Nutrition and endometriosis: evidence, limits and clinical perspectives.

Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease frequently associated with gastrointestinal symptoms, metabolic comorbidities, and impaired quality of life. Growing interest in nutrition has led to the widespread dissemination of …

Epigenetic Mechanisms of Reproductive Dysfunction Induced by Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals: Evidence From Molecular Studies.

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), including bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, organochlorine pesticides, and heavy metal ions, pose serious threats to reproductive health by interfering with hormonal balance and molecular signaling pathways. Recent …

Drospirenone promotes apoptosis in ectopic but inhibits proliferation in eutopic human endometrial stromal cells.

Endometriosis is a complex gynecological condition characterized by endometrial tissue growing outside the uterus. In many in vitro studies, almost all progestins have indicated the anti-proliferation and apoptosis of endometriotic …

Attenuated Cyclooxygenase-Mediated Vasodilation in Cutaneous Microvasculature with No Difference in Platelet Aggregation in Women with Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a systemic inflammatory disease known to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The inducible form of cyclooxygenase (COX), COX-2, is an inflammatory enzyme upregulated in endometriosis with COX …

Corrigendum to "Decreased expression of KLF6 in ectopic endometrial stromal cells contributes to endometriosis progression by targeting CTNNB1" [Cellular Signalling 120 (2024) 111230].

Oral diclofenac potassium and intramuscular hyoscine-n-butyl bromide versus oral diclofenac potassium alone for pain relief during hysterosalpingography: a double blind randomized controlled trial.

Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is an important diagnostic tool in infertility, often associated with pain and tubal spasms, potentially resulting in false proximal tubal occlusions. This randomised controlled trial compared oral diclofenac …

Repurposing ramipril to mitigate EMT-like transition in endometriosis by PI3K/AKT/S6K1 signalling pathway: a study in endometriosis induced rats.

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 …

Maternal endometriosis: An independent risk factor for long-term infectious morbidity of the offspring.

Endometriosis, a debilitating disease characterized by chronic inflammation, might be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, the long-term health implications for offspring born to mothers with endometriosis remain inadequately explored. …

Developing a Trauma-Informed Social Media Campaign to Disseminate Endometriosis-Specific Qualitative Art-Based Research Findings: Tutorial.

Trauma-informed approaches can promote the creation of systems that prioritize safety and empowerment to improve patient well-being. These approaches are especially important in sexual and reproductive health care, where patients …

Development and validation of a Chinese version of the EHP-30 for EMS patients: Assessing quality of life and informing targeted interventions.

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 …
