Endocrine and Metabolic Abnormalities in Adolescents with a PCOS-like Condition: Consequences for Adult Reproduction

Apter, Dan·1998·Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism

Abstract

The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has a perimenarcheal onset. Increased luteinizing hormone (LH) and androgen concentrations are common among anovulatory adolescents and some also have hyperinsulinemia. Many will later have normal ovulatory cycles, whereas others with several co-existing abnormalities will develop full-blown PCOS with menstrual cycle irregularities and infertility in adulthood.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
