PG - 501-507 LID - 10.1080/09513590.2019.1698025 [doi] AB - Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a risk factor for dysglycemia, insulin resistance, and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Inefficient energy oxidation, metabolic inflexibility, is a marker of blunted metabolism. We conducted a systematic review on metabolic inflexibility in women with PCOS. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane central (inception-October 2018) for studies evaluating metabolic inflexibility and reporting on changes in Respiratory Quotient (DeltaRQ). We extracted data and assessed quality using The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. We included five prospective cohort studies (461 women). Three compared PCOS women to unaffected subjects, one to women with obesity or T2DM, and one to adolescent girls; all had medium quality. Three studies showed higher metabolic inflexibility in women with PCOS (DeltaRQ range 0.05-0.098) compared to unaffected subjects. Women with PCOS had similar metabolic inflexibility compared to those with T2DM (DeltaRQ 0.05 +/- 0.03 vs 0.06 +/- 0.04, p = .98) and obesity (p = .06). Inflexibility was higher in hyperandrogenemic women with PCOS (DeltaRQ 0.091 +/- 0.060 vs 0.120 +/- 0.010, p = .014). DeltaRQ was lower in PCOS women with insulin resistance vs those with normal insulin sensitivity (0.04 +/- 0.02 vs. 0.07 +/- 0.04, p = .007). In conclusion, women with polycystic ovary syndrome appear to have higher metabolic inflexibility associated with hyperandrogenemia and insulin resistance.
