Longitudinal Metabolic Assessment in PCOS

Sponsor: Karadeniz Technical University

Summary

This prospective observational cohort study aims to evaluate longitudinal changes in metabolic status and cardiopulmonary exercise capacity in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Women aged 18-45 years with classic phenotype A PCOS who have initiated inositol treatment will be included. At baseline, participants will undergo cardiopulmonary exercise testing using the COSMED K5 metabolic system, with assessment of VO₂max/VO₂peak and exercise-related metabolic parameters. Body composition, including body fat percentage, fat-free mass, fat mass, and phase angle, will also be assessed using bioelectrical impedance analysis. The same measurements will be repeated after two months to evaluate longitudinal changes. The primary objective is to quantitatively assess the metabolic response of patients with PCOS during clinical follow-up using cardiopulmonary exercise testing. The secondary objective is to characterize temporal changes in metabolic parameters during the treatment period. One-sentence version: This study aims to evaluate longitudinal changes in cardiopulmonary exercise capacity and metabolic parameters in women with classic phenotype PCOS receiving inositol treatment over a two-month follow-up period using COSMED K5 cardiopulmonary exercise testing and bioelectrical impedance analysis.
