Two markers in predicting the cardiovascular events in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome: increased P-wave and QT dispersion.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent disease with many potential long-term cardiovascular risks. P-wave dispersion (Pdis) and QT dispersion (QTdis) have been shown to be noninvasive electrocardiographic predictors for development of cardiac arrhythmias. In this study we aimed to search Pdis and QTdis parameters in patients with PCOS. PATIENTS AND METHODS:The study included 82 patients with PCOS and 74 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Baseline 12-lead electrocardiographic and transthoracic echocardiographic measurements were evaluated. P-wave maximum duration (Pmax), P-wave minimum duration (Pmin), Pdis, QT interval, heart rate-corrected QT dispersion and QTdis were calculated by two cardiologists. RESULTS:Patients wirh PCOS had significantly higher QT dispersion (49.5 ± 14.1 vs. 37.9 ± 12.6 ms, p < 0.001), and P wave dispersion (54.2 ± 11.4 vs. 45.9 ± 10.1 ms, p < 0.001) than the controls. Serum testosterone and estradiol levels was correlated with the Pdis (r = 0.677, p < 0.001 and r = 0.415, p < 0.001 respectively) and QTdis (r = 0.326, p < 0.001 and r = 0.321, p < 0.001 respectively). CONCLUSIONS:Pdis and QTdis are simple and useful electrocardiographic markers which may be used in the prediction of the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in PCOS patients.
