Sex differences in systemic metabolites at four life stages: cohort study with repeated metabolomics

Abstract Background Males experience higher rates of coronary heart disease (CHD) than females, but the circulating traits underpinning this difference are poorly understood. We examined sex differences in systemic metabolites measured at four life stages, spanning childhood to middle adulthood. Met...
