Abstract

Background: This case-control study aimed to examine the association between the frequency of potentially risky beverage consumption, levels of anxiety, and the prevalence of endometrial polyps.

Methods: A total of 418 participants were enrolled in the study, comprising 206 cases and 212 controls. The case group consisted of patients who visited the gynecological clinic at the Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and were diagnosed with endometrial polyps (Eps) based on international diagnostic criteria. The control group consisted of women of childbearing age who visited the gynecological clinic with similar clinical symptoms but did not have EPs. Basic information, consumption of potentially risky beverages (PRB), and anxiety levels for both groups were collected through a questionnaire survey. Finally, the relationship between the frequency of PRB consumption, anxiety levels, and the prevalence of EPs was evaluated.

Results: In this study, we identified a significant positive association between the consumption of PRB and the prevalence of EPs. PRB intake was categorized into three groups based on the cumulative total score: 5-8 for the Low potentially risky beverages (LPRB) intake group, 9-12 for the medium potentially risky beverages (MPRB) intake group, and 13-21 for the high potentially risky beverages (HPRB) intake group. The results revealed that PRB consumption frequency was significantly associated with EPs (OR: 2.348, 95% CI: 1.153-4.78), with higher PRB intake correlating with an increased risk of EPs (p-value: 0.014). However, no significant difference was observed between the LPRB, MPRB, HPRB intake frequency groups and the different levels of anxiety (p-value: 0.793).

Conclusion: Increased consumption of PRB was clearly associated with a greater risk of EPs, and over half of the participants exhibited varying degrees of anxiety. These findings suggest that the risk of EPs can be mitigated by controlling beverage intake and highlight the need for increased attention to women's mental health.

摄入潜在危险饮料与子宫内膜息肉发生之间的关系：一项病例对照研究。

背景：本病例对照研究旨在研究潜在危险饮料饮用频率、焦虑水平和子宫内膜息肉患病率之间的关系。方法：共纳入418名受试者，其中病例206例，对照组212例。病例组为在成都中医药大学附属医院妇科门诊就诊并根据国际诊断标准诊断为子宫内膜息肉（Eps）的患者。对照组为到妇科就诊的育龄妇女，临床症状相似，但无EPs。通过问卷调查收集两组的基本信息、潜在危险饮料的消费（PRB）和焦虑水平。最后，评估PRB消费频率、焦虑水平和EPs患病率之间的关系。结果：在这项研究中，我们确定了PRB的消耗与EPs患病率之间的显著正相关。根据累积总分将PRB摄入分为三组：低潜在风险饮料（LPRB）摄入组5-8分，中等潜在风险饮料（MPRB）摄入组9-12分，高潜在风险饮料（HPRB）摄入组13-21分。结果显示，PRB摄入频率与EPs显著相关（OR: 2.348, 95% CI: 1.153-4.78），较高的PRB摄入量与EPs风险增加相关（p值：0.014）。然而，LPRB、MPRB、HPRB摄入频率组与不同焦虑水平之间无显著差异（p值：0.793）。结论：PRB摄入量的增加与EPs风险的增加明显相关，超过一半的参与者表现出不同程度的焦虑。这些发现表明，EPs的风险可以通过控制饮料摄入量来减轻，并强调需要更多地关注女性的心理健康。临床试验注册：NCT06295510。

期刊介绍： No subject pertains more to human life than nutrition. The aim of Frontiers in Nutrition is to integrate major scientific disciplines in this vast field in order to address the most relevant and pertinent questions and developments. Our ambition is to create an integrated podium based on original research, clinical trials, and contemporary reviews to build a reputable knowledge forum in the domains of human health, dietary behaviors, agronomy & 21st century food science. Through the recognized open-access Frontiers platform we welcome manuscripts to our dedicated sections relating to different areas in the field of nutrition with a focus on human health. Specialty sections in Frontiers in Nutrition include, for example, Clinical Nutrition, Nutrition & Sustainable Diets, Nutrition and Food Science Technology, Nutrition Methodology, Sport & Exercise Nutrition, Food Chemistry, and Nutritional Immunology. Based on the publication of rigorous scientific research, we thrive to achieve a visible impact on the global nutrition agenda addressing the grand challenges of our time, including obesity, malnutrition, hunger, food waste, sustainability and consumer health.
