| Popis: | Background and objective: Women with polycystic ovary syndrome serve as a model to estimate the functions of insulin resistance and chronic hyperinsulinemia on serum level of insulin resistance markers. This study aimed to determine the association of the serum visfatin, resistin levels with insulin resistance in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome, and its correlations with various parameters. Methods: This case-control study was performed at the College of Pharmacy, Hawler Medical University in the period between May 2017 and July 2018. It included 100 patients and 100 age matched healthy control group was also enrolled for comparing purposes. Results: Patients had significantly elevated serum visfatin ( 2.46 vs. 1.08 ng/ml), resistin (3.87 vs. 2.46ng/ml), and insulin (17.22 vs. 8.1 µlU/ml) levels than controls. They also had significant elevations in insulin resistance (2.41 vs. 1.92) and β insulin function (94.45 vs. 86.98). There was no significant variation in insulin sensitivity (88.77 vs. 92.08). Conclusion: There was an association between resistin, visfatin, and polycystic ovary syndrome-related insulin resistance. Many recent proteins are now considered as potential new markers of insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome. There was a strong connection between visfatin and resistin with insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome pathophysiology. |
