“…In one of the initial studies, Hogervorst and colleagues (2001) reported significantly reduced serum levels of testosterone from men with AD in comparison to age-matched, non-demented men. In subsequent studies by this group, both total (Hogervorst et al, 2004;Hogervorst et al, 2003;Lehmann et al, 2004) and free (Hogervorst et al, 2002) testosterone levels were found to be significantly lower in men without AD irrespective of potentially confounding such indices as age, education, body mass index, smoking, alcohol use, diabetes, and hormone therapy. Similar findings of low testosterone in men with AD have been reported in several (Almeida et al, 2004;Moffat et al, 2004;Paoletti et al, 2004;Rasmuson et al, 2002;Watanabe et al, 2004) but not all (Pennanen et al, 2004) studies.…”
