多囊卵巢综合征患者胰岛素抵抗与糖脂代谢及性激素的研究

目的通过高胰岛素正葡萄糖钳夹试验评估多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)患者的胰岛素抵抗,探讨伴胰岛素抵抗PCOS患者糖脂代谢及性激素水平特点。方法将2017年7月至2019年2月就诊于遵义医科大学附属医院内分泌科住院及门诊的73例PCOS患者和体重指数及年龄匹配的27名健康女性行高胰岛素正葡萄糖钳夹试验,根据葡萄糖代谢率、体重指数和稳态模型评估的胰岛素抵抗指数(HOMA-IR)分组,分析PCOS患者糖脂代谢及性激素指标的变化及差异。结果在PCOS组中,糖调节受损者占3.23%(1/31),血脂代谢异常者占9.68%(3/31);而在PCOS合并胰岛素抵抗组中,糖调节受损者占7.14%(3/42),血脂代谢异常者达47.62%(20/42),5例患者被诊断为代谢综合征,占11.90%。相关分析显示,葡萄糖代谢率与体重指数、腰臀比、收缩压、空腹血糖、空腹胰岛素、HOMA-IR、皮质醇、三酰甘油、总胆固醇、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、游离雄激素指数(FAI)和谷氨酰转肽酶(GGT)呈负相关(P<0.05),与高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)呈正相关(P=0.028);HOMA-IR与体重指数、腰臀比、收缩压、空腹血糖、空腹胰岛素、HbA1C、LDL-C呈正相关(P<0.05),与葡萄糖代谢率和HDL-C呈负相关(P<0.05);体重指数与腰臀比、收缩压、空腹血糖、空腹胰岛素、HOMA-IR、三酰甘油和LDL-C呈正相关(P<0.05),与葡萄糖代谢率、HDL-C和性激素结合球蛋白(SHBG)呈负相关(P<0.01)。多元线性逐步回归分析表明,体重指数、总胆固醇、三酰甘油和皮质醇是影响葡萄糖代谢率的重要因素,空腹血糖、空腹胰岛素和收缩压是HOMA-IR的重要影响因素,葡萄糖代谢率、HOMA-IR、HDL-C和SHBG仍然是影响体重指数的重要影响因素。结论FAI、SHBG和皮质醇可能参与到PCOS患者的胰岛素抵抗发生中,存在胰岛素抵抗的PCOS患者更容易发生代谢紊乱。     

Early metabolic derangements in daughters of women with polycystic ovary syndrome

CONTEXT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a familial endocrine-metabolic dysfunction, increasingly recognized in adolescent girls with hyperandrogenism. However, it is difficult to establish whether the metabolic abnormalities described in PCOS are present before the onset of hyperandrogenism. In children, a strong association of adiponectin levels with metabolic parameters of insulin resistance has been described. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to evaluate adiponectin serum concentrations and metabolic parameters in prepubertal and pubertal daughters of women with PCOS to identify girls with increased metabolic risk. DESIGN: Fifty-three prepubertal and 22 pubertal (Tanner stages II-V) daughters of PCOS women (PCOSd) and 32 prepubertal and 17 pubertal daughters of control women (Cd) were studied. In both groups, an oral glucose tolerance test was performed with measurement of glucose and insulin. Adiponectin, leptin, C-reactive protein, SHBG, sex steroids, and lipids were determined in the fasting sample. RESULTS: Both groups had similar chronological ages, body mass index sd score, and Tanner stage distribution. In the prepubertal girls, 2-h insulin was higher (P = 0.023) and adiponectin levels were lower (P = 0.004) in the PCOSd group, compared with the Cd group. In the pubertal girls, triglycerides (P = 0.03), 2-h insulin (P = 0.01), and serum testosterone concentrations were higher (P = 0.012) and SHBG lower (P = 0.009) in PCOSd, compared with Cd, but adiponectin levels were similar in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: Some of the metabolic features of PCOS are present in daughters of PCOS women before the onset of hyperandrogenism. Adiponectin appears to be one of the early markers of metabolic derangement in these girls.     

