Abstract:
Objective To investigate the detection and significance of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and inhibin B (INHB) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods This study randomly selected 240 PCOS patients from January to October 2018 in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University, and 240 healthy women who were admitted to the physical examination center of Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University as control group during the same period. Retrospective study was adopted. Serum samples of patients were collected and the serum estradiol (E2), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone (T), sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), AMH and INHB were detected. The data were analyzed by single sample Kolmogorov-Smimov test, independent sample T test and logistic regression analysis. Results The detection values of AMH, INHB, E2, LH, FSH, T, SHBG and INHB/AMH in PCOS group were (8.55±3.17) ng/ml, (101.7±15.2) pg/ml, (63± 50) pg/ml, (13.0±5.8) mIU/ml, (6.5±1.5) mIU/ml, (0.68±0.23) ng/ml, (62±52) nmol/ml and (24.03±26.35) respectively. In the control group, the detection values of AMH, INHB, E2, LH, FSH, T, SHBG, INHB and AMH were (4.34±2.07) ng/ml, (83.3±7.7) pg/ml, (66±25) pg/ml, (7.1±3.7) mIU/ml, (7.2±1.9) mIU/ml, (0.40± 0.11) ng/ml, (67±37) nmol/ml and (42.83±62.22). The detection values of AMH, INHB, LH, T and SHBG in PCOS group were higher than those in control group (the t values were 9.843, 7.373, 9.021, 9.349 and 3.867), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The detection values of E2 and FSH in PCOS group were lower than those in control group(the t values were 0.762 and -1.342), with no significant difference (P>0.05). The INHB/AMH value was lower than that in control group(the t value was -2.332), and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The area under the curve of AMH, INHB and AMH+INHB in the diagnosis of PCOS was 0.762, 0.677 and 0.789, respectively. The cut-off value of AMH in predicting polycystic ovary syndrome was 6.96 ng/mL, the sensitivity was 61.0％, and the specificity was 82.1％. The cut-off value of INHB in predicting polycystic ovary syndrome was 94.9 pg/mL, with a sensitivity of 59.0％ and a specificity of 74.1％. The sensitivity and specificity of combined detection of AMH and INHB in predicting polycystic ovary syndrome were 83.6％ and 60.6％. The positive rates of ultrasound, T, AMH and INHB in PCOS group were 51.25％, 61.25％, 69.58％ and 66.25％, respectively. Conclusion The combined detection of AMH and INHB may improve the sensitivity and specificity of PCOS diagnosis, and its serum level is stable.
