Abstract
Objective The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between hemoglobin levels and metabolic disorders in patients with PCOS. Methods A total of 573 patients were selected, based on the hemoglobin level; 342 patients with PCOS were divided into two groups as follows: Group A (normal Hb group, n = 269) and Group B (high Hb group, n = 73); 231 non-PCOS patients were divided into two groups as follows: Group C (normal Hb group, n = 199), and Group D (high Hb group, n = 32). The general information, glucose and lipid metabolism indicators, and uric acid levels of all patients were compiled for data analysis. Results (1) Hb, HGB concentration in mean red blood cells and RDW in PCOS patients were higher than those in non-PCOS patients, and MCV was lower than that in non-PCOS patients (P < 0.05); (2) Compared with Group A, patients in Group B had higher BMI, Hb, 2-hPG, FINS, 2-hINS, HOMA-IR, LDL-C, and uric acid levels while the QUICKI was lower; in Group C, the age, FSH, HDL-C, and LDL-C were higher, and AMH, BMI, T, TG, and uric acid level were lower (P<0.05); compared with Group D, AMH, BMI, FINS, HOMA-IR, TG, uric acid level increased, while age, FSH, and QUICKI decreased in Group B; and Hb and T decreased in Group C (P<0.05); (3) Pearson's correlation analysis indicated that Hb in PCOS patients was positively correlated with BMI, FPG, 2-hPG, FINS, 2-hINS, and HOMA-IR, and negatively correlated with the QUICKI (P<0.05); (4) Multi-factor logistic regression analysis suggested that the high Hb level in PCOS patients was an independent risk factor of IR (P<0.05). Conclusion Hb level in patients with PCOS was associated with BMI and glucose metabolism indicators; a high Hb level may be an independent risk factor for IR.

Abstract
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrinopathy in reproductive-age females, accredited to a chronic low-grade inflammatory reaction. Red distribution width (RDW), a parameter of complete blood count, was tested as an inflammatory marker ; higher RDW was linked to metabolic syndrome. We aimed to examine RDW in distinguishing PCOS-related metabolic and hormonal abnormalities. Methods : A case-control study recruited 128 women, divided into PCOS cases (64 / 128) and controls (64 / 128) according to Rotterdam criteria. Body mass index (BMI), estimated complete blood count parameters, hormonal markers (serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone, and serum testosterone), and metabolic markers (HOMA-IR, serum high and low-density lipoprotein) were measured. Results showed that RDW was significantly higher in PCOS. HOMA-IR, LDL, testosterone, and LH / FSH were higher in PCOS and strongly correlated with RDW with positive correlations. HDL was elevated and correlated negatively with RDW in PCOS. ROC calculated (13.55) as RDW cut-off value for insulin-resistant with an AUC of 0.95, P < 0.001. In conclusion, a strong and remarkable correlation of RDW with metabolic abnormalities in PCOS cases with 100% sensitivity and specificity, in addition to being quick and inexpensive, makes it a reliable marker for screening for insulin resistance.

