Endometriosis is a chronic systemic disease affecting ~10% of women, yet its genetic basis and molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Hence, here we conducted a genome-wide association study of endometriosis …
BackgroundEndometriosis is a hormone-driven systemic inflammatory condition characterized by endometrial-like lesions which grow throughout the body affecting up to 15% of women worldwide with symptoms including chronic pain, infertility, and …
To decrease the existing diagnostic delay of pelvic endometriosis, the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound (SRU) has proposed consensus criteria using augmented pelvic ultrasound (APU) technique and reporting guidelines based …
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) or carcinoid tumors are rare neoplasms originating from neuroendocrine cells, most commonly found in the appendix. While NETs are often asymptomatic, they may present with abdominal pain, …
The Ablative Technique Options for Preserving fertility in Endometrioma study is a prospective, monocentric clinical study that combines a randomised controlled trial comparing cystectomy and plasma vapourisation for endometriomas measuring …
Endometriomas are a frequent cause of infertility in reproductive-aged women, often requiring surgery. However, cystectomy for large endometriomas may reduce ovarian reserve, as indicated by decreased anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels. …
Each month, the endometrium is shed, regenerated, and transformed in response to changing hormone levels. These processes occur in a tightly regulated manner, and irregularities are linked with reproductive health …
This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the uterine sliding sign in routine pelvic ultrasound examinations for improving the diagnosis of deep endometriosis. A retrospective analysis was conducted at …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) has been implicated in immune dysregulation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and fibrosis. Data on baseline secretion of TGF-β isoforms …
