Improved prediction of all-cause mortality by a combination of serum total testosterone and insulin-like growth factor I in adult men

Improved prediction of all-cause mortality by a combination of serum total testosterone and insulin-like growth factor I in adult men

Objective: Lower levels of anabolic hormones in older age are well documented. Several studies suggested that low insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) or testosterone levels were related to increased mortality.
