A PILOT STUDY COMPARING REACTIVE HYPEREMIA IN WOMEN WITH PCOS & CONTROLS

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The objective of this study is to use reactive hyperemia to determine if there are any differences in vascular response in PCOS women when compared to a control group. The investigators believe this will shed light on the unique manner in which cardiovascular disease may differentially affect women with PCOS.
