Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study investigates circulating levels of SCUBE-1 and SCUBE-3 proteins in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) compared with healthy controls. Differences between normoinsulinemic and hyperinsulinemic PCOS subgroups will be evaluated, as well as correlations with clinical and metabolic parameters related to inflammation and cardiovascular risk.
