Correlation of plasma adipokines with endometrial atypical hyperplasia and type I/II endometrial cancer
The aim of the study was to systematically explore the relationships between various adipokines and risks of endometrial atypical hyperplasia (EAH), type I endometrial cancer (EC), and type II EC. We enrolled 219 patients in this study, including 39 EAH, 87 type I EC, 38 type II EC and 55 control individuals. We subsequently explored the association of adipokine levels and the leptin-to-adiponectin (L/A) ratio with EAH, type I EC, and type II EC. The plasma leptin level and L/A ratio were significantly higher in the EAH group than in the control group (