Metabolic profile in sons of women with polycystic ovary syndrome

CONTEXT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine-metabolic disorder with strong familial aggregation. It has been demonstrated that parents and brothers of PCOS women exhibit insulin resistance and related metabolic defects. However, metabolic phenotypes in sons of PCOS women have not been described. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to assess the metabolic profiles in sons of women with PCOS during different stages of life: early infancy, childhood, and adulthood. DESIGN: Eighty sons of women with PCOS (PCOS(S)) and 56 sons of control women without hyperandrogenism (C(S)), matched for age, were studied. In early infancy, glucose and insulin were determined in the basal sample. In children and adults, a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test was performed with measurements of glucose and insulin. Adiponectin, leptin, C-reactive protein, SHBG, and serum lipids were determined in the basal sample during the three periods. RESULTS: During early infancy, PCOS(S) showed higher weight (P = 0.038) and weight sd score (P = 0.031) than C(S). During childhood, weight (P = 0.003), body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.001), BMI sd score (P < 0.001), waist circumference (P = 0.001), total cholesterol (P = 0.007), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P = 0.022) were higher in PCOS(S) compared with C(S), but after adjusting for BMI, these differences were nonsignificant. During adulthood, PCOS(S) exhibited higher weight (P = 0.022), BMI (P = 0.046), and waist circumference (P = 0.028) than C(S). Fasting insulin (P = 0.030), homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (P = 0.034), total cholesterol (P = 0.043), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P = 0.034), and 2-h insulin (P = 0.006) were also significantly higher and insulin sensitivity index composite significantly lower in PCOS(S) than in C(S) (P = 0.003). After adjusting for BMI, only 2-h insulin and insulin sensitivity index composite remained significantly different. CONCLUSIONS: This study indicates that sons of PCOS women exhibit higher body weight from early infancy. In addition, insulin resistance became evident as the subjects got older, which may place them at risk for the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.     

The metabolic syndrome in young Korean women with polycystic ovary syndrome

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by insulin resistance and consequent hyperinsulinemia. Insulin resistance also plays an important role in the metabolic syndrome (MS). We conducted a cross-sectional study to determine the prevalence of the MS in young Korean women with PCOS and whether it is associated insulin resistance. One hundred and seventeen young women with PCOS (age: 26+/-5, 16-39 years) were evaluated for the frequency of MS according to the modified Adult Treatment Panel III. Total testosterone (T), free T, androstenedione, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were measured, and insulin sensitivity was evaluated by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp technique. The prevalence of MS in women with PCOS was 14.5%, nearly 3.5-fold higher than in age-matched women in Korean urban population (4.3%) [J.-Y. Oh, Y.-A. Sung, Y.S. Hong, E. Barrett-Conner, Prevalence and factor analysis of metabolic syndrome in an urban Korean population, Diabetes Care 27 (2004) 2027-2032]. The most frequently occurring component of MS was low HDL cholesterol (45%), and the least frequent was high fasting serum glucose level (0.9%). PCOS women with MS had significantly higher free T, and lower SHBG compared with those without MS. And women with MS showed significantly lower M-value and higher fasting/post-glucose load insulin levels. M-value was still significantly lower in women with MS even after the adjustment for BMI. MS is frequent in young Korean women with PCOS and it reflects more severe insulin resistance. These results suggest the importance of early and regular screening of metabolic disturbance in even young women with PCOS.     

Prediction of insulin sensitivity in nonobese women with polycystic ovary syndrome

Insulin resistance is a frequent (although not constant) abnormality in both obese and nonobese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). It plays a key role in the predisposition to type 2 diabetes, which is the most important health consequence of the syndrome. Identification of patients with insulin resistance is significant both for follow-up and for therapeutic reasons. The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationships between insulin sensitivity, measured by euglycemic clamp, and both endocrine and metabolic indices and to identify the best model for predicting insulin sensitivity. A total of 41 nonobese women fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for PCOS were enrolled in the study. None of the androgens correlated with the insulin sensitivity index. All clamp parameters correlated with SHBG, triglycerides, and body mass index, although no correlation was found with waist to hip ratio or waist circumference. The close relationship between insulin sensitivity and SHBG was documented by factor analysis and by its presence in all prediction models as the most significant (or even the single) predictor of the insulin sensitivity index. In conclusion: 1) a decreased level of SHBG can be used as a single reliable parameter in the prediction of insulin sensitivity in nonobese women with PCOS; and 2) waist to hip ratio, waist circumference, and androgen concentrations have no predictive value.     

