The rate of implantation of endometrial tissue onto the appendix varies greatly within the literature with appendiceal intussusception being a rare clinical presentation in this small subset of patients. Here …
Personal care products (PCPs) may contain endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that can impact menstrual health. Despite widespread usage, little is known about the associations of PCP usage, EDC avoidance, and menstrual …
Endometriosis is characterized by enhanced cellular proliferation, migration, and resistance to apoptosis, contributing to lesion persistence and progression. Targeting cellular plasticity and mesenchymal-associated functions may therefore represent a promising therapeutic …
Epigenetic mechanisms, particularly the roles of DNA methylation and microRNAs, are increasingly recognized in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. DNA methyltransferase 3 (DNMT3) alpha, an important DNA methyltransferase, and miR-29b, a …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a common gynecological disease that seriously affects women's health and quality of life. However, the detailed dynamic cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying EMS pathogenesis remain largely unknown. …
To determine the prevalence of pathology-proven endometriosis in patients with suspected adenomyosis undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH).
Background/Objectives: The diagnosis of endometriosis (EM) remains challenging due to the lack of a perfect diagnostic standard and the poor concordance between clinical symptoms and lesion severity. Although laparoscopy is …
Adenomyosis is a prevalent disorder of the archimetra, historically conflated with endometriosis but possessing a unique pathobiological trajectory. This review synthesises current molecular evidence to propose a unified mechanistic framework …
Previous studies in endometriosis have linked the experience and impact of pain to psychological distress and sexual dysfunction. However, little is known about how these factors interact over time or …
Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a calcium-dependent protein with high affinity for phospholipids, and its multifunctional nature has drawn increasing attention in the onset and progression of various disorders of the …
