Decidualization of endometrial stromal cells involves significant morphological and functional changes in which alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression decreases. Meflin, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, suppresses αSMA expression and inhibits fibrosis in …
The aim of this study was to examine changes in resting electroencephalography (EEG) activity associated with an 8-week acupuncture intervention for women with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a severe subtype of endometriosis, often associated with dysmenorrhea and significant diagnostic challenges. Conventional biomarkers, such as cancer antigen 125 (CA125), lack sufficient specificity for …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory gynecologic disorder associated with pelvic pain and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have anti-inflammatory potential and may confer adjunctive …
Endometriosis, an atypical benign disorder, may disrupt epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) due to a dysregulated balance between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors. Ramipril, an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, is …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic condition primarily characterized by pain and infertility, significantly affecting the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of patients. The primary goal of EMS treatment is to …
Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent gynecological disease manifested by cyclic pelvic pain and female infertility. Although many studies have shown that neoangiogenesis plays an essential role in the development of early …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting up to 10% of reproductive-aged women. Current therapies are predominantly hormone-based and offer symptomatic relief without correcting the immune dysregulation and inflammation …
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a well-established etiological agent for cervical cancer, yet its contribution to endometrial malignancies remains underrecognized and mechanistically distinct. This paper synthesizes current evidence to explain the …
Patients with endometriosis undergoing surgery are at risk of moderate-to-severe postoperative pain. Clonidine, an alpha-2 agonist with analgesic properties, may improve multimodal pain management in these patients.
