Issue: 
DOI:

Pages:

Synopsis: 
Sex hormone-binding globulin gene polymorphisms are associated with higher risk of Type 2 diabetes mellitus in Egyptian men, through lowering circulating levels of sex hormone-binding globulin and consequently lowering testosterone and elevating oestradiol levels, which may be linked to insulin resistance.
