SHBG and type 2 diabetes mellitus: A multivariate analysis revealed the independent association of increased SHBG levels with lower LVEF values among T2DM patients (ß = −0.542, p < 0.0001), whereas in the same group higher total testosterone was an independent predictor of higher LVEF (ß = 0.531, p < 0.0001) and lower LVDD (ß = −0.442, p = 0.0002) levels.
