The role of monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio in prediction of increased systemic inflammation and the risk of cardiovascular disease in endometriosis

Endometriosis occurs in about 5-10 100 women of reproductive age. The pathophysiology endometriosis is controversial. Some studies claimed an association between and increased levels inflammatory factors peritoneal fluid and/or peripheral blood. Monocyte / HDL cholesterol ratio (MHR) neutrophil/lymphocyte (NLR) are markers used as predictors prognostic indicators mortality morbidity many diseases. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether patients with chronic inflammation cardiovascular This a retrospective case-control study conducted 87 women, 45 the group 42 control group. demographic data, biochemical, complete blood count parameters lipid profile cases were recorded compared groups. mean age was 33.88 years older than terms other there no difference two Although platelet distribution width triglyceride values higher controls, they interpreted clinically insignificant.
