Endometriosis is challenging to diagnose due to its nonspecific symptoms and the lack of reliable non-invasive methods. This study evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of Endotest©, a salivary microRNA test, by …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder associated with pelvic pain, infertility, repeated treatment, and impaired quality of life. Thyroid dysfunction and thyroid autoimmunity are also common in reproductive-aged women and …
Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting 10% of reproductive-age women, with up to 50% experiencing infertility. As primary care providers (PCPs) are often the first point of care, …
Adult stem cells are thought to drive the regenerative potential of the endometrium and contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis; however, their identity and defining features remain to be characterized. …
To perform a head-to-head comparison of the diagnostic performance of ultrasonography (US) vs magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the preoperative detection of endometriosis using the #Enzian classification system.
To evaluate whether preoperative clinical Enzian scoring and digital rectal examination improve accuracy of operative time prediction and surgical outcomes in women undergoing surgery for endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a heterogeneous inflammatory condition that may influence long-term metabolic health. Prior studies have reported largely null associations with type 2 diabetes, potentially missing subtype-specific and subgroup heterogeneity. We …
Abdominal wall endometriosis most commonly occurs in cesarean section (CS) scars. Although malignant transformation is rare, clear cell carcinoma (CCC) is the most commonly reported histological subtype. We present an …
Endometriosis is characterized by inflammation and fibrosis, in which cytokines and cytokine-macrophage interactions serve as critical mediators. However, the specific mechanisms that initiate the fibrotic cascade in endometriosis remain poorly …
Recurrent hemorrhagic pleural effusion presents as a challenge for both the clinician and the patient, with common causes being tuberculosis, malignancy, and collagen vascular diseases. Among uncommon causes of recurrent …
