Does endothelial dysfunction correlate with endocrinal abnormalities in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome?
To study and critically analyze the published evidence on correlation of hormonal abnormalities and endothelial dysfunction (ED) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) through a systematic review. The databases including MEDLINE, PubMed, Up-To-Date, and Science Direct were searched using Medical subjec...
