Hypoxia inducible factor-1α gene polymorphisms in Korean patients with pre-eclampsia.

abstract：PURPOSE:The diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is based on a combination of various clinical phenotypes in each patient. However, insulin resistance (IR) and dysmetabolism are not included in the diagnostic criteria of PCOS. Therefore, the definition of PCOS is controversial. The objective of this study is t...
