risk than obesity. This cross-sectional study of 106 healthy premenopausal African-American (AA) women compared the midfollicular phase sex hormone and sex hormone-binding globulin levels in upper body fat (UBF) and lower body fat (LBF) phenotype and obese and nonobese women. Multivariate regression analyses were used to control for various confounders, including dietary factors. UBF phenotype women had 37% (P = 0.02), 50% (P = 0.01), 52% (P = 0.007), and 50% (P = 0.009) higher levels of estradiol (E2), free E2, testosterone (T), and free T, respectively, than LBF phenotype women. Only %free T was higher in obese than in nonobese women (P = 0.02). The levels of E2, free E2, %free E2, T, and free T were higher [by 42% (P = 0.01), 68% (P = 0.001), 18% (P = 0.04), 36% (P = 0.04), and 61% (P = 0.01), respectively] and the level of sex hormone-binding globulin was lower [by 28% (P = 0.04)] in obese UBF than in nonobese LBF phenotype women. These findings support the hypothesis that body fat distribution may be a better marker of a hormonal pattern associated with increased breast cancer risk than obesity. Obese UBF phenotype AA women, in particular, have a high-risk hormonal profile. Future breast cancer studies might consider controlling for measures of obesity and body fat distribution to minimize confounding. </p> </div> </div> <p class="disclaimer" id="disclaimer"> <a href="/disclaimer/" target="_blank" ga_category="literature_resources" ga_action="disclaimer_link" ga_label="under_abstract">PubMed Disclaimer</a> </p> <div class="similar-articles" id="similar"> <h2 class="title"> Similar articles </h2> <ul class="articles-list" id="similar-articles-list"> <li class="full-docsum"> <div class="docsum-content" style="display:inline;"> <a class="docsum-title" href="/8827014/" ref="article_id=8827014&linksrc=similar_articles_link&ordinalpos=1" data-ga-category="similar_article" data-ga-action="8827014" data-ga-label=""> Hormone levels during dietary changes in premenopausal African-American women. </a> <div class="docsum-citation full-citation"> <span class="docsum-authors full-authors">Woods MN, Barnett JB, Spiegelman D, Trail N, Hertzmark E, Longcope C, Gorbach SL.</span> <span class="docsum-authors short-authors">Woods MN, et al.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation full-journal-citation">J Natl Cancer Inst. 1996 Oct 2;88(19):1369-74. doi: 10.1093/jnci/88.19.1369.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation short-journal-citation">J Natl Cancer Inst. 1996.</span> <span class="citation-part">PMID: <span class="docsum-pmid">8827014</span></span> </div> </div> </li> <li class="full-docsum"> <div class="docsum-content" style="display:inline;"> <a class="docsum-title" href="/28071011/" ref="article_id=28071011&linksrc=similar_articles_link&ordinalpos=2" data-ga-category="similar_article" data-ga-action="28071011" data-ga-label=""> The effects of a low-calorie diet or an isocaloric diet combined with metformin on sex hormones In obese women of child-bearing age. </a> <div class="docsum-citation full-citation"> <span class="docsum-authors full-authors">Swora-Cwynar E, Kujawska-Łuczak M, Suliburska J, Reguła J, Kargulewicz A, Kręgielska-Narożna M, Marcinkowska E, Kanikowska A, Bielas M, Grzymisławski M, Bogdański P.</span> <span class="docsum-authors short-authors">Swora-Cwynar E, et al.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation full-journal-citation">Acta Sci Pol Technol Aliment. 2016 Apr-Jun;15(2):213-220. doi: 10.17306/J.AFS.2016.2.21.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation short-journal-citation">Acta Sci Pol Technol Aliment. 2016.</span> <span class="citation-part">PMID: <span class="docsum-pmid">28071011</span></span> <span class="publication-type spaced-citation-item citation-part">Clinical Trial.</span> </div> </div> </li> <li class="full-docsum"> <div class="docsum-content" style="display:inline;"> <a class="docsum-title" href="/31610152/" ref="article_id=31610152&linksrc=similar_articles_link&ordinalpos=3" data-ga-category="similar_article" data-ga-action="31610152" data-ga-label=""> Racial differences in body composition and cardiometabolic risk during the menopause transition: a prospective, observational cohort study. </a> <div class="docsum-citation full-citation"> <span class="docsum-authors full-authors">Marlatt KL, Redman LM, Beyl RA, Smith SR, Champagne CM, Yi F, Lovejoy JC.</span> <span class="docsum-authors short-authors">Marlatt KL, et al.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation full-journal-citation">Am J Obstet Gynecol. 2020 Apr;222(4):365.e1-365.e18. doi: 10.1016/j.ajog.2019.09.051.
