630-660 / 1000+ resultsresearch Early Androgenetic Alopecia and Insulin Resistance: A Case Control Study
research Four Days of Simulated Shift Work Reduces Insulin Sensitivity in Humans
Working night shifts for four days can lower the body's ability to use insulin, which may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes.
research Correlation of Hair Mineral Concentrations with Insulin Resistance in Korean Males
Higher hair calcium to magnesium ratios and lower chromium levels in hair may indicate insulin resistance in Korean men.
research Intracrine Testosterone Activation in Human Pancreatic Beta-Cells Stimulates Insulin Secretion
Testosterone helps human pancreatic cells increase insulin release.
research The Association of Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance in Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia in Males: A Case-Control Study
research Intracrine Testosterone Activation in Human Pancreatic Beta Cells Stimulates Insulin Secretion
Testosterone in human pancreas cells boosts insulin production.
research Intracrine Testosterone Activation in Human Pancreatic Beta Cells Stimulates Insulin Secretion
Testosterone in our bodies helps increase insulin secretion from the pancreas.
research Early Androgenetic Alopecia as a Marker of Insulin Resistance
research Serum Level of Galectin-3 and Its Relation to Insulin Resistance in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia
research Association Between the Serum Estrone-to-Estradiol Ratio and Parameters Related to Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Resistance in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Higher estrone-to-estradiol ratios are linked to worse glucose metabolism and insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
research Effects of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) on Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) Secretion from Balding Hair Follicles
research Assessment of Serum Level of Myostatin in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia and Its Relation to Insulin Resistance
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Clinical and Biochemical Features
PCOS is a common hormonal disorder causing irregular periods and increased hair growth, linked to insulin resistance and long-term health issues.
research Genetic, Hormonal, and Metabolic Aspects of PCOS: An Update
The document concludes that insulin resistance is key in PCOS development and early treatment is crucial to prevent complications.
research The Pathophysiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.
research Endothelial Dysfunction in PCOS: Role of Obesity and Adipose Hormones
Women with PCOS have heart-related issues not because of obesity, but due to insulin resistance and low adiponectin levels.
research Global Adiposity Rather Than Abnormal Regional Fat Distribution Characterizes Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have overall higher body fat, not abnormal fat placement, and more insulin resistance.
research Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Improves Cardiometabolic Function in Young Obese Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Treating sleep apnea in young obese women with PCOS can improve heart health and insulin sensitivity.
research A 12-Week Treatment with the Long-Acting Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonist Liraglutide Leads to Significant Weight Loss in a Subset of Obese Women with Newly Diagnosed Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Liraglutide caused significant weight loss in some obese women with PCOS, especially those with severe obesity and insulin resistance.
research Cutaneous Findings and Systemic Associations in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS often have more body hair, acne, and skin darkening, and these signs are linked to metabolic issues like insulin resistance and high cholesterol.
research Prevalence of Hyperandrogenic States in Late Adolescent and Young Women: Epidemiological Survey on Italian High-School Students
Many young Italian women have hyperandrogenic disorders like PCOS, which are linked to age, body weight, and insulin resistance.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and NC-CAH: Distinct Characteristics and Common Findings. A Systematic Review
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is common in women with conditions like anovulation, hirsutism, hair loss, and type 2 diabetes, and it can lead to health risks like heart disease, obesity, insulin resistance, and depression. Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (NC-CAH) is also discussed.
research Metabolic Aspects of Different Phenotypes of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Iranian PCOS Prevalence Study
The study suggests that being overweight or obese, not PCOS itself, is strongly linked to insulin resistance.
research Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Clinical, Biochemical, and Molecular Genetic Study
High levels of TNF-α may contribute to obesity and insulin resistance in PCOS, but not due to the C850T genetic variation.
research Treatment of the Adolescent Patient with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
More research is needed to understand the long-term benefits of insulin-sensitizing drugs for treating adolescents with PCOS.
research Hair Follicle Elongation in Organ Culture of Skin from Newborn and Adult Mice
Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research History of Discovery of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was first described in 1721, officially diagnosed in the 1990s, and is now known to be partly genetic and linked to insulin resistance, with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and carbohydrate metabolism issues.
research Chromium Supplementation in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Chromium supplements don't improve insulin, hormone levels, or cholesterol in women with PCOS but raise testosterone levels.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Women with PCOS have higher 5α-reductase activity, which may be linked to insulin resistance.
