Metabolic syndrome and the risk of cardiovascular complications in young patients with different phenotypes of polycystic ovary syndrome.

Abstract：

PURPOSE:Insulin resistance is an important factor in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which is associated with higher risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and cardiovascular complications. Early atherosclerotic lesions may be diagnosed by ultrasonographic parameters: brachial artery flow-mediated dilation after reactive hyperaemia (FMD) and intima-media thickness of common carotid artery (IMT). The aim of the study was to assess the relation of IMT and FMD with clinical and laboratory parameters reflecting metabolic status in young women with different PCOS phenotypes. METHODS:The study included 154 PCOS patients diagnosed with the Rotterdam criteria, divided into four phenotypes, and 113 healthy women. Laboratory analyses, transvaginal ultrasound, and IMT and FMD measurements were conducted. MetS was diagnosed with International Diabetes Federation/American Heart Association (IDF/AHA) consensus criteria. RESULTS:MetS was more prevalent in PCOS patients than healthy women (14.29 vs. 5.31%; p = 0.019), with highest prevalence in phenotypes I and II (p = 0.039). IMT and FMD did not differ between PCOS patients and the controls, nor between the PCOS phenotypes. PCOS patients with MetS presented lower FMD than other PCOS patients (p = 0.018). In women with PCOS, FMD correlated with glucose and insulin concentrations in the fasting state (R = -0.33, p = 0.002; R = -0.23, p = 0.026) and at 2 h of OGTT (R = -0.29, p = 0.006; R = -0.26, p = 0.014). In patients with phenotype I, correlations were found between IMT and BMI (R = 0.45, p = 0.006) and between FMD and fasting glucose concentrations (R = -0.46, p = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS:Metabolic disturbances and the diagnosis of MetS in patients with PCOS, especially in hyperandrogenic phenotypes, might be associated with alterations in IMT and FMD.
