Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome is an endocrine disorder with many complications. This syndrome is a growing concern among adolescents around the world, with varying reports of its prevalence in different parts of the world.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents by a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Materials And Methods: In this study, a search for published articles with an English language limitation and without a time limit was done in different databases (Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science, Emabse and Cochrane) in January 2019. The 12 studies that met the criteria for entering a qualitative assessment scale of 5 and higher were subjected to systematic review and meta-analysis. Egger and Begg's tests were used to check the publication bias. Data were analyzed with STATA software, version 11.1.
Results: Twelve studies were included for meta-analysis. The total number of participants in the study was 149,477. The average quality score of all studies was 8.67 (range: 5-10). The prevalence of polycystic ovarian syndrome in adolescents based on the Rotterdam criteria was 11.04% (95% CI: 6.84-16.09%), based on the National Institute of Health criteria, it was 3.39% (95% CI: 0.28-9.54%), and based on Androgen Excess and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Society, it was 8.03% (95% CI: 6.24-10.01%).
Conclusion: The result of this study showed that there is a variation in the prevalence of PCOS in adolescents based on different criteria; we suggest more community-based studies among adolescences in different parts of the world.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent metabolic endocrine disorder in reproductive-aged women. This study aims to investigate the self-healing ability of PCOS and its potential impact on offspring. Methods: Female C57 BL/6J mice aged 4-5 weeks were administered letrozole (1 mg/kg/d) and a high-fat diet for 21 days to establish a PCOS model, and a control group was established.

Introduction: The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines recognize the importance of causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD), glomerular filtration rate, and albuminuria as predictors of kidney outcome and prognosis. However, compared with biopsy-proven causes, there has been limited research regarding the relationship between clinically diagnosed causes of CKD and patient prognosis.
Methods: We examined 3,119 patients with non-dialysis-dependent CKD who participated in the Fukuoka Kidney disease Registry Study, a multicenter prospective cohort study.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem, affecting over 840 million individuals. CKD is linked to higher mortality and morbidity, partially mediated by higher cardiovascular risk and worsening kidney function. This study aimed to identify risk factors and develop risk prediction models for selected cardiorenal clinical outcomes in patients with non-diabetic CKD.

Background: Adolescent females have a high prevalence of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) anterior disc displacement (ADD), which can lead to condylar resorption and dentofacial deformity. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder that disrupts bone metabolism. However, the effects of PCOS on bone remodeling especially after disc repositioning (DR) surgery are not well understood.
