Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease presenting with debilitating symptoms strongly impacting patients' quality of life (QoL). Assessing QoL is crucial for understanding the full patient experience beyond clinical symptoms. …
To develop a predictive risk score for superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE) in patients with negative examination and imaging based on symptoms and quality of life measures DESIGN: Multicenter nested case-control …
This case-control study investigated whether ovarian endometriosis is associated with altered estrogen metabolism and gut or urogenital microbiota by analyzing enzyme activity, bacterial composition, and variations of estrogen metabolites in …
Spontaneous preterm labor (SPL) is a significant obstetric concern, and recent literature suggests an association with adenomyosis. In this study, we compared adenomyosis and endomyometrial junctional zone (JZ) in women …
