Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease is a Strong Predictor of Hypogonadism and is Associated with Decreased Lean Tissue Mass.

Conclusion: Decreased eGFR and decreased LTI are predictors of hypogonadism associated with CKD. The study results suggest that hypogonadism screening should be carried out when eGFR deceases below 30 mL/min/1.73 m2. PMID: 33192085 [PubMed]
