research Estimation of Serum Level of Omentin-1 In Hirsute Female: A Single Center Study
Females with idiopathic hirsutism have higher levels of omentin-1, which may lead to excessive hair growth.
research Does Dietary Fatty Acid, Decanoic Acid, Prevent Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?
Decanoic acid may help treat PCOS by reducing androgen levels and improving glucose sensitivity.
research Ovarian SAHA syndrome is associated with a more insulin-resistant profile and represents an independent risk factor for glucose abnormalities in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A prospective controlled study
Ovarian SAHA syndrome makes women with PCOS more resistant to insulin and increases their risk of blood sugar problems.
research Androgenic alopecia and insulin resistance: are they really related?
There is no significant link between male pattern baldness and insulin resistance.
research The hyperandrogenic-insulin-resistant acanthosis nigricans syndrome: therapeutic response
Most patients improved with oral contraceptives, but some needed additional treatment.
research Nonanal Stimulates Growth Factors via Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) Signaling in Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells
Nonanal from fruits and vegetables promotes hair growth by increasing growth factors.
research Close correlation between hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome—Based on liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry measurements
Women with PCOS who have high male hormone levels often also have insulin resistance.
research Effective amelioration of hepatic inflammation and insulin response in high fat diet-fed rats via regulating AKT/mTOR signaling: Role of Lepidium sativum seed extracts
Lepidium sativum seed extracts helped reduce inflammation and improve insulin response in obese rats on a high-fat diet.
research Plasma Diaphanous Related Formin 1 Levels Are Associated with Altered Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Resistance in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Case Control Study
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have lower levels of a substance called DIAPH1 in their blood, which is linked to changes in sugar metabolism and insulin resistance.
research Effect of a transcriptional inactive or absent vitamin D receptor on beta-cell function and glucose homeostasis in mice
Mice without active or present vitamin D receptors maintain normal blood sugar control and islet gene expression when calcium levels are normal.
research The influence of obesity on Androstenedione to Testosterone ratio in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hyperandrogenemia
Obesity changes androgen levels in women with PCOS, leading to higher testosterone relative to androstenedione.
research Genome-wide shifts in gene expression induced in theca-interstitial cells by inflammatory stimuli
African American women have a higher risk of preterm delivery than Caucasian women, and inflammatory stimuli affect gene expression in cells related to PCOS, showing a heightened inflammatory state in women with PCOS.
research Role of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) in PCOS patient
People with PCOS have higher levels of PAI-1, which may increase their risk of heart disease and fertility issues.
research Revised 2003 consensus on diagnostic criteria and long-term health risks related to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
The 2003 consensus updated PCOS diagnosis criteria and linked PCOS to higher risks of diabetes and heart problems, recommending lifestyle changes to lower these risks.
research Definition criteria and diagnostic assessments
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis and management of PCOS are crucial due to its associated health risks.
research The differences between aromatizable and non-aromatizable androgens in relation to body composition and metabolic syndrome risk factors in men
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone have similar effects on body composition and metabolic health in men.
research Modulation of glucocorticoid action and the treatment of type-2 diabetes
Targeting glucocorticoid action might help treat type-2 diabetes, but human trials are needed.
research Insulin Resistance, Metabolic Syndrome, and Inflammatory Skin Disease
Improving diet and lifestyle can help manage skin conditions linked to insulin resistance and inflammation.
research Lifestyle changes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Lifestyle changes can improve body composition, excess male hormone levels, and insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
research Management of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescence
Early treatment and weight management are important for teenagers with PCOS to reduce symptoms and long-term health risks.
research Acanthosis Nigricans during an HAIR-AN syndrome: "The Tree That Hides the Forest"
The case shows skin changes can indicate deeper health issues like insulin resistance, which are challenging to manage.
research Hormonal contraceptives: pharmacology tailored to women's health
New hormonal contraceptives are safer, have fewer side effects, and offer health benefits for women.
research Clinical, hormonal and metabolic parameters in women with PCOS with different combined oral contraceptives (containing chlormadinone acetate versus drospirenone)
Both types of oral contraceptives improved symptoms and hormone levels in women with PCOS.
research Dimorphic regulation of the MafB gene by sex steroids in hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus)
Sex steroids affect the MafB gene differently in male and female hamsters.
research IL6 is correlated with metabolic syndrome parameters in oral lichen planus
IL6 is linked to higher risk of heart disease in people with a certain mouth condition.
