Popis: This preliminary study concerns the evaluation of a chemometric technique, the so called Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) for an adequate nosological characterization of the more common forms of hirsutism: i.e., the Micropolycystic Ovary Syndrome (MPCO) and the Idiopathic Hirsutism (I.H.). The obtained data and, particularly, the evidence of statistically significant values of the Linear Discriminant Function (mean = 12.7; p less than 0.02), clearly show the effectiveness of LDA as a practical and suitable method for a more proper detection and classification of MPCO and I.H.
