research Effect of metformin by employing 2-hour postload insulin for measuring insulin resistance in Taiwanese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin improved insulin resistance and BMI in overweight Taiwanese women with PCOS, and a 2-hour insulin test may be a good screening tool.
research Insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction and the relationship with cardio-metabolic disorders among women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS have more insulin resistance and are more likely to have heart-related health issues, with insulin resistance being a bigger factor than β-cell problems.
research Does insulin resistance increase thyroid volume in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome?
Insulin resistance is linked to larger thyroid volume in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The association of androgenetic alopecia and insulin resistance is independent of hyperandrogenemia: A case-control study
Hair loss is linked to insulin resistance in women, regardless of hormone levels.
research Surprisingly low infertility rate in married type 2 diabetic women: A rather curious paradox to the current opinion of insulin resistance as the joint pathogenesis of poly cystic ovary syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus
Married women with type 2 diabetes had a surprisingly low infertility rate, suggesting type 2 diabetes and PCOS may be different conditions.
research Retinol-binding protein 4, leptin, and insulin resistance in idiopathic hirsutism and hirsute women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with idiopathic hirsutism and PCOS have higher RBP4 levels, and PCOS is linked to greater insulin resistance; weight management may help both conditions.
research Cutaneous Clues to Metabolic Dysfunction: Dermatological Manifestations of Diabetes and Insulin Resistance in Clinical Practice
Skin conditions can signal diabetes and insulin resistance.
research Differential plasma proteome analysis reveals key proteins associated with insulin resistance in acne vulgaris patients
C4BPA protein may link acne severity and insulin resistance.
research Association Between Insulin Resistance and Hyperandrogenism in Women with PCOS. A Cross-Sectional Clinical Study
Insulin resistance is strongly linked to higher androgen levels in women with PCOS.
research Unravelling the link between insulin resistance and androgen excess
AKR1C3 could be a treatment target for metabolic issues in PCOS.
research Acanthosis nigricans, insulin resistance and cutaneous virilism
Patients with acanthosis nigricans often have insulin resistance and signs of increased male hormones, but treatment targeting these male hormones is generally ineffective.
research Androgenetic alopecia and insulin resistance: are they truly associated?
No true link between AGA and insulin resistance, but coexistence may worsen AGA.
research Higher PDCD4 expression is associated with obesity, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and granulosa cell apoptosis in polycystic ovary syndrome
More PDCD4 is linked to obesity, insulin problems, and cell death in ovaries for those with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research UHPLC/Q-TOFMS-based plasma metabolomics of polycystic ovary syndrome patients with and without insulin resistance
The research found different metabolism changes in PCOS patients and suggested new potential markers for diagnosing PCOS with or without insulin resistance.
research Androgenic alopecia and insulin resistance: are they really related?
There is no significant link between male pattern baldness and insulin resistance.
research Increased frequency of the DI genotype of the angiotensin-I converting enzyme and association of the II genotype with insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
The study suggests certain ACE gene variations are more common in women with PCOS and may be linked to increased insulin resistance.
research Hyperandrogenism-Insulin Resistance-Acanthosis Nigricans Syndrome
The document concludes that HAIR-AN syndrome should be considered when a patient shows severe hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance after excluding tumors.
research Hyperandrogenism insulin resistance-acanthosis nigricans syndrome in a female adolescent with migraine: A case report
Early diagnosis and treatment of endocrine disorders like HAIR-AN syndrome can improve outcomes in adolescents.
research Insulin resistance, nitric oxide, and fibrinogen levels in white hirsute women: Defining a new paradigm based on translational research
White hirsute women with PCOS have higher insulin resistance, but similar nitric oxide and fibrinogen levels compared to those with idiopathic hirsutism.
research Role of Insulin Resistance in Males with Early Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with early hair loss may have higher insulin resistance and should be checked for related health issues.
research A Clinical Approach to Severe Insulin Resistance
Severe insulin resistance can be managed with medication, lifestyle changes, and treatment for related conditions.
research Type A insulin resistance syndrome due to a novel heterozygous c.3486_3503del (p. Arg1163_Ala1168del) INSR gene mutation in an adolescent girl and her mother
A new gene mutation causes insulin resistance in a girl and her mother.
research Syndromes of Severe Insulin Resistance (SSIRs)
The document concludes that Syndromes of Severe Insulin Resistance are rare disorders with limited treatment options.
research Correlation of Hair Mineral Concentrations with Insulin Resistance in Korean Males
Higher hair calcium to magnesium ratios and lower chromium levels in hair may indicate insulin resistance in Korean men.
research The Effects of the Ethanol Extract of Allium Ascalonicum L. in High-Fat-High-Fructose-Induced Insulin Resistance Swiss-Webster Male Mice
Allium ascalonicum L. extract may help improve insulin resistance.
research INSULIN-LOWERING MEDICATIONS IN POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Insulin-lowering medications show promise for PCOS symptoms but can't be the main treatment yet due to limited long-term research.
research Changes in Prolactin and Insulin Resistance in PCOS Patients Undergoing Metformin Treatment: A Retrospective Study
Lower baseline prolactin levels may lead to better insulin resistance improvement with metformin in PCOS patients.
research Does finasteride, as well as metformin, improve insulin resistance in PCOS?
Both finasteride and metformin effectively treat PCOS by reducing hormone levels and insulin resistance.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and insulin-resistant hyperinsulinemia
