In this cross-sectional study, we have analyzed advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the plasma and follicular fluid of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) taking metformin during in vitro fertilization (IVF) and control women undergoing IVF. Glucose, fructose, fructosamine, carboxymethyl lysine/ arginine (CML/R) proteins, and pentosidine were measured in the plasma and paired follicular fluid. Glycated proteins were characterized by mass spectrometry.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is marked by insulin resistance, low grade chronic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction. Vitamin K2, especially menaquinone-7 (MK-7), might delay T2DM progression and alleviate its consequences. Hence, this study evaluated the effects of MK-7 on serum and urine markers of diabetes in an animal model of T2DM.

Objective: Glycemic monitoring via Hemoglobin A1(HbA1c) proves to be inaccurate when a patient is diagnosed with a hemoglobinopathy/erythrocyte disorder. Moreover, any acute changes of glycemic intake within 6 weeks of blood sampling have been noted to impart a greater effect on HbA1c than the remaining days of the supposed overall 3-to-4-month average of glycemic control. Fructosamine, an alternative to HbA1c, allows physicians to analyze glycemic control in the presence of an underlying hemoglobinopathy/erythrocyte disorder.
