Factors released from the human placentae, including extracellular vesicles, reduce the migration of endometriotic cells: A potential therapeutic for endometriosis.
Endometriosis is characterised by the growth of abnormal endometrial tissue outside the uterus and chronic inflammation. Increasing evidence suggests that placenta extracellular vesicles (EVs) inhibit the growth and migration of …
Accessory cavitated uterine mass presenting as refractory dysmenorrhoea: a diagnostic challenge.
A woman in her 20s presented with severe progressive dysmenorrhoea that began within 1-2 years of menarche, was refractory to medical therapy and required repeated emergency department visits for parenteral …
Early life trauma and endometriosis: A case-control study on type and timing of adverse experiences.
Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammatory gynaecological condition characterised by the abnormal presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Different risk factors for endometriosis have been proposed, with some research …
Ultrasound Sliding Sign Assessed by Transvaginal or Transrectal Route for Predicting Complete Pouch of Douglas Obliteration in Patients with Ovarian Endometriomas: An Exploratory Retrospective Study.
Background and Objective: The ultrasound sliding sign dynamically assesses pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration in suspected endometriosis. Transvaginal (TVS) and transrectal (TRS) ultrasound are used in patients with and without …
Phytochemicals Modulating Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Signaling Networks in Endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition that is marked by the growth of lesions outside the uterus, along with angiogenesis, fibrosis, immune dysregulation, and pain sensitization. There is now …
