Association between the prevalence rates of circadian syndrome and testosterone deficiency in US males: data from NHANES (2011-2016).

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The objective of this study is to explore the association between the prevalence rates of circadian syndrome (CircS) and testosterone deficiency (TD).

Materials and methods

Cross-sectional analysis was conducted on the basis of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2016. The target population was males aged ≥20 years old. A total of three multivariable logistic regression models were built to elucidate the association between the prevalence rates of CircS and TD.

Sensitivity analyses were also conducted to verify the stability of the results with extreme values removed.

Results

A total of 3,436 eligible participants were i
