Description
Ljiljana Fodor Duric and co-authors study, in twenty twenty-four, a blood protein as a marker in men with fatty liver disease tied to metabolism. The protein, called SHBG, carries sex hormones in the blood. Fatty liver links to insulin resistance, where the body responds poorly to insulin, and to type two diabetes. The team compared ninety-eight men with the disease, aged thirty to fifty-five, with seventy-four healthy men. All had liver scans and fasting blood tests.
Men with fatty liver had lower SHBG than controls. Weight and age shaped SHBG levels. In younger men, higher weight linked to lower SHBG. In older men, SHBG held steady no matter the weight. The authors test SHBG as a clue to hormone and metabolic state.
