About this trial

In this study, the investigators will include PCOS patients who meet the trial criteria, introduce participants to the content of this study, and invite participants to participate. The immune function of peripheral blood samples of PCOS patients was detected by flow cytometry. Participants were further treated with metformin for 6 months and followed up after the intervention. The objective of this study was to investigate immune markers related to the efficacy of metformin in PCOS patients and to predict the efficacy of metformin in PCOS patients using immune function.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The number of cell groups expressing different markers were counted by the fluorescence detection system on flow cytometry.

Flow cytometry was used to detect the antigenic antibody reaction between the surface differentiation antigen of lymphocyte membrane and the fluorescently labeled antibody in human peripheral blood, and the unlabeled cells were dissolved.

Time frame
Samples to be collected once per participant within 7 days of enrollment.
