Growing evidence highlights the role of microbiota, including those of the gut, reproductive tract, and endometrial tissue, as critical functional drivers in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM). Studies have revealed …
Umbilical endometriosis, also known as Villar's nodule, is an atypical manifestation of endometriosis. We present a rare case of spontaneous Villar's nodule in a young, nulliparous woman with no history …
Endometriosis is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory disorder associated with substantial diagnostic delay and limited therapeutic options, highlighting the need of robust non-invasive biomarkers and actionable molecular targets to complement existing …
The uterine cavity was formerly considered sterile; however, over recent years, researchers have identified the presence of endometrial microbiota. An imbalance in the endometrial microbiota, or dysbiosis, has been shown …
Gynecologic disorders, including infections, sterile inflammatory diseases, endocrine abnormalities, and malignancies, share a common signature of dysregulated immunity within a uniquely hormone-responsive reproductive tract. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are increasingly …
Cystic adenomyoma is a rare focal cystic variant of adenomyosis, and giant lesions are particularly uncommon. Malignant transformation has been reported in endometriosis-related disease, but the molecular features of cystic …
For a very long time, herbal treatments have served as remedies for various humans and animals. Natural compounds typically have multiple pharmacological actions because they interact with various biological targets. …
Ovarian endometrioma (OMA), the most prevalent and clinically consequential subtype of endometriosis, represents a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by ectopic endometrial-like lesions. This condition manifests as progressive dysmenorrhea, ovarian reserve …
We conducted a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study of endometriosis and adenomyosis in almost 1.4 million women, including 105,869 cases, aiming to expand endometriosis loci discovery across ancestries, dissect symptom-specific effects, …
Endometriosis is a medical condition where endometrial tissue and glands are found outside the uterine cavity: on ovaries, pelvic peritoneum, rectovaginal septum, bladder, bowel and more. The ectopic tissue is …
