The association between XXXX : A case-control study.

@entity1 @entity28 @entity1478 @entity209 @entity413
BACKGROUND: Endometrial polyps are common benign gynaecologic disorders. The etiopathogenesis of this condition remains unclear, however @entity28 is an important risk factor for the development of @entity1478 . AIM: The aim of the study was to evaluate a possible association between @entity1478 of @entity209 ( @entity209 ). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-five @entity1 with @entity1478 (study group) and 45 without (control group) were included in this cross-sectional study. The main parameters evaluated between the groups were age, BMI (body mass index), waist circumference (WC), blood pressure, serum lipid profiles, fasting @entity413 levels and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). RESULTS: There was a significant difference between the groups in terms of BMI, WC, insulin levels and HOMA-IR (P  <  0.05). The @entity209 was present in 32 (71.1%) of @entity1 in the study group and in 6 (13.3%) in the control group (P  <  0.001). Logistic regression demonstrated that @entity209 was a significant risk factor for @entity1478 . ROC curve analysis also showed that @entity209 was the most significant discriminative risk factor in the study group with an AUC of 0.789 (0.691-0.887; CI 95%). CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that there may be a relationship between @entity1478 and insulin resistance. Further studies are required to explain the role of this relationship in the pathogenesis of the disease.
