Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic disease characterized by unclear etiology, influenced by various genetic and environmental factors, with no definitive biomarkers available for early screening. Recent studies suggest that the …
With each menstrual cycle, endometrial cells rapidly proliferate and decidualize in preparation for pregnancy. Such rapid proliferation generates replication stress and results in DNA damage with irreparable cells undergoing senescence. …
Endometriosis affects about 10% of reproductive-age women and can be managed through medical treatments, surgical intervention, or both. Approximately 40%-50% of patients experience recurrence within 5 years after surgery. Therefore, …
This study aimed to identify risk and protective factors for postoperative recurrence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). We analyzed 320 patients undergoing laparoscopic excision with ≥ 6 years follow-up at …
Thoracic endometriosis syndrome is a rare form of endometriosis in which endometrial tissue is thought to migrate to the lungs and, with the onset of menstruation, the ectopic foci bleed, …
This study aims to identify angiogenesis-associated genes (AAGs) in endometriosis (EM) by integrating bioinformatics analysis with machine learning, and to investigate their underlying mechanisms. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened …
While infections have been implicated in endometriosis pathogenesis, the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) remains unclear. This study combined a meta-analysis of seven studies with a case-control study ( n …
Ferroptosis is a novel kind of regulated cell death that occurs when redox equilibrium is disrupted, leading to iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis is defined by the buildup of deleterious lipid …
Dienogest (DNG) is widely used to manage endometriosis-associated pain; however, long-term data comparing low and standard doses are limited. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease, and hormonal treatment is the most common treatment. Both deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and ovarian endometrioma (OV) are characterized by dense surrounding fibrotic tissue. However, …
