Prediction of testosterone deficiency using different screening indexes in adult American men: An NHANES cross-sectional study
We found that these indexses are tightly associated with testosterone levels in U.S. adult men. Moreover, the TyG-WHtR index demonstrates the most effective predictive performance in the population. However, more well-designed studies are still needed to validate their association.
