Healthcare Professionals' Experiences of Telemedicine Supporting Outpatient Endometriosis Care: A Qualitative Study of Tele-Patient-Reported Outcome Measures.

Telemedicine may advance endometriosis care, but few initiatives are integrated in outpatient follow-up. A novel telemedicine approach-tele-patient-reported outcome measures (telePROM)-includes an endometriosis-specific questionnaire and phone and video consultations combined with …

Ultrasound-Guided Diagnosis and Treatment of Postsurgical Peripheral Nerve Entrapment in Persistent Pelvic Pain.

Postsurgical peripheral neuropathic pain may be overlooked in patients with chronic pelvic and inguinal pain when overlapping etiologies coexist. This case report describes an ultrasound-guided diagnostic and therapeutic approach for …

Diagnostic laparoscopy should not be used to establish the diagnosis of endometriosis: the need for standardized preoperative mapping in adolescents.

Single-cell profiling and machine learning identify cuproptosis-related fibroblast subpopulations and fibrogenesis modulator AEBP1 in endometriosis.

Endometriosis is characterized by progressive fibrosis and limited therapeutic options. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death, has been implicated in multiple pathological conditions, but its relevance to fibroblast-mediated …

Rates of Premature Ovarian Insufficiency and Surgical Menopause in Patients with Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic disorder that affects approximately 10% of reproductive aged women and can have wide-ranging detrimental effects. While endometriosis is known to be associated with early menopause, the …

Clinical challenges and therapeutic strategies in women with endometriosis, deep infiltrating endometriosis, and/or adenomyosis undergoing assisted reproductive technologies: a narrative review.

This narrative review explores contemporary therapeutic options and critically assesses surgical results and in vitro fertilization-intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) outcomes in women affected by endometriosis, deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and/or …

Cancer-like Hallmarks of Endometriosis: The Role of Estrogen Signaling and Stem Cell Plasticity.

Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and characterized by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth. Although traditionally considered a benign gynecological condition, increasing …

Endometriosis and ovarian cancer: epidemiological evidence, molecular insights, and clinical decision-making.

Endometriosis, particularly ovarian endometrioma, is associated with a 2-fold increased risk of ovarian cancer (OC), especially the clear cell and endometrioid subtypes. However, the absolute lifetime risk of OC in …

Nuclear factor IX promotes endometriosis progression through transcriptional activation of tetraspanin-2.

Endometriosis is a benign yet aggressive disease characterized by enhanced proliferation and invasion of ectopic endometrial tissue. Identifying upstream regulators that co-regulate these processes will provide novel insights into endometriosis …

Unraveling the significance of decorin in endometriosis development through single cell sequencing and experimental approaches.

A link exists between decorin (DCN) and endometriosis, nevertheless, the role of DCN in this condition remains unclear. This study aims to bioinformatically characterize DCN expression, diagnostic value, and related …
