Endometriosis, a chronic gynecological disorder, is clinically associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis. While this link has been primarily attributed to hypoestrogenism resulting from the disease process or its …
Endometriosis is an inflammatory estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by pain, dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. This is due to the invasion of different organs by endometrial tissue that causes inflammation, angiogenesis, and …
A mural solid component (SC) within an endometrioma (ovarian endometriotic cyst), demonstrating internal vascularity or increased fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake on positron emission tomography (PET), is considered a characteristic finding suggestive …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) …
Endometriosis is traditionally conceptualized as a pelvic lesion-centered disease; however, mounting evidence indicates it is a chronic, systemic, and multifactorial inflammatory disorder. This review examines the molecular dialog between ectopic …
Chronic low-grade inflammation is increasingly recognized as a contributing factor to female infertility. Elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 are observed in ovarian conditions including …
The study aimed to investigate the roles of endothelin-1 and endothelin receptors in a rat endometriosis model and to demonstrate how bosentan (BOS), an endothelin receptor blocker, could potentially serve …
Plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) increase during acute myocardial infarction (MI), correlate with myocardial injury, and mobilize immune cells from the spleen to the circulation. These cells are transcriptionally activated even …
To what extent have fertility preservation interventions evolved between 2014 and 2023, and what factors have influenced changes in their utilization and prevalence?
Fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET is an emerging molecular imaging modality that is widely used in oncology and increasingly investigated in nononcologic diseases. Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a …
