Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The aim of this analysis is to assess the effect of obesity on reproductive hormones in Chineses patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Seven databases were searched. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) assessed the quality of included studies. A meta-analysis was performed using random-effects model. The means and standard deviations of the outcomes were synthesized as standardized mean differences (SMDs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). A total of 23 studies involving 4554 patients with PCOS were included. No significant differences in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) (p = 0.51), estradiol (E2) (p = 0.48), and prolactin (PRL) (p = 0.46) levels were found between obese and nonobese PCOS patients. However, obese PCOS patients had significantly lower levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) (p < 0.00001), LH/FSH (p = 0.001), progesterone (P) (p = 0.009), and anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) (p = 0.001). Conversely, they exhibited significantly higher testosterone (T) (p = 0.001) levels. Obese PCOS patients exhibited lower levels of LH, LH/FSH, P, and AMH, but higher T levels compared to nonobese PCOS patients, and no significant difference were observed in FSH, E2, and PRL levels in PCOS patients with and without obesity.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
