Trial summary

The most common endocrine condition in reproductive women is polycystic ovary syndrome. It has a prevalence of 5-10%. According to the Rotterdam criteria, oligo/anovulation, clinic or biochemical hyperandrogenism, PCOS morphology in ultrasonography, and the presence of these two criteria are required for diagnosis.

About this study

Official title: Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Ovarian Stroma in PCOS Women

The most common endocrine condition in reproductive women is polycystic ovary syndrome. It has a prevalence of 5-10%. According to the Rotterdam criteria, oligo/anovulation, clinic or biochemical hyperandrogenism, PCOS morphology in ultrasonography, and the presence of these two criteria are required for diagnosis.

The echogenicity of the ovarian stroma, vascularity, ovarian size, cystic pattern density, and subcortical organization of cysts are all significant considerations in ultrasonographic evaluation.

Read the detailed description

Retrospective archive study.

In the years 2018-2019, the ultrasonographic archives of PCOS women will be analyzed retrospectively in the Radiology department of Usak Education and Research Hospital. Ultrasonographic (Two-dimensional ultrasonography , conventional and other doppler) measurements of ovaries will be assessed in ultrasonographic data. Patient's data ( Menstrual cycle, androgenic findings, age, BMI etc..) will be obtained on the hospital records, PCOS patient's phenotype will be evaluated according to National Institutes Health (NIH) recommendations.

The ovarian ultrasonographic findings of PCOS women will be compared.

This study approved by Usak University Medical Faculty Ethical Committee April,06,2022.

The Ethical Committee decision number is 57-57-04.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The superiority of Superb microvascular imaging doppler technique over the conventional doppler techniques

    The Toshiba Aplio 500 ultrasonography tool (Toshiba, Aplio 500, Tokyo, Japan) was used in the Radiology Policlinic Ultrasonography Unit to perform ultrasonography using a 1-6 MHz convex probe. After scanning the lesion with TAUSG, 5-12 second-long video pictures were recorded. The ovarian stromal vascularity was defined according to the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) group criteria. Four categories of endometrial blood flow were identified: No coloration in grade 1, one or more punctate colorations in grade 2, one linear coloring or several (>5) punctate colorations in grade 3, and multiple linear colorations in grade 4 of the ovary. [14]. The vascularization rating was done independently using CDI, PDI, cSMI, and mSMI techniques. In all patients, the ovarian morphologic features were recorded for the both ovaries. Three radiologists analyzed the captured video pictures and assigned a consensus rating.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cysts, run by Usak State Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The superiority of Superb microvascular imaging doppler technique over the conventional doppler techniques (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05418595, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Sep 2022.
