Can a large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis identify genomic risk loci and likely involved genes for female genital tract (FGT) polyps, provide insights into the biological mechanism underlying their …
Serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) levels are an increasingly employed tool for the assessment of active axonal injury in a variety of neurological disorders including polyneuropathy. Injury to the small …
Endometrial cysts of the ovary (EMC) may develop into endometriosis (EM)‑associated ovarian cancer over time (EAOC), but the pathogenesis of this disease has not been determined. In the present study, …
Neoangiogenesis is necessary for adhesion and invasion of endometriotic lesions. We hypothesize that by blocking angiogenetic pathways we can suppress endometriosis. Oral contraceptive pills (OCs) are routinely used in endometriosis …
The relationship between poverty and tuberculosis (TB) is well-documented, as socio-economic deprivation constitutes a risk factor that drives TB transmission and progression while hindering treatment adherence. Despite the importance of …
Endometriosis appears to have a multilayered etiology, with genetic and epigenetic factors each contributing half of the pathogenesis. The molecular processes that underlie the onset of endometriosis are yet unclear, …
As a complex chronic gynecological disorder characterized by multifaceted etiology involving genetics, environment, immunity and inflammation, endometriosis (EM) has long been a significant concern for women of reproductive age worldwide. …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. A common feature of this pathology is the impaired decidualization of endometrial stromal …
Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease, which can usually be divided into peritoneal endometriosis (PEM), deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and ovarian endometriosis (OEM). Although the three pathologic types are essentially the same …
The levonorgestrel-containing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is a safe, long-acting, reversible contraceptive method. This study aimed to examine women's experiences, satisfaction, and continuation with the levonorgestrel-containing intrauterine system. This cross-sectional study …
