Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion are the key complications of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The incidences of insulin resistance syndrome (IRS), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetes mellitus have been clearly shown to be race-related, thus the association between polycystic ovary syndrome and insulin resistance was race-related.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the correlation of insulin resistance with body mass index (BMI), blood lipids and plasma glucose in Tibetan patients with PCOS.DESIGN: A prospective study based on Tibetan population.SETTING: Department of Cardiology, General Hospital of Chinese PLA; Second Department of Internal Medicine,General Hospital of Tibetan Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-six Tibetan PCOS patients, aged 25-42 years with a mean age of (32±5) years were selected from the Second Department of Internal Medicine and Department of Gynecology, General Hospital of Tibetan Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. Another 36 female inpatients were selected as the controls (control group), aged 24-35 years with a mean age of (30±5) years.METHODS: The disease histories were collected and general conditions were recorded. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT, 75 g) was conducted for all the subjects. All the subjects werefasted for 12 hours to collect venous blood samples to detect the levels of hormone, fasting insulin, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Ovary was detected with echocardiography. The insulin resistance index was calculated by the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) was calculated by the formula:fasting insulin (mlU/L)×FPG (mmol/L)/22.5. The blood pressure, BMI and levels of blood lipids, plasma glucose and insulin were compared between the PCOS group and control group.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Blood pressure, BMI and levels of blood lipids, plasma glucose and insulin were observed in both groups.RESULTS: All the 36 PCOS patients and 36 controls were involved in the analysis of final results. ① The BMI, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in the PCOS group were higher than those in the control group (t =3.426 5,2.448 4, 2.212 5, P < 0.05-0.01). ② The levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-C in the PCOS group were higher than those in the control group (t=2.104 9, t =2.304 7, 2.400 0, P< 0.05-0.01), whereas the level of HDL-C was lower that in the control group (t =4.800 0, P< 0.01). ③ The levels of fasting insulin and 2-hour plasma glucose and HOM in the PCOS group were higher than those in the control group (t =7.809 5, 12.365 0, 2.789 9, P< 0.01).CONCLUSION: Tibetan PCOS patients present a clustering of atherosclerotic risk factors, including obesity, adverse lipid profile, hypertension, hyperglycemia, etc.
