Table 2. Pearson's correlation coefficients between the various hormone levels in the entire study population (endometrial cancer cases and control women).
INSULIN (ng ml−1) | IGFBP-1 (ng ml−1) | IGF-I (ng ml−1) | |
---|---|---|---|
IGFBP-1 (ng ml−1) | −0.22 | 1.0 | |
IGF-I (ng ml−1) | 0.04 | −0.09 | 1.0 |
IGFBP-3 (ng ml−1) | 0.09 | −0.18 | 0.35 |
The correlation coefficients calculated separately for endometrial cancer cases and control women were not substantially different from the coefficients presented above (cases and controls together).
