Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and focal adenomyosis of the outer myometrium (FAOM) are closely related chronic inflammatory conditions that often coexist. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index …
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are considered a first-line treatment for dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain). However, as much as 20% of women fail to achieve sufficient pain relief from NSAIDs, although factors …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic systemic inflammatory disease that affects 10 % of people assigned female at birth. Despite its prevalence, mean diagnostic delay is 4-11 years. Although much research …
Endometriosis and uterine leiomyomas are common chronic gynecologic diseases associated with immune dysregulation, inflammation and aberrant cellular proliferation, processes that contribute to increased oxidative stress. Current management relies largely on …
Orofacial pain (OFP) is a multidimensional clinical problem that includes conditions such as temporomandibular disorders (TMD). It is often associated with chronic overlapping pain conditions (COPCs), including gastrointestinal, gynecological and …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder marked by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth, resulting in pelvic pain, infertility, and significant declines in quality of life. Despite extensive research, current therapies …
We examined clinical, genetic, and molecular links between sleep disorders and endometriosis. Women aged 20-54 years in NHANES 2005-2006 were analyzed with survey-weighted logistic regression. Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) …
Endometriosis (EMs) is characterized by chronic pelvic inflammation, but the etiology of this inflammation remains poorly understood. The senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), whereby senescent cells secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines, is a …
Implantation failure remains a major challenge in assisted reproductive technology (ART) and is a significant contributor to infertility in women with endometriosis. Beyond mechanical distortion and ovarian dysfunction, increasing evidence …
The most common symptom of endometriosis is pain. The pathogenesis of endometriosis-associated pain remains unclear. In this review, we illustrate the pathogenesis of endometriosis-associated pain and the mechanisms of dienogest …
