Journal ArticleDOI

The timing of normal puberty and the age limits of sexual precocity: variations around the world, secular trends, and changes after migration

TL;DR: These observations urge further study of the onset of puberty as a possible sensitive and early marker of the interactions between environmental conditions and genetic susceptibility that can influence physiological and pathological processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serum insulin-like growth factor I in 1030 healthy children, adolescents and adults ; relation to age, sex, stage of puberty, testicular size and body mass index

TL;DR: There was a significant variation in serum IGF-I levels with age within a given Tanner stage of puberty in addition to the well known increase with increasing age or pubertal stage, which cannot be separated into simple additive components when studying 1030 children in a cross-sectional design.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma Leptin Levels in Healthy Children and Adolescents: Dependence on Body Mass Index, Body Fat Mass, Gender, Pubertal Stage, and Testosterone

TL;DR: In this paper, a specific and sensitive RIA was developed that allowed the accurate measurement of low leptin levels in young lean children, and leptin proved to be a comparatively stable protein under common conditions of blood sampling and storage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low Serum Insulin-Like Growth Factor I Is Associated With Increased Risk of Ischemic Heart Disease A Population-Based Case-Control Study

TL;DR: Individuals without IHD but with low circulating IGF-I levels and high IGFBP-3 levels have significantly increased risk of developing IHD during a 15-year follow-up period, suggesting that IGF- I may be involved in the pathogenesis of IHD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Male Reproductive Disorders and Fertility Trends: Influences of Environment and Genetic Susceptibility

TL;DR: There is an urgent need to prioritize research in reproductive physiology and pathophysiology, particularly in highly industrialized countries facing decreasing populations, because environmental exposures arising from modern lifestyle, rather than genetics, are the most important factors in the observed trends.
