Detailed Description

Introduction: Betatrophin is a protein hormone which has a significant role in glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. The aim of this study is to compare the levels of serum betatrophin in overweight and normal weight women with PCOS.

Material and Method: Thirty-five patients normal weight women with PCOS (BMI<25) and 38 obese women with PCOS (BMI≥25) were included in this prospective, cross-sectional study. Patients were selected according to Rotterdam criteria. Serum betatrophin levels were studied by ELISA method and then compared between these two groups besides the following additional parameters as waist circumference/hip circumference ratio, fasting blood glucose, 75 g OGTT (oral glucose tolerance test) results and HOMA-IR levels.
