Abstract

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is probably the most common endocrinopathy of reproductive age. PCOS represents a disorder that not only enhances the risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) but is also associated with an increased number of cardiovascular risk factors known to facilitate atherogenesis. On the other hand, inflammation is thought to play an important role in the progression and development of complications of atherosclerosis. Evidence of low-grade chronic inflammation in PCOS is indicated by the presence of elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, inflammatory cytokines (i.e., IL-6 and IL-18), and increased leucocyte count. CRP, a nonspecific marker of inflammation, has been proven to be one of the strongest predictors of the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with or without cardiovascular disease. The levels of the adhesion molecules (AM), sIVAM-1, sVCAM-1, and sE-selectin in serum reflect low-grade chronic inflammation of the endothelium and independently predict coronary heart disease (CHD) and T2D. In a recent study in a large number of PCOS women we demonstrated elevated levels of sIVAM-1 and sE-selectin and we further substantiated the existence of a low-grade chronic inflammatory process in PCOS. However, it remains to be assessed with long-term studies whether the early presence of markers of chronic inflammation in young women with this syndrome has clinical significance.

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.
