Abstract:

Objective To investigate the changes of clinical laboratory determination indicators in male androgenic alopecia(MAA) patients,and to provide new clues for the diagnosis and treatment of MAA.Methods A total of 52 clinical laboratory determination indicators of thyroid-related markers,tumor markers,biochemical indicators,immune indicators and blood viscosity were determined in 430 MAA patients and 617 healthy subjects(healthy control group). The results of the 2 groups were analyzed comparatively.Results The level of insulin(INS)was(10.49±0.86)μU/ mL,the level of free prostate-specific antigen(f-PSA) was(0.45±0.03)μg/L,the ratio of f-PSA/total prostate-specific antigen(t-PSA) was 0.31±0.02,the level of apolipoprotein E(apo E) was(1.12±0.01)g/L,and the whole blood viscosity:middle cut(50/s) was 7.40±0.04,which were higher than those in healthy control group(P<0.05,P<0.01). There was no statistical significance for the other indicators between the 2 groups(P>0.05).Conclusions Some clinical laboratory determination indicators have changes in MAA patients,which may have correlations with metabolic syndrome(MS).
