ABSTRACT
This paper was to explore the relationship between plasma omentin and obesity and insulin resistance in patients of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in serum omentin levels among control group,PCOS-normal weight group,and PCOS-overweight group [(115.29 ± 33.92),(111.12 ± 34.50),and (42.85 ± 19.39) pg/ml,P< 0.05].Omentin were negatively correlated with homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) and body mass index(BMI).In the multiple stepwise regression analysis,only omentin was negatively correlated with BMI.Omentin may be involved in the development of PCOS by affecting obesity.
