The literature has indicated a high risk of breast cancer in patients with MetS. However, no studies have been conducted evaluating the relationship between breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL), one of the most frequently encountered postbreast cancer treatment conditions, and IR. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate whether there is a relationship between BCRL and IR.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 28 patients diagnosed with breast carcinoma were included in this preliminary study.

Body mass index (BMI), waist and hip circumference, and fasting blood glucose and blood insulin levels of all patients were recorded. The Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) test was used for the calculation of IR measurement with a value of 2.5 taken as an indicator of IR. Parameters were compared between groups. BMI, waist circumference measurements, blood insulin, and HOMA-IR levels were statistically significantly higher in the BCRL group than the control group (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      HOMA-IR values &gt;2.5 were found in 14 patients in the BCRL group.
