Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 and apelin in fibromyalgia syndrome
View through CrossRef
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the potential roles of proprotein convertase subtilisin/ kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and apelin in the etiology of fibromyalgia syndrome (FS).
Patients and methods: The retrospective study was conducted between May 2022 and February 2023. Fifty-eight female FS patients (mean age: 45.2±9.9 years; range, 25 to 66 years) and 30 age- and body mass index-matched control subjects (mean age: 43.1±9.9 years; range, 26 to 67 years) were included in the study. Apelin and PCSK9 levels of all individuals were measured using appropriate methods.
Results: The levels of PCSK9 (173.2±62.2 vs. 75.1±44.1, p
