Association between cardiometabolic Index (CMI) and endometriosis: a cross-sectional study on NHANES
The study found that CMI levels are closely correlated with endometriosis, with this correlation increasing when the CMI exceeds 0.67. This finding implies that by regularly monitoring CMI levels, physicians may be able to screen women at risk for endometriosis at an earlier stage, thereby enabling the implementation of early interventions to slow the progression of the disease. To further validate these findings, larger-scale cohort studies are required to support the results of this research.
