dc.description.abstractThis study explores the relationship between clinical cardiovascular risk factors and clinical androgen excess, with direct comparison to radial artery intima media thickness (rIMT). rIMT of 91 patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) were compared with 72 healthy women. Patients were divided into three groups with regard to body mass index (BMI). Group1=56 women (31 controls and 25 PCOS) with low BMI(18-22.49 kg/m(2)), Group2=36 women (15 controls and 21 PCOS) with normal BMI (22.5-24.99 kg/m(2)) and Group3=71 women (26 controls and 45 PCOS) with high BMI (25-30 kg/m(2)). rIMT was significantly higher in patients with PCOS (p=0.007). rIMT was significantly higher group1 and group3 in patients with PCOS compared to controls (p=0.007 and p=0.042, respectively). There was a significant positive association between rIMT levels and fT in women with PCOS in group1 (r=0.24, p=0.04). rIMT levels correlated to fT levels in women with PCOS in group3 (r=0.32, p=0.03). Modified Ferriman-Gallwey (mFG) scores demonstrated a positive association with free testosterone, total testosterone, free androgen index, waist circumference (WC), LH levels, insulin levels, Homeostasis Model Assessment index(HOMA-IR), rIMT and a negative correlation with sex hormone binding globulin in group1 and group2. mFG scores demonstrated a positive association with free testosterone (r=0.33, p=0.029) in group3, but no association was found between mFG and WC, HOMA-IR in group3. Our findings indicate that clinical androgen excess may be associated with cardiovascular disease in patients with PCOS.en_US
