Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of uterine volume for intrauterine adhesion (IUA) caused by endometrial injury, and to provide a new perspective for the primary prevention of IUA.Methods:The clinical data of 7 007 patients of reproductive age who underwent outpatient hysteroscopy in the Gynecological Minimally Invasive Center, Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from June 2018 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients of reproductive age with IUA without uterine fibroids and adenomyosis were selected as the IUA group (351 cases), and patients of reproductive age without uterine fibroids and adenomyosis and without IUA during the same period were selected as the control group (2 986 cases). The uterine volume was compared between the two groups. Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine whether uterine volume was an independent factor for the occurrence of IUA. Ordinal multinomial logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between uterine volume and menstrual volume in IUA patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of uterine volume for IUA caused by endometrial injury.Results:(1) The uterine volume of the IUA group was significantly smaller than that of the control group (median: 44.15 vs 62.59 cm 3; Z=-15.742, P<0.001). (2) Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that decreased uterine volume was an independent risk factor for IUA ( OR=0.184, 95% CI: 0.139-0.245; P<0.001). (3) The area under the ROC curve of uterine volume to predict IUA was 0.756, and the optimal cut-off value of uterine volume to predict IUA was 51.49 cm 3. (4) The risk of IUA caused by endometrial injury in patients with uterine volume≤51.49 cm 3 was 4.658 times higher than that in patients with uterine volume>51.49 cm 3 (95% CI: 3.681-5.893; P<0.001). (5) The smaller the uterine volume ( β=-0.032, 95% CI:-0.046 to -0.018; P<0.001), the more likely the IUA patients were to have menorrhagia and amenorrhea. Conclusions:Uterine volume has a certain predictive value for the occurrence of IUA caused by endometrial injury. For patients with small uterine volume, it is necessary to be alert to the occurrence of IUA caused by endometrial injury and improve the awareness of primary prevention.
