Insulin-Lowering Agents in the Management of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Open accessAbstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a medical condition that has brought multiple specialists together.Gynecologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists, pediatricians, and dermatologists are all concerned with PCOS patients and share research data and design clinical trials to learn more about the syndrome.Insulin resistance is a common feature of PCOS and is more marked in obese women, suggesting that PCOS and obesity have a synergistic effect on the magnitude of the insulin disorder.Hyperinsulinemia associated with insulin resistance has been causally linked to all features of the syndrome, such as hyperandrogenism, reproductive disorders, acne, hirsutism, and meta-bolic disturbances.Women with PCOS should be evaluated for cardiovascular risk factors, such as lipid profile and blood pressure.Modification of diet and lifestyle should be suggested to those who are obese.Several insulin-lowering agents have been tested in the management of PCOS.In particular, metformin is the only drug currently in widespread clinical use for treatment of PCOS.In a high percentage of patients, treatment with metformin is followed by regularization of menstrual cycle, reduction in hyperandrogenism and in cardiovascular risk factors, and improvement in response to therapies for induction of ovulation.(Endocrine Reviews 24: 633-667, 2003) I.

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.
