The adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signalling pathway regulates cell metabolism, inflammation and the immune response. This signalling pathway is essential for maintaining reproductive homeostasis and influencing steroidogenesis, implantation, …
A case is reported of endometriosis present in several areas of the small intestine, successfully treated by excision using the conservative technique of shaving the intestinal wall. A 30-year-old woman …
Immunological factors appear to play an important role in the development of endometriosis, as evidenced by the aberrant functioning of immune cells often observed in affected women. Although endometriosis is …
Background: Vitamin D has anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties that may influence the pathophysiology of endometriosis. This study investigated the association between vitamin D levels and endometriosis, and vitamin D receptor …
This case report underscores the crucial role of imaging and radiology in the timely diagnosis of a rare but serious complication associated with assisted reproductive technology (ART). A 34-year-old woman …
Endometriosis and endometrial polyps are oestrogen-dependent conditions that frequently co-occur, yet their combined prevalence remains unclear. This study synthesized data on the prevalence of endometrial polyps in women with endometriosis …
The Ras homolog gene family member A (RhoA) is a small GTPase. RhoA plays major roles in cytoskeletal regulation, transcriptional control, and cell cycle maintenance. RhoA is widely expressed in …
Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) are at an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), which is compounded in the presence of other risk factors such as primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) …
Managing complex chronic illness is challenging due to its unpredictability. This paper explores the potential of voice for automated flare-up forecasts. We conducted a six-week speculative design study with individuals …
Existing evidence shows the importance of circulating cytokines in studying female reproductive system dysfunction. Endometriosis (EM) is thought to be associated with multiple immune cytokines, but its causality has not …
