The Role of Antimullerian Hormone in the Diagnosis of Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrom.
...Show More Authors

Background: Polycystic vary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder, affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age. The cardinal features of PCOS are hyperandrogenism (HA) and oligo-anovulation. Many work teams recently have relate the severity of PCOS with Anti mullerian hormone (AMH) or antral follicle count (AFC). Objective: 1) to confirm if there is an increase of serum AMH in this group of patients with PCOS, 2) to relate the AMH level to the follicle status at ultrasound (U/S) in this group, and 3) to search if AMH or AFC can serve as surrogate for the definition of PCOS. 

Patients and methods: Twenty five (control) and another 45 participants (with PCOS) were selected for this study. The control women had a mean age of 32.5 year (yr) and the patients group women had a mean age of 28.4 yr. Blood samples were collected from all participants, anthropometric measurements were calculated, and transvaginal U/S was performed to measure the AFC during the early follicular phase. The blood samples were assayed for AMH, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and estradiol (E2) and total testosterone (TT).

Results: Basal serum hormonal levels of LH, AMH and TT as well as AFC were significantly higher in the study group than in controls. While basal serum levels of E2 and FSH show no significant difference between the two groups. Body mass index (BMI) is significantly higher in PCOS patients. Basal serum levels of AMH  show significant positive correlation with both AFC and basal serum TT levels.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROCAUC ) for AMH and AFC show significant sensitive and specificities

Conclusion: serum AMH and AFC appear as a sensitive and specific parameter that would probably help in the diagnosis of PCOS. Both criteria need to be incorporated into the Rotterdam definition for PCOS, and it indicates PCOS only if associated with HA and/or oligo-anovulation.

Serum Leptin levels in ovarian polycystic disease and its correlation to body weight
...Show More Authors

Background: Poly cystic ovary syndrome is a common disorder in women of  reproductive  age,  it  is associated  with  disturbance of  reproductive, endocrine  and  metabolic  functions. The pathophysiology of PCOS appears to be multifactorial and polygenic. Leptin seems to play an important role in pathophysiology of PCOS especially in women with BMI ≥25kg/m2.

Evaluation of Calcium Regulating Hormones and Some Biochemical Parameters in Growth Hormone Deficient Patients
...Show More Authors

The present study aims to evaluate levels of calcium regulating hormones and some biochemical parameters in a sample of growth hormone (GH) deficient patients. Seventy five GH deficient patients and twenty healthy subjects used as a control group have been involved in this study during their attendance at the National Diabetic Centerfor Treatment and Research /Al-Mustansiriya University. The studied subjects were in an age range of 3-15 years. Blood samples were collected from the studied subjects to determine levels of basal GH,GH2. and GH3 after 60 mins. and 90mins. of provocation with clonidine. The study also included the measurement of the levels of insulin like growth factor (IGF-1); calcium regulating hormones [parathyroid hormone
