Coexisting PCOS and obesity in adolescents is associated with modest alterations in metabolic and echocardiographic markers, suggesting higher cardiometabolic risk than either condition alone.
Do subclinical cardiac alterations and cardiometabolic profiles differ in adolescents with newly diagnosed PCOS when coexisting with obesity compared to PCOS or obesity alone?
The coexistence of obesity and newly diagnosed PCOS in adolescents is associated with modest differences in metabolic and echocardiographic markers, indicating a higher cardiometabolic risk that warrants early identification.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Selected metabolic and echocardiographic markers showed modest differences when PCOS coexisted with obesity, suggesting a potentially higher cardiometabolic risk compared with PCOS or obesity alone. Early identification and targeted management are essential to mitigate long-term cardiometabolic complications in this high-risk group.
