Hyperandrogenism
Hyperandrogenism and anthropometric parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
One of the main features of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is increased adipose tissue, which can result in hormonal disturbances. In the present study, we aimed to investigate which indicator of obesity could better associate with hormonal disturbances in PCOS women.
The anti-obesity effects of postbiotics
The anti-obesity effects of postbiotics: A systematic review of pre-clinical and clinical studies
The growing prevalence of obesity has become a major concern worldwide, therefore a great number of studies are conducted every day in the field of obesity. Since postbiotics are a newly introduced term, there is not much systematic evidence about their function and impact on obesity. We designed this study to systematically review the effect of different types of postbiotics on obesity.

Effect of resveratrol administration on ovarian morphology
Effect of resveratrol administration on ovarian morphology, determined by transvaginal ultrasound for the women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Intake of resveratrol has been associated with improved ovarian morphology under in vitro and in the animal models; however, this finding has not been confirmed in trials. The aim of our study was, therefore, to use a placebo-controlled approach with the detailed assessment of the ovarian morphology by applying transvaginal ultrasound to examine the effectiveness of this therapeutic approach in this group of women. The mean age of all participants was 28·61 (sd 4·99) years, with the mean BMI of 28·26 (sd 5·62) kg/m2
thyroid cancer
Continued rise in the incidence of thyroid cancer in Iran: true increase or overdiagnosis?
Thyroid cancer (TC) is commonly recognized as the most prevalent type of malignancy affecting the endocrine system. This study aimed to assess the incidence of TC and its trends in the Iranian population. Methods: The incidence rate of TC in Iran was determined using data from the Iranian National Population-based Cancer Registry (INPCR).
hemoglobin
Association between serum hemoglobin level and bone mineral density in adults: Iranian multi-center osteoporosis study (IMOS)
he associations between serum hemoglobin (Hb) levels and bone mineral density (BMD) were investigated in population of the 4th Iranian Multicenter Osteoporosis Study (IMOS). A positive relationship between Hb levels and BMD at hip and femoral neck were detected only in men.
