Filter by:The main objective of the present project is to evaluate the relevance of reticulum stress in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), focusing particularly on the underlying mechanisms of insulin resistance, which is the origin of metabolic comorbidities. Furthermore, the investigators will assess the potential of insulin sensitizers as a treatment to control endoplasmic reticulum stress markers in PCOS patients.
The investigators wanted to elucidate the effects of metformin in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) by performing a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled cross-over study.
Evaluation of endometrial preparation using either hormonal therapy or ovarian stimulation prior to frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
The overall objective of this study is to determine whether serum BPA and/or phthalate concentrations differ in fertile versus infertile men and women in Saskatchewan. The investigators will test the following hypothesis: 1. Serum BPA and/or phthalate concentrations will be greater in women with unexplained infertility or PCOS compared to a control group 2. Serum BPA and/or phthalate concentrations will be greater in men with male factor infertility compared to a control group
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Visceral fat area and other criteria assessed during initial screening could predict the response to ovulation induction with clomiphene citrate (CC) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
This research is to investigate the response of vascular active factors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiotensin-Ⅱ (AT-Ⅱ) to ovary stimulation during 24h in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Controled prospective clinical study involved 60 women undergoing in vitro fertilization. Fifty-two patients with PCOS and 8 control cases were stimulated with human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) during the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle (4st to 7th days of the cycle).The blood was sampled before the injection (0 hour) and at the 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours points after the stimulation. VEGF, AT-Ⅱ were measured by radioimmunoassay.
This study investigated any potential associations between two isocaloric diets with different meal frequency (3 meals versus 6 meals) and glycemic control in people at high diabetes risk (lean and overweight/obese women with PCOS, individuals with hyperinsulinemia, individuals with impaired glucose tolerance) and diagnosed with diabetes.
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a major endocrinological disorder affecting 5-8% of reproductive aged women. Anovulation is a major feature of the syndrome, managed primarily by clomiphene citrate. Failure to respond to clomiphene citrate is termed clomiphene resistance and second line treatment is either laparoscopic ovarian drilling or gonadotrophin ovulation induction. Although laparoscopic drilling is effective in restoring ovulation and achieving pregnancy, some women still remain anovulatory and infertile after the procedure. N-acetyl cysteine has emerged as a novel therapeutic adjuvant to laparoscopic drilling to improve ovulation and pregnancy rate.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a syndrome which includes elevated androgen levels, irregular menstrual cycles and insulin resistance. Standard treatments, which include weight loss and medications to improve insulin secretion are only partly successful, and may require that young women take medications for decades. The study investigators have been evaluating the effects of specific diets on insulin resistance in healthy volunteers and subjects with type 2 diabetes, and have found that subjects with insulin resistance seem to respond particularly well to these diet regimens. Volunteers with PCOS are being asked to participate to see if following these diets can help regularize your menstrual cycles. The results of this study may help improve fertility treatments for women with PCOS.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether monotherapy treatment with phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4) inhibitor roflumilast is more effective than treatment with glucagon-like protein 1 (GLP-1) liraglutide or treatment with metformin as monotherapy in the treatment of obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) regarding weight reduction who have not been treated before. The investigators anticipated greater changes in body weight in patients on roflumilast treatment than in liraglutide or metformin.