多囊卵巢综合征患者性激素结合球蛋白和总睾酮与胰岛素抵抗的相关性

目的 了解性激素结合球蛋白(SHBG)和总睾酮在预测多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)患者胰岛素抵抗和生殖内分泌以及糖脂代谢紊乱中的作用.方法 选择2004年6月至2006年5月在复旦大学附属妇产科医院就诊的344例PCOS患者为病例组,年龄12～35岁,平均年龄(23±5)岁.选择同期月经规律、基础体温双相的100名妇女作为对照组,比较PCOS患者SHBG和总睾酮与对照组的差异,并用Spearman相关分析法分别分析SHBG和总睾酮与其他指标的相关性,Logistic回归分析胰岛素抵抗的风险因子并做SHBG对胰岛素抵抗的受试者操作特征(ROC)曲线,获得预测胰岛素抵抗的风险值,比较不同水平SHBG患者的糖脂代谢紊乱的程度.结果 PCOS患者SHBG为(114±88)mmol/L,与对照组[(201±106)mmol/L]比较差异有统计学意义(t=-5.60,P<0.01),总睾酮为(2.8±1.0)nmol/L,与对照组[(1.7±0.6)nmol/L]比较差异有统计学意义(t=7.73,P<0.01);SHBG与空腹胰岛素、胰岛素释放试验曲线下面积、口服葡萄糖耐量试验(OGTT)的葡萄糖曲线下面积、胰岛素抵抗指数、甘油三酯和腰围/臀围比呈负相关(r值分别为:-0.30、-0.26、-0.29、-0.19、-0.20、-0.29、-0.22,均P<0.01);总睾酮与空腹胰岛素(r=0.14,P<0.01)、胰岛素释放试验(1、2、3 h的r值分别为0.15、0.12、0.11,均P<0.05)以及相应的曲线下面积(r=0.15,P<0.05)、胰岛素抵抗指数(r=0.11,P<0.05)呈正相关.Logistic回归分析发现SHBG是PCOS患者胰岛素抵抗的独立危险因素(OR=3.741).由ROC曲线得到SHBG预测胰岛素抵抗的大致风险值为88 mmol/L(95%CI为0.668～0.774).在低SHBG(<88 mmol/L)患者中,空腹胰岛素、胰岛素释放试验相应的曲线下面积、胰岛素抵抗指数、空腹血糖、OGTT的葡萄糖曲线下面积与高SHBG(≥88 mmoL/L)患者比较差异有统计学意义(t值分别为-6.45、-5.08、-6.19、-3.16、-3.66,均P<0.01),甘油三酯也高于高SHBG患者(t=-2.06,P<0.05).结论 PCOS患者总睾酮水平高于对照组,SHBG低?     

Retinol-binding protein in nonobese women with polycystic ovary syndrome

Objective Although polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is frequently associated with insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease and various metabolic diseases, the mechanisms linking PCOS to metabolic changes are not fully understood. Retinol‐binding protein (RBP) was recently reported as an adipocytokine that may link insulin resistance and lipid metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential role of RBP in women with PCOS. Research design and methods Fifty women with PCOS and 40 healthy women, all of whom were age‐ and weight‐matched, were studied. Blood was obtained to determine RBP levels as well as metabolic and hormonal parameters, and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA‐IR) was calculated for each subject. Results The RBP levels were higher (P < 0·01) in women with PCOS after adjusting for age, body mass index (BMI), mean blood pressure, triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL)‐cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL)‐cholesterol, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR), LH/FSH, total testosterone and SHBG levels. PCOS status was the strongest predictor of elevated RBP levels. In both the PCOS and control groups, RBP levels were significantly correlated with HOMA‐IR (P = 0·03 in the PCOS group; P = 0·01 in controls). In addition, RBP levels were significantly correlated with total cholesterol, LDL‐cholesterol and TG levels in PCOS (P < 0·01, P < 0·01 and P = 0·01, respectively). Conclusions Higher RBP levels in the PCOS group, when compared to the non‐PCOS group, were observed, and this difference may play a role in the pathophysiology found in women with PCOS. Further studies are needed to clarify the role of RBP in these women.
