Summary

Objective: To evaluate serum endocan levels in women with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and to compare the results with those of healthy subjects.

Methods: This prospective study included 38 women with idiopathic POI and 39 controls. The blood for analysis was obtained at the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle and serum endocan levels were measured using a commercially available ELISA kit. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol, and anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) were measured at the same time. The continuous values were evaluated using Student's t-test, and categorical values were evaluated using the Chi-square test. P values \< .05 were accepted as significant.

Endocan levels

Venous blood sample from the antecubital veins for measuring serum concentration of Endocan. The serum endocan level was measured using a commercially available ELISA kit, which is produced to detect human endocan levels with high sensitivity and specificity (Elabscience Biotechnology Inc., Houston, TX, USA). The endocan measurements were performed in accordance with company's protocol.
