Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators aimed to investigate hepassocin levels in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). There are 3 groups aged between 18 and 35 years as non-obese healthy women, non-obese women with PCOS, and obese women (BMI\>30) with PCOS.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hepassocin, also known as Fibrinogen-like-protein or hepatocyte-derived fibrinogen-related protein 1, is a new marker for obesity and insulin resistance. In hepatic injury, it protects liver cells and promotes regeneration. High levels of hepassocin was shown to be independently associated with HOMA-IR and diabetes. Since insulin resistance is known to be seen in patients with PCOS, it may be expected that hepassocin levels may be higher in this group of patients.

Non-obese PCOS

2003 Rotterdam ESHRE/ASRM PCOS Consensus Criteria were used to diagnose PCOS that fulfilled at least two of the followings: chronic oligo-anovulation, clinic or biochemical hyperandrogenism and presence of polycyctic ovary by ultrasound (Rotterdam). Oligo-anovulation is defined as periods lasting more than 35 days and/or amenorrhea. Clinic or biochemical hyperandrogenism is defined as the presence of acnes and/ or Ferriman-Galleway modified score \>8 and/ or hyperandrogenemia defining the testosterone level \> 0.6 ng/ml (2 nmol/l) and/or dehydroepiandrosterone level \> 3 ng/ml (10.5 nmol/l). Polycyctic ovaries are defined as the presence of more than 12 follicules 2-9 mm in diameters or ovarian volume \>10 cm3 under transvaginal or abdominal ultrasound. non-obese group are the women BMI \< 30 between age of 18 and 35.
