Key result
Home-based aerobic training for 16 weeks significantly improved the visceral adiposity index in women with PCOS (P=0.014), but did not significantly change adipsin levels (P=0.097).
Why the study?
Polycystic ovary syndrome affects 5% to 8% of reproductive-age women and causes infertility, but the effects of home-based aerobic training on adipsin and visceral adiposity index needed investigation.
Does home-based aerobic training improve adipsin levels and visceral adiposity index in women with polycystic ovary syndrome?
Does home-based aerobic training improve adipsin levels and visceral adiposity index in women with polycystic ovary syndrome?
A 16-week home-based aerobic training program significantly improves the visceral adiposity index in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

May improve visceral adiposity in PCOS; hypothesis-generating for adipsin and requires randomized confirmation before practice change.
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is prevalent in 5% - 8% of women of reproductive age and is one of the most important causes of infertility. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of home-made aerobic activity on the level of changes in adipsin levels and visceral adiposity (VAI) in woman patients with chronic polycystic ovary syndrome in Kermanshah city. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out among 24 women with PCOS in 2017. The samples were 12 people in the intervention group and 12 people in the control group (referred to Kermanshah health centers). The intervention group then performed home-based aerobic training for 16 weeks. Serum levels of adiposity and visceral adiposity were measured before and after the exercise program through blood sampling. SPSS V.22 software was used for data analysis and t-test with independent sample and paired t-test. Results: There was a significant difference in the visceral adiposity index (VAI) after 16 weeks of aerobic exercise in the intervention group (P = 0.014). However, adipsin level changes were not statistically significant in the control and control groups. (P = 0.097). Conclusion: Aerobic exercise under house supervision has a favorable effect on the visceral adiposity index in women with PCOS and can be recommended as a safe treatment for these patients.

Javid et al. (2020) studied Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) (n=24). Home-based aerobic training vs. Control group was evaluated on Changes in adipsin levels and visceral adiposity index (VAI) (p=0.014). Home-based aerobic training for 16 weeks significantly improved the visceral adiposity index in women with PCOS (P=0.014), but did not significantly change adipsin levels (P=0.097).
