Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissues (glands and stroma) located outside the uterine cavity. The pathophysiology of this condition remains incompletely understood. Local …
Endometriosis is a chronic disease which has been reported to be associated with distorted immune mechanisms. The alternative pathway is a complement system which plays a role in immune defense. …
Magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) has become an essential imaging modality for evaluating small bowel disorders, particularly Crohn's disease (CD), due to its superior soft-tissue contrast, multiplanar capabilities, and lack of …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis has a marked impact on fertility, although the mechanisms behind this relationship remain poorly understood, particularly in cases without significant anatomical distortions or in the context of ovarian …
Dietary factors have recently been recognized as potentially influential in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM), yet studies on the causal relationship between dietary preferences and EM are limited. The present …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease that affects 1 in 10 reproductive-aged women. Most studies investigate established disease; however, the initiation and early events in endometriotic lesion development remain poorly …
The mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of endometriosis, characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus, remain poorly understood. This study aimed to identify cell type-specific gene expression changes …
Endometriosis development is associated with peritoneal immune microenvironment abnormality; however, the specific mechanism is uncertain. We aimed to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of uterine cavity-derived exosomes on macrophage …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a prevalent gynecological condition characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, often leading to secondary dysmenorrhea (SD), chronic pelvic pain and infertility. This review …
A nulliparous woman in her late 30s with a history of pericardial patch repair for atrial septal defect and completed treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis 9 years ago presented with chest …
