Abstract excerpt

Background: Previous studies have suggested associations between testosterone, genetic factors, and a series of complex diseases, but the associations with the lifespan phenotype, such as health span, remain unclear. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, we analyzed 145,481 men and 147,733 women aged 38-73 years old from UK Biobank (UKB) to investigate the sex-specific associations of total testosterone...
