SCUBE Proteins in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (IPSOS)
Sponsor: Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS
Summary
This study investigates circulating levels of SCUBE-1 and SCUBE-3 proteins in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) compared with healthy controls. Differences between normoinsulinemic and hyperinsulinemic PCOS subgroups will be evaluated, as well as correlations with clinical and metabolic parameters related to inflammation and cardiovascular risk.
Official title: Study of Scube-1 and Scube-3 in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Their Possible Use as Inflammatory Markers and as a Link Between PCOS and Cardiovascular Events.
