NCT04641624

Brief Summary

Aim: To evaluate serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1, proangiogenic protein placental growth factor, and niacin levels in women with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and to compare the results with those of healthy subjects. Methods: This prospective study will be included 45 women with idiopathic premature ovarian insufficiency and 45 controls. The blood for analysis will be obtained at the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle and serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1, proangiogenic protein placental growth factor, and niacin levels will be measured using a commercially available ELISA kit.

Study Arms (2)

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI)

POI is a clinical syndrome defined by loss of ovarian activity before the age of 40 years. POI is characterized by menstrual disturbance (amenorrhea or oligomenorrhea) with raised gonadotrophins and low estradiol. The study population will be consisted of 45 women with POI as study group.

Other: ultrasound assessment

Control group

45 patients with normal healthy women as control group.

Other: ultrasound assessment

Interventions

soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1, proangiogenic protein placental growth factor, and niacin measurementswith a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit.

Also known as: soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1, proangiogenic protein placental growth factor, and niacin measurements
Control groupPremature ovarian insufficiency (POI)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 39 Years
Sexfemale(Gender-based eligibility)
Gender Eligibility DetailsPOI is a clinical syndrome defined by loss of ovarian activity before the age of 40 years. POI is characterized by menstrual disturbance (amenorrhea or oligomenorrhea) with raised gonadotrophins and low estradiol. It is estimated to affect 1% of women under the age of 40, 0.1% under 30 and 0.01% under 20.
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)
Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

The investigators consecutively will be recruited 45 subjects with POI, and 45 healthy women will be selected for the control group.

You may qualify if:

  • women with POI
  • Healthy women

You may not qualify if:

  • women with any systemic condition (such as chronic hypertension, renal disease)
  • history of using any medication
  • drug user
  • history/presence of malignancy
  • history of Radiotherapy/chemotherapy
  • polycystic ovary syndrome
  • women who had any other acute/chronic infection or fever
  • Patients whose chromosome analysis result is not normal
  • history of ovarian surgery
  • Ovarian cysts/mass
  • pregnancy
  • lactation
