RESUMO

Las determinaciones plasmáticas de testosterona son fundamentales para el diagnóstico de las distintas causas de hipogonadismo, incluido el hipogonadismo de inicio tardío. Existen dificultades para interpretar los resultados de las concentraciones de testosterona debido a los cambios que se presentan con la edad y por la variabilidad de los distintos métodos utilizados. Objetivos Estudiar los rangos de normalidad de testosterona en varones jóvenes sanos y comparar los resultados de los distintos métodos analíticos utilizados.Material y métodosSe incluyeron 20 hombres sanos con una edad media de 24,5 años (desviación estándar (DE): 5,04), un índice de masa corporal (IMC) medio de 23,8% (DE: 3,3). Se determinaron las concentraciones de testosterona total (TT) mediante inmunoquimioluminiscencia (ICLA), de testosterona libre (TL) mediante radioinmunoensayo (RIA), y se calculó la testosterona libre calculada (TLc) y la testosterona biodisponible (TB) mediante la fórmula de Vermeulen. Se midieron las concentraciones séricas de lutropina (LH), folitropina (FSH) y proteína ligadora de hormonas sexuales (SHBG) por método inmunorradiométrico (IRMA).Resultados Las concentraciones medias de TT fueron de 20nmol/l (DE 4,96), las de TL de 0,054nmol/l (DE 0,01), los de TLc de 0,3834nmol/l (DE 0,09) y los de TB de 9,9nmol/l (DE: 2,8 ). No se encontró correlación entre las concentraciones de testosterona medidos por los distintos métodos, excepto entre TL y TLc (r=0,662; p<0,003) y entre TLc y TB (r=0,979; p<0,0001). Existe una asociación inversa entre IMC y las concentraciones de testosterona total (r: −0,52; p<0,017).Conclusiones Es necesario establecer el intervalo de normalidad para la testosterona en hombres jóvenes sanos en función del método analítico utilizado (AU)

RESUMO

UNLABELLED: Plasma testosterone concentrations are essential for the diagnosis of several causes of hypogonadism, including late-onset hypogonadism. Defining the normal range for testosterone concentrations poses certain difficulties due to the changes that occur with age and the variability of the different analytical methods used. OBJECTIVES: To study normal ranges of testosterone in healthy young men and to compare the results of distinct analytical methods. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We recruited 20 healthy men with a mean age of 24.5 years (standard deviation (SD): 5.04) and a mean body mass index (BMI) of 23.8% (SD: 3.3). Total testosterone (TT) was measured by immunochemiluminescence (ICLA) and free testosterone (FT) by radioimmunoassay (RIA). Calculated free testosterone (FTc) and bioavailable testosterone (BT) were calculated using Vermeulen's formula. Serum lutropin (LH), follitropin (FSH) and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were measured by immunoradiometric assays (IRMA). RESULTS: The mean concentrations were 20 nmol/l (SD: 4.96) for TT, 0.054 nmol/L (SD: 0.01) for FT, 0.3834 nmol/L (SD: 0.09) for FTc and 9.9 nmol/L (SD: 2.8) for BT. There was no correlation between testosterone measured by different methods other than an association between FT and FTc (r=0.662, p<0.003) and between FTc and BT (r=0.979, p<0.0001). An inverse correlation was found between BMI and TT concentrations (r: -0.52, p<0.017). CONCLUSIONS: The normal range for testosterone in healthy young men should be established in each laboratory based on the analytical method used.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The hypothesis that diabetes mellitus presentation partially depends on the genetic characteristics of the patient has been proposed. Up to date this kind of studies have been made by serology, so there are no data about the role played by DQ haplotypes in the presentation and clinical importance of DM1. This fact is analysed in the present study. PATIENTS AND METHOD: We studied DQ haplotypes (molecular biology) in 86 patients affected by DM1. Their relationship with several parameters found on illness debut, such as age, sex, C peptid and clinical importance are analysed. RESULTS: 89% of the patients showed a DQ that increases the risk of diabetes. Average age on onset was 16 years and the median age 9 years. No differences in relation to sex were observed. DQA1*0501, 0301/DQB1*0201, 0302 heterocygotes show an earlier onset (9 years, opposite to 17 in the rest) and the youngest (smaller than 16 years) they have to the onset a smaller pancreatic reservation (peptid C of 0.37 ng/dl in front of 1.4 of those bigger than this age). CONCLUSIONS: DQA1*0501, 0301/DQB1*0201 heterocygocity increases the probability of an earlier and more aggressive debut of the illness, being related this characteristic younger debut to a smaller pancreatic reservation.

RESUMO

FUNDAMENTO Y OBJETIVO: Se plantea la hipótesis de que la presentación de la diabetes mellitus tipo 1A (DM1) depende en parte de las características genéticas del paciente, ya que determinan la forma de inicio. Analizamos si los haplotipos HLA DQA-DQB son determinantes en la aparición de DM1 y su gravedad, ya que hasta el momento no hay una definición clara en este sentido. PACIENTES Y MÉTODO: Se realizó el estudio de los haplotipos HLA DQA-DQB por técnicas de biología molecular a 86 pacientes con DM1 y se relacionó con distintos parámetros hallados en el inicio de la enfermedad, como edad, sexo, péptido C y gravedad clínica. RESULTADOS: El 89 per cent de los pacientes presentó al menos un haplotipo DQ de riesgo diabetogénico. La edad media de inicio de la enfermedad fue de 16 años, aunque la edad de máxima frecuencia está en los 9 años. No se apreciaron diferencias en función del sexo. Los pacientes heterocigotos DQA1*0501,0301/DQB1*0201,0302 presentaron una mayor precocidad en la aparición de la diabetes (9, frente a los 17 años en el resto), y los más jóvenes (los menores de 16 años) presentaron al inicio una menor reserva pancreática (péptido C de 0,37 frente a 1,4 ng/dl de los mayores de dicha edad). CONCLUSIONES: La heterocigosis HLA DQA1*0501,0301/DQB1*0201,0302 se asocia a una presentación temprana de la DM1, que se relaciona con una menor reserva pancreática (AU)
