Cortisol and GH secretory dynamics, and their interrelationships, in health aged women and men

We studied 130 healthy aged women (n=57) and men (n=73), age 64-88 yr, with age-related reductions in insulin-like growth factor I and gonadal steroid evels to assess the interrelationships between cortisol and growth hormone (GH) secretion and whether these relationships differ by sex.
