assessing the risk for endocrine diseases and clinical sequelae of the metabolic syndrome, namely, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. It is anticipated that new genetic and functional data regarding SHBG will reveal whether SHBG is simply a biomarker of these diseases or participants in their cause.

In the citing paper
“The apparent contradiction that low testosterone levels are associated with insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome in men when the association is with high testosterone levels in women is the result of the decrease in SHBG and its consequent effect on the assessment of testosterone in each sex [81].”

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.
