Abstract
Introduction: Men have higher prevalence and mortality of coronary heart disease (CHD) than women. Sex differences in associations of testosterone (T) and sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG) with CHD risk have been recognized. But mechanisms underlying sex differences in CHD are unknown. Hypothesis: Genetic regulations of T and SHBG may differ by sex; such genetic heterogeneity may contribute to sex differences in CHD. Methods: We carried out a...
