Endometriosis significantly impacts fertility through complex mechanisms. These include chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and anatomical distortion. These mechanisms impair oocyte quality, embryo development, and implantation. While in vivo challenges persist, …
This systematic review and meta-analysis (CRD42024588171) compared the effectiveness of surgery followed by IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) with direct IVF/ICSI (i.e. without previous surgery) on the reproductive outcomes of infertile …
Understanding experiences of care for endometriosis is an important source of evidence for supporting the improvement of care quality for this long-term condition. Patient-reported experience measures are a key tool …
Surgical intervention is the main treatment for endometriosis, and effective postoperative care is crucial for long-term health. This study examined the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of patients with endometriosis …
To analyse levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in follicular fluid in patients with endometrioma, and determine their effect on embryo quality and other relevant influencing factors in in-vitro fertilization …
Uterine fibroids and endometriosis are among the most common conditions encountered in gynaecological practice. Fibroids affect 30-70% of women, with up to half experiencing symptoms that significantly impair quality of …
Endometriosis is highly underdiagnosed and undertreated gynecological disorder, with diagnosis often delayed by 8-12 years. This delay can have serious consequences including infertility. Currently, the gold standard for endometriosis diagnosis …
Autophagy is a highly conserved eukaryotic process that degrades cytoplasmic material within lysosomes, and plays a crucial role in cellular development, function and homeostasis. Recent studies have increasingly revealed the …
Endometriosis is a chronic multisystem disease caused by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the endometrial canal, inciting inflammation and fibrosis. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and MRI have replaced diagnostic laparoscopy …
Endometriosis is a disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, leading to dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, dysuria, and infertility. The latter has been related to implantation …
