In 1999, Dr Susan Treloar and colleagues conducted a landmark twin study in Australia and reported their estimate of 51% for the heritability of endometriosis. This important result led several …
Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women, with a diagnostic delay of 7-10 years. Despite clinical heterogeneity, current rASRM staging poorly predicts treatment outcomes. Molecular subtyping may reveal biologically meaningful …
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 …
Accumulating observational evidence suggests an association between thyroid function and endometriosis, though the causal relationship remains unclear. To investigate potential bidirectional causal relationships, including for endometriosis subtypes, we conducted a …
Endometriosis is defined as endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. It is a debilitating, complex, and underdiagnosed condition, impacting approximately 10%-15% of reproductive-aged women worldwide. Endometriosis is associated with chronic …
Endometriosis is a chronic and debilitating gynecological disorder affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age worldwide (190 million), often leading to chronic pain, infertility, and considerable economic burden. Despite …
Can patient-derived organoid models be reliably established from diverse surgical phenotypes of endometriosis, and how do clinical factors such as hormonal treatment affect their growth success and morphology?
Endometriosis carries remarkable social, public health, and financial consequences. Based on two theories of retrograde menstruation and stem cells, menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) play a significant role in endometriosis …
Endometriosis is the growth of endometrial-like tissue at non-uterine locations, primarily within the peritoneal cavity. The disease can have diverse presentations with superficial lesions, deep invading lesions and ovarian cysts …
