Comparison of Endometrial Biomarkers in Control and RIF Subgroups According to Their Immune Profiles

Immune endometrial profile Control group RIF group
Normal Over activation P value (anova) Low activation P value (anova) Nodysregulation P value (anova)
Biomarkers Number of patient 26 223 (56.6%) 99 (25%) 72 (18.3%)
IL‐18/TWEAK Range of interpretation 0.03–0.12 >0.12 <0.03 0.03–0.12
Mean 0.076 0.40* 0.046 0.045** 0.002 0.07 0.33
IL‐15/Fn‐14 Range of interpretation 0.3–3 >3 <0.3 0.3–3
Mean 1.2 2.96* 0.039 0.47*** <0.001 1.27 0.75
CD56+ cells count Range of interpretation 10–100 >100 <10 10–100
Mean 45 49 0.64 32** 0.009 42 0.46

Norms for each biomarker were determined from a cohort of 26 fertile women. Data for each RIF subgroup were compared to data for the control group and analyzed with anova. A p‐value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.

* = P < 0.05, ** = P < 0.01, *** = P < 0.001.
