Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that leads to pelvic pain and infertility. Recent studies have indicated that immunological, endocrine, biochemical, and genetic irregularities, along with suboptimal quality of oocytes, …
This study aims to assess whether endometriosis causally increases the risk of IBD through Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis and to elucidate potential mechanisms using in vitro experiments. A two-sample Mendelian …
Bladder endometriosis (BE) is an uncommon form of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). This report aims to present two cases of BE with markedly contrasting clinical histories and presentations to highlight …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with a prevalence of approximately 10% in women of childbearing age. Metabolic pathways have been demonstrated by previous studies to be potential avenues for …
To assess the intermodality agreement between transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of deep pelvic endometriosis (DE), using a compartment-based framework that includes both classical …
Cesarean scar endometriosis is a rare form of endometriosis characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue within a surgical scar. Diagnosing this condition is challenging, as it is frequently …
While epidemiological studies have associated endometriosis with ovarian cancer risk, the causal relationships across anatomic subtypes and histotypes remain undefined. Using two-sample Mendelian randomization with 84 genetic instruments (F-statistic = …
Background: Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a rare but debilitating condition, often occurring in surgical scars after Caesarean sections. It is characterized by cyclic pain and a palpable mass, significantly …
In mammals, insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) and its cognate receptor (RXFP2) are reported to be essential regulators of male reproductive physiology. It is also believed that INSL3/RXFP2 signaling has a …
