Profiles of endogenous circulating cortisol and bone mineral density in healthy elderly men.
Exogenous glucocorticoids are known to increase the risk of osteoporosis. However, the contribution made by endogenous circulating cortisol concentrations to adult skeletal status remains unknown. We examined this issue in a sample of 34 healthy men, aged 61-72 yr. Venous blood samples were obtained...
