Popis: OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between personal history, anthropometric features and lifestyle characteristics and endometrial malignancy in women with abnormal vaginal bleeding. METHODS: Prospective observational cohort assessed by descriptive and multivariable logistic regression analyses. Three features-age, body mass index (BMI; calculated as weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters), and nulliparity-were defined a priori for baseline risk assessment of endometrial malignancy. The following variables were tested for added value: intrauterine contraceptive device, bleeding pattern, age at menopause, coexisting diabetes/hypertension, physical exercise, fat distribution, bra size, waist circumference, smoking/drinking habits, family history, use of hormonal/anticoagulant therapy, and sonographic endometrial thickness. We calculated adjusted odds ratio, optimism-corrected area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), R2 , and Akaike's information criterion. RESULTS: Of 2417 women, 155 (6%) had endometrial malignancy or endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia. In women with endometrial cancer median age was 67 years (interquartile range [IQR] 56-75 years), median parity was 2 (IQR 0-10), and median BMI was 28 (IQR 25-32). Age, BMI, and parity produced an AUC of 0.82. Other variables marginally affected the AUC, adding endometrial thickness substantially increased the AUC in postmenopausal women. CONCLUSION: Age, parity, and BMI help in the assessment of endometrial cancer risk in women with abnormal uterine bleeding. Other patient information adds little, whereas sonographic endometrial thickness substantially improves assessment. ispartof: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GYNECOLOGY & OBSTETRICS vol:159 issue:1 pages:103-110 ispartof: location:United States status: published
