Imaging is increasingly used for adult endometriosis, but evidence supporting adolescent imaging approaches remains unclear. This scoping review mapped evidence on imaging-based diagnosis of endometriosis in adolescents and young people, …
Background: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder with limited treatment options. The precise molecular targets of curcumin and its effects on local estrogen synthesis in this disease remain unclear. Methods: We …
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 …
Chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) encompasses a heterogeneous group of debilitating conditions including interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), chronic abacterial prostatitis, endometriosis, and pelvic congestion syndrome, among others. Despite advances …
While endometriosis is thought to be a heterogeneous disease, the pathophysiologic heterogeneity across the three visualized lesion macrophenotypes (i.e., superficial peritoneal endometriosis(SPE) lesions, endometriomas, and deep lesions) remains unclear.
Endometriosis (EMs) is characterized by the establishment and persistence of ectopic lesions, a process fundamentally dependent on aberrant angiogenesis. Endothelial cells (ECs) play a central role in this process; however, …
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 …
To apply an MR-PheWAS to infer causality between NSW and multiple health outcomes.
Background and Objectives: Superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE) remains one of the most difficult endometriosis phenotypes to diagnose non-invasively, because lesions are frequently small, multifocal, and poorly detectable using conventional imaging. …
To investigate, using transvaginal ultrasound imaging, the overlap between polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) and endometriosis, and to explore demographic and clinical factors associated with their coexistence across endometriosis phenotypes.
