BACKGROUND
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) is a dermatologic condition associated with hyperinsulinemia, a marker of insulin resistance that is the principal abnormality in metabolic syndrome (MetS). We examined the association of AN with the clustering of MetS components.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study
BACKGROUND
Studies have suggested an association between the presence of acanthosis nigricans (AN) and the development of diabetes.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the association between AN and insulin resistance (IR) in overweight children and adolescents receiving care at the Center for Childhood
CONCLUSIONS
OBJECTIVE
Aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of Acanthosis Nigricans (AN) in a central Kerala south Indian population and to evaluate its correlations with diabetes, obesity, insulin levels and other factors.
METHODS
A cross-sectional community survey including physical
OBJECTIVE
To establish the prevalence of acanthosis nigricans (AN) within the context of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its associations with obesity, insulin resistance, insulinemia, and metabolic syndrome (MS).
METHODS
A cross-sectional prospective study was conducted on 100 patients with
OBJECTIVE
To observe the relationship of childhood benign acanthosis nigricans to anthropometric and metabolic indexes, with the aim of studying the association between childhood benign acanthosis nigricans and metabolic diseases.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data
OBJECTIVE
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) is among the most common dermatologic manifestations of obesity and hyperinsulinism. In this study, we aimed to find the clinical and laboratory differences in obese children with AN and without AN (non-AN).
METHODS
In total, 160 obese children were included in
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) develops commonly in obese adults, yet its prevalence and metabolic significance in children and adolescents have not been determined. To address these issues, 100 obese children and adolescents enrolled in the obesity clinic at the Royal Hospital, Muscat, Oman, were chosen
OBJECTIVE
To determine the association of Acanthosis nigricans, hyperinsulinemia, and hormonal levels in female subjects from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
METHODS
Prospective study.
METHODS
Tawam Teaching Hospital of Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences.
METHODS
Ninety-two females (age range
Background: The present study aimed to determine the association of the triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) index with IR in pediatric patients with overweight (OW) and OB, to assess the ability of the TG/HDL-C index to predict IR, and to estimate the
OBJECTIVE
To study the prevalence of alterations of glucose and lipoprotein metabolism and the impact of acanthosis nigricans (AN) in childhood obesity.
METHODS
113 obese children, 57 with simple obesity (SO) and 58 with obesity and AN (OAN). Oral glucose tolerance test was performed, serum glucose,
We examined the association between acanthosis nigricans, hyperinsulinaemia and other risk factors for cardiovascular disease in patients from the United Arab Emirates. Height, weight and sitting blood pressure were recorded in 122 patients with acanthosis nigricans, and blood samples were obtained
BACKGROUND
In adults, both metabolic alterations related to syndrome X and lower plasma vitamin E levels have been associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
OBJECTIVE
To study the presence of metabolic alterations related to syndrome X and to determine the plasma levels

METHODS
Matched case-control study.
