Abstract
High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were measured in five elite weight-trained athletes who were intermittently taking anabolic-androgenic steroids and in 28 age- and sex-matched control subjects who had never taken anabolic-androgenic steroids. Athletes had significantly lower levels of HDL-C while taking steroids than while abstaining (p<0.1). Athletes also had significantly lower HDL-C levels while using steroids than the control subjects (p<.001). Total cholesterol levels for the athletes remained unchanged throughout the study and were similar to control subject levels (p>.05). Verf.-Referat
