To review and meta-analyse the studies evaluating the status of serum inflammatory markers in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Systematic review and meta-analysis of articles published in English before January 2010 and identified using the Entrez-PubMed engine. Academic hospital Measurement of serum concentrations of inflammatory markers by high-sensitivity techniques. Meta-analyses of the mean difference in serum C-reactive protein (CRP), interlekin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) concentrations among patients with PCOS and appropriate controls, applying random-effects models to limit interstudy variability, and using appropriate estimates of evidence dissemination bias. Meta-analysis of the 31 articles meeting inclusion criteria showed that circulating CRP was 96% higher in women with PCOS compared to controls (95% confidence interval 71% – 122%, z = 7.32, p < 0.0001) without evidence dissemination bias (Egger’s regression intercept 0.45, 95% confidence interval −2.30 – 3.21, P = 0.739). These findings persisted after excluding five studies with mismatches in body mass and/or frequency of obesity between women with PCOS and controls. Meta-analyses involving 10 studies of IL-6, and 9 studies of TNF-α revealed no statistically significant differences between PCOS and controls. Women with PCOS exhibit elevation in circulating CRP that is independent of obesity. This finding corroborates existing molecular evidence of the chronic low-grade inflammation that may underpin the pathogenesis of this disorder.
