primary ovarian insufficiency/carbohydrate

In this study, we report the effects of cyclic hormone replacement therapy on carbohydrate metabolism in six women with premature ovarian failure. Using tolbutamide-modified iv glucose tolerance tests patients were evaluated during three different intervals of their second treatment cycle: no

METHODS A case control study was undertaken in 294 patients recruited from the reproductive endocrine clinic of our hospital over the period from November 2015 to January 2017.

Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a condition affecting 1% of women in the general population, causing amenorrhea, hypergonadotropism and hypoestrogenism before the age of 40. Currently, POF cannot be reversed and, although treatments are available, there is an urgent need for improved treatment

Our study aimed at screening patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSs) for the presence of antiovarian antibodies (AOAs). Detection of AOAs in patients' sera was achieved by ELISA, using bovine ovarian extract for coating. Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry were used to characterize

Classical Galactosaemia is a rare disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by a deficiency of galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT). The disease is life-threatening in the neonate, and the only treatment option is life-long dietary restriction of galactose. However, long-term
