RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer in developed countries, with a majority of cases being low-grade endometrioid endometrial cancer. Identifying risk factors for disease recurrence and poor prognosis is critical. This study aimed to assess the correlation between preoperative cancer antigen-125 levels and disease recurrence in early-stage endometrioid endometrial cancer patients. METHODS: The study was a retrospective analysis of 217 patients diagnosed with endometrioid endometrial cancer who underwent surgical treatment at a university-affiliated tertiary hospital between 2016 and 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on their preoperative cancer antigen-125 levels and compared with clinicopathological findings and disease recurrence. Disease-free survival rates were calculated, and logistic regression analysis was performed to determine independent factors affecting disease-free survival. RESULTS: The mean age of patients was 61.59±0.75 years, and the mean follow-up time was 36.95±1.18 months. The mean cancer antigen-125 level was 27.80±37.81 IU/mL. The recurrence rate was significantly higher in the group with elevated cancer antigen-125 levels (p=0.025). Disease-free survival was lower in patients with elevated cancer antigen-125 compared with those with normal levels (p=0.005). Logistic regression analysis revealed that elevated cancer antigen-125 levels were associated with disease recurrence (OR: 3.43, 95%CI 1.13-10.37, p=0.029). CONCLUSION: The findings of this study suggest that preoperative cancer antigen-125 levels can be used as a predictor of disease recurrence in early-stage endometrioid endometrial cancer patients. cancer antigen-125 levels may be a useful tool for risk stratification and patient management in endometrial cancer.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between maternal subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk. METHODS: This study is a systematic review and meta-analysis. Following PubMed, Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar database search up to April 1 2021, a total of 4597 studies were identified. Studies published in English, with full text available, related to subclinical hypothyroidism in pregnancy, reporting or mentioning the incidence of GDM were included in the analysis. Following exclusion of studies, a total of 16 clinical trial were analyzed. For the risk of GDM, odds ratios (ORs) were calculated. Subgroup analyzes were performed according to gestational age and thyroid antibodies. RESULTS: Pregnant women with SCH were at increased risk of GDM compared to women with euthyroidism, overall (OR = 1.339, 95% CI 1.041-1.724; p = 0.023). Additionally, SCH without thyroid antibodies has no significant effect on GDM risk (OR = 1.173, 95% CI 0.88-1.56; p = 0.277) and pregnant women with SCH in the first trimester were not found to be at increased risk of GDM compared to women with euthyroidism regardless of thyroid antibodies (OR = 1.088, 95%CI 0.816-1.451; p = 0.564). CONCLUSIONS: Maternal SCH in pregnancy is related to an increased risk of GDM.
