简要总结
The investigators hypothesize that endometrial thickness will be a significant predictor of endometrial hyperplasia in a postmenopausal female population with metabolic syndrome: diabetes and/or insulin resistance, hypertension, and obesity.
详细描述
The objective is to identify the utility of ultrasound as a screening test for endometrial hyperplasia and cancer in an "at risk" cohort. Endometrial carcinoma is an understudied cancer. This study will provide benefit regardless of its outcome, because it will be the first prospectively designed screening trial in an asymptomatic population.

主要结局
Endometrial Hyperplasia
时间窗: End of study
A transvaginal ultrasound of the endometrium will be performed to obtain measures of the anteroposterior endometrial thickness (in the sagittal plane), the dimensions of the endometrial cavity (thickness, length and width), and the appearance of the endometrium in addition to uterine and ovarian measures. Endometrial thickness will be a significant predictor of endometrial hyperplasia in a postmenopausal female population with the metabolic syndrome: diabetes and/or insulin resistance, hypertension, and obesity.
