Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST bWbFR0xP. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The previously proven association between androgenetic, alopecia and serious cardiovascular events raises a question of the common pathogenetic mechanism of these disorders. Our practice-based case-control study In men aged 19-50 years showed a strikingly Increased risk of hyperinsulinaemia and Insulin-resistance-associated disorders such as obesity, hypertension, and dislipidaemia In men with early onset of alopecia (<35), compared with age-matched controls. This finding supports the hypothesis that early androgenetic alopecia could be a clinical marker of Insulin resistance.