Theriogenology 2020; 159:153-164. [PMID: 33157453 DOI: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2020.10.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2020] [Revised: 10/08/2020] [Accepted: 10/22/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
The inflammatory factors of complete blood count (CBC) are associated with a decrease in the in vitro embryo production (IVP) outcome in women. The relation between the blood indices and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in bovines remains to be elucidated. Using ovum pick-up (OPU), oocytes were retrieved from heifers (n = 60) and inseminated separately with sperm. The blastocyst formation was recorded on day 7 after insemination for each animal and the blood indices were evaluated at the time of OPU. Then, heifers were classified on the basis of (1) blastocyst formation, cleaved vs. failed, or (2) inflammation, low-grade inflammation (lymphocyte counts > 5.6 × 109/L) vs. no inflammation (lymphocyte counts < 5.6 × 109/L). Oocytes derived from heifers with higher lymphocytes, red blood cells (RBC), platelets, hematocrit, red cell distribution width (RDW-SD) and plateletcrit values and lower monocytes, eosinophils, mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and MCH concentration (MCHC) successfully developed to the blastocyst stage. Heifers with low-grade inflammation numerically had a higher percentage of blastocyst formation than normal heifers. The principle component analysis (PCA) showed that blastocyst formation had the strongest positive association with RDW-cv and RDW-SD, while having a strong negative association with mean corpuscular volume (MCV), hemoglobin, MCHC and MCH. The PCA determined that the number of grade A COCs and the percentage of COCs reached the cleavage stage had a negative association with white blood cells (WBC), lymphocytes, basophils and monocytes, and a positive correlation with platelet to lymphocyte ratio, platelet distribution width (PDW) and plateletcrit. Network mapping detected close similarities between BFR and RDW-SD, MPV, and lymphocytes. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) identified that, eosinophils (AUC 0.80), RDW-SD (AUC 0.76), monocytes (AUC 0.76) and lymphocytes (AUC 0.76) had a good predictive ability to detect heifers with high OPU-IVP outcome (≥60%). In conclusion, these findings suggest that CBC indices at the time of OPU were associated with the IVF outcome and may be incorporated into protocols for the identification of heifers with high potential for blastocyst formation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There have been few studies on hematological parameters (e.g., hemoglobin, red cell distribution width, white blood cells, and mean platelet volume), and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This study aimed to compare hematological parameters between women with PCOS and controls. METHODS We performed an age-matched case-control study in Faisal bin Mishal Center for Infertility, Buraidah (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia). The cases were women with PCOS and an equal number of healthy women were enrolled as controls. The basic gynecological history was recorded and blood samples were analyzed for blood parameters using an automated hematology analyzer. RESULTS The two groups (60 women in each arm of the study) were similar in age. However, body mass index was significantly higher in women with PCOs compared with controls. There were no significant differences in any of the hematological parameters (hemoglobin, red blood cells, red cell distribution width, white blood cells, platelets, and mean platelet volume) between the two groups. CONCLUSION There does not appear to be a significant difference in hematological parameters in Saudi women with PCOS and healthy controls. A larger study on this issue is required in the future.

A structural equation model to assess the pathways of body adiposity and inflammation status on dysmetabolic biomarkers via red cell distribution width and mean corpuscular volume: a cross-sectional study in overweight and obese subjects. Lipids Health Dis 2020; 19:154. [PMID: 32590977 PMCID: PMC7320558 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-020-01308-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Accepted: 06/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background A study has been performed in overweight and obese subjects to assess the effects of adiposity and inflammation indicators on dysmetabolic biomarkers via red cell distribution width (RDW) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV), taking into account pro-antioxidant balance. Methods Data from 166 overweight subjects were analyzed by a path analysis model using structural equation modelling (SEM) to evaluate the direct and indirect pathway effects of adiposity, measured by body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC), and inflammation status, measured by pro-antioxidant balance [reactive oxygen species (ROS)], lag-time and slope and C-reactive protein (CRP) values on dysmetabolic biomarkers, via RDW and MCV. Results BMI was strongly linked to CRP and ROS levels. Moreover, there was a significant negative decrease of MCV (1.546 femtoliters) linked to BMI indirectly via high CRP levels. Furthermore, WC affected RDW, indicating a possible mediatory role for RDW in relation to the relationship between WC and homeostatic model assessment (HOMA), insulin and high density lipoprotein (HDL), respectively. This was evident by the elevated HOMA and insulin levels and the decreased levels of HDL. Finally, ROS-related markers did not affect directly RDW and MCV. Conclusion The reported outcomes suggest that RDW might play a mediatory role in the relationship between WC and the dysmetabolic outcomes in overweight and obese individuals. CRP seems to modulate the linkage between BMI and MCV. This study provides the backbone structure for future scenarios and lays the foundation for further research on the role of RDW and MCV as suitable biomarkers for the assessment of cardiovascular disease (HDL-cholesterol), inflammatory bowels and insulin resistance.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The AIM of this experimental study was to evaluate the effect of the antioxidant drug "U-74389G" in a rat model of hypoxia reoxygenation (HR) using the previously established protocol. Effects of treatment were evaluated by mean red blood cell distribution width (RDW) levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS 40 rats of a mean weight of 231.875 g were employed in the study. RDW levels were determined at 60 min (groups A and C) and at 120 min (groups B and D) after starting the reoxygenation. Groups A and B received no drugs, whereas rats from groups C and D were administered with U-74389G. RESULTS demonstrated that U-74389G administration significantly decreased the RDW levels by 4.96% + 2.27% (p = 0.0175). Reoxygenation time non-significantly decreased the RDW levels by 0.27% + 2.41% (p = 0.8889). Together, U-74389G administration and reoxygenation time non-significantly decreased the RDW levels by 2.54% + 1.39% (p = 0.0679). CONCLUSIONS U-74389G administration particulary in concert without reperfusion declines the RDW levels even within the short - time context of 1.5 hours reperfusion.
