Increased risk of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension and coronary artery disease in perimenopausal women with a history of the polycystic ovary syndrome
TL;DR: Women in the general population have the same level of risk factors at perimenopausal age as PCOS women, and patients with markedly expressed clinical symptoms of PCOS made up a subgroup in thegeneral population at high risk for developing NIDDM and coronary artery disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jana Vrbikova,David Cibula,Katerina Dvorakova,S. Stanicka,Sindelka G,Martin Hill,M. Fanta,Karel Vondra,Jan Škrha +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that lean PCOS women are not more insulin resistant than healthy controls and insulin hypersecretion, on the other hand, is present even in lean PCos women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pregnancy outcome in women with PCOS and in controls matched by age and weight
TL;DR: When differences in age and weight between PCOS patients and controls are negligible, PCOS is not associated with a higher risk of pregnancy complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of androgens in determining acne severity in adult women.
TL;DR: The study suggests that the severity of acne manifestation in adult women is not determined by androgen production, and women with a higher grade of acne severity showed lower values of the index of free testosterone, a lower hirsutism score and higher SHBG levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of combination therapy with metformin and combined oral contraceptives (COC) versus COC alone on insulin sensitivity, hyperandrogenaemia, SHBG and lipids in PCOS patients
David Cibula,M. Fanta,Jana Vrbikova,S. Stanicka,Katerina Dvorakova,Martin Hill,Jan Škrha,Jan Zivny,Jana Skrenkova +8 more
TL;DR: Adding metformin slightly modified the treatment effect of COC, causing a more significant decrease in the free androgen index but having no additional positive impact on lipids, insulin sensitivity, SHBG or testosterone.
