Abstract

This meta-analysis establishes a significant association between dyslipidemia and endometrial cancer risk, with elevated triglycerides and LDL-C conferring increased risk while HDL-C appears protective. These findings support the integration of lipid profiling into EC risk assessment protocols and suggest the potential preventive value of lipid-modulating interventions. Further studies are needed to establish causality and evaluate therapeutic applications.
