To investigate the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting and classifying adhesions between pelvic organs caused by endometriosis, comparing MRI findings to those obtained by laparoscopy.
Endometriosis is a prevalent condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing pain and infertility. Diagnosing endometriosis typically requires invasive procedures like laparoscopy. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) …
Deep infiltrative endometriosis (DIE) is characterized by the infiltration of endometrial tissue into the pelvic organs, such as the rectovaginal septum, utero-ovarian, and uterosacral ligaments. Bowel involvement occurs in approximately …
A 44-year-old woman with biopsy-proven endometriosis underwent 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT. MRI revealed bilateral ovarian endometriomas, uterine adenomyosis, and deep pelvic endometriotic lesions. FAPI PET/CT demonstrated concordant uptake in deep infiltrating lesions …
Emerging evidence suggests a genetic link between immune-related diseases and Alzheimer's disease (AD), though the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This Mendelian randomization (MR) study investigates the genetic relationship between six …
Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial tissue and chronic inflammation. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic potential of the Casein kinase 1 …
Endometriosis-associated pain has debilitating effects on the quality of life of patients. Despite its high prevalence in reproductive-aged women, the pathophysiology is still unknown, impeding the development of targeted treatment …
Endometriosis is a complex and challenging medical condition characterized by endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. MRI plays a crucial role in characterizing lesions and assessing disease. Radiologists must be …
This study investigates the role of allograft inflammatory factor 1 (AIF-1) in regulating the proliferation, invasion, and migration of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) in the context of endometriosis, focusing on …
Endometriosis is a mysterious disease that affects 5 %-10 % of the women of reproductive age. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a type of noncoding RNA, are involved in its progression, yet …
