To evaluate the effects of a combined programme of therapeutic exercise (TE) and pain neurophysiology education (PNE) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), abdominal wall muscle thickness, menstrual symptoms and …
Background: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder associated with pain and immune dysregulation. Omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids and fish-derived bioactive lipids may modulate inflammation and metabolism. This study investigated …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterised by ectopic endometrial tissue, progressive fibrosis and chronic pain, with a pathogenesis that goes beyond oestrogen dependence. The central question this review seeks …
The human microbiome, a dynamic endocrine organ, exerts profound systemic influence through the production of bioactive metabolites. While the microbiome-gut-brain axis is well-established, the direct conduit between the gut microbiota …
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality in women, yet sex-specific risk factors are usually not included in conventional predictive models. Specifically, heart failure (HF) in women may …
To evaluate central arterial stiffness, endothelial function, and circulating vascular biomarkers in women with ovarian endometriosis and to explore their associations compared with age-matched controls.
Bowel involvement is a severe manifestation of deep endometriosis that affects approximately 8-12% of women with endometriosis. Bowel endometriosis is most commonly localised in the rectosigmoid colon and frequently coexists …
Endometriosis is sustained by ectopic endometrial implants that remain proliferative and vascularized, making endocrine modulation a cornerstone of therapy. Estetrol (E4) an endogenous estrogen produced during pregnancy, with selective tissue …
Postoperative recurrence remains a major obstacle to durable remission in patients with solid tumors, even after complete macroscopic resection. Growing evidence suggests that surgery creates a transient yet highly permissive …
Adolescent endometriosis (EMs) imposes substantial physical and psychological burdens on young female patients, and adaptive coping strategies are vital for their health management. This study aimed to explore the latent …
