Histomorphometric characterization of the endometrium in mules (Equus mulus): An approach to endometritis/endometrosis.

Mules (Equus mulus), as sterile hybrids between mares and donkeys, present a unique uterine morphology and physiology that remains poorly characterized. This study provides the first histomorphometric evaluation and transcriptional …

ZMIZ1 and estrogen receptor α form an essential partnership in endometrial biology.

Estrogen receptor α (ESR1) is a pivotal regulator of endometrial homeostasis and reproductive function, yet the coregulators that fine tune its transcriptional activity remain incompletely defined. In this issue of …

Transcriptional coregulator ZMIZ1 modulates estrogen responses that are essential for healthy endometrial function.

Estrogen is a critical regulator of endometrial health. Aberrant estrogen stimulation can result in infertility, endometrial cancer, and endometriosis. Here, we identified Zinc Finger MIZ-Type Containing 1 (Zmiz1) as a …

Racial and Ethnic Inequities in Rates of Diagnostic Laparoscopy for Evaluation of Endometriosis in Adolescents with Pelvic Pain: a Retrospective Cohort Study.

Endometriosis often presents in adolescence as chronic pelvic pain (CPP) or dysmenorrhea. Research in adults demonstrates non-White race is associated with delayed surgical diagnosis of endometriosis; however, inequity in adolescents …

The value of 4-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography in predicting the possibility of spontaneous conception in infertile women.

Some infertile women can undergo spontaneous conception after 4-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (4D-HyCoSy). However, advised period of expectant management after HyCoSy for different tubal patency was rarely recorded. This study aimed …

Is endometriosis staging related to the type and intensity of patients' complaints? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

To evaluate the association between the endometriosis staging and the type and intensity of pain reported by patients, describing the pain intensity across different pain types.

Biochemical Heterogeneity of Endometriosis Phenotypes Revealed by FTIR Analysis.

Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to investigate molecular differences among peritoneal, ovarian, bowel endometriosis phenotypes and control tissues. Peritoneal lesions showed the most pronounced spectral changes in CH-stretching (2800-3000 …

Uterine artery S/D ratio and serum CA125 as predictors of early pregnancy loss in women with ovarian endometriomas: a retrospective case-control study.

Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and is associated with increased risks of infertility and miscarriage. Although the spontaneous miscarriage rate in women with endometriosis is higher …
