title: [Androgen metabolism in men with diabetes mellitus type II depending on sensitivity to insulin and androgens].
abstract: The article presents data on 17-ketosteroid excretion in patients with diabetes mellitus types II depending on age, sex and degree of diabetes mellitus compensation. It was established that 17-ketosteroid excretion and their fractions are considerably increased in men with diabetes mellitus types II in comparison with a control group and it is more evident in patients with insulin resistant diabetes mellitus. Obtained results showed possibility of the participation of changed steroid metabolism in pathogenesis of androgen disorders in aged male patients with diabetes mellitus types II depending on insulin sensitivity.
