HeartWire (10/4, Nainggolan) reports that "elderly men in the highest quartile of serum testosterone levels have around a 30% lower risk of cardiovascular events over five years compared with men in the lower three quartiles," according to a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Investigators found that "the association remains even after adjustment for traditional cardiovascular risk factors and excluding those with CVD at baseline."
