Trial summary

The aim of our study was to compare the difference of fatty infiltration in liver and muscle using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) between overweight as well as obese polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) cases and body mass index (BMI)-matched women without PCOS, identifying the possible influence factors.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MRIRadiation

    MRI-mDIXON-Quant examinations, anthropometric measures, body composition, hormonal and biochemical assays were performed in all participants, and the liver fat fraction (LFF) and muscle fat fraction (MFF) represented the fat content in the liver and skeletal muscle, respectively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, run by Bing He at 1 site in China.

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 24 Oct 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 China. 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?

liver fat fraction (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 24 Oct 2022.
