Background: Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is frequently utilized in rheumatic immune disorders and has been discovered to exert hypoglycemic effects in some obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS), however, the precise efficacy and mechanism of action remain ambiguous.
Objective: To examine the impact of HCQ on glucose and lipid metabolism as well as sex hormone levels in obese women with PCOS.
Method: Fifty obese women with PCOS were randomly allocated into two groups: HCQ group (n = 25) and metformin (MET) group (n = 25).

This paper investigates event-triggered affine formation control of second-order multi-agent systems with directed communication graph. An approach based on complex-valued Laplacian is used as a means of avoiding the use of global information. Two event-triggered strategies are proposed, both of which are capable of achieving global convergence and forming the desired formation without Zeno-behavior, while also optimizing the utilization of resources.
