The human endometrium: atlases, models, and prospects.

Approximately every month, the human endometrium undergoes a cycle of proliferation, differentiation, and, in the absence of pregnancy, shedding and repair. Each cycle relies on intricate interorgan coordination of hormonal …

Association between the composite dietary antioxidant index and risk of endometriosis in women: a national population-based study.

Composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) has been found protective to women's health. However, the association between CDAI level and the risk of endometriosis in women is unclear.

Combined targeting of TCF7L1/2, PTEN, CDK6, and BCCIP by microRNA miR-29c-3p is associated with reduced invasion and proliferation of endometriotic cells.

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder associated with pain symptoms and infertility. The expression of microRNA miR-29c-3p is dysregulated in endometriosis. We aimed to identify novel molecular targets of miR-29c-3p …

Virtual reality-based pain control in endometriosis: a questionnaire-based pilot study of applications for relaxation and physical activity.

Virtual reality (VR) based technology may offer new avenues in the management of chronic endometriosis-related pain. Our prospective, 14-week, open, three-phase, cross-over pilot study investigated whether the use of VR …

MicroRNA profiling reveals potential biomarkers for the early transformation of endometriosis towards endometriosis-correlated ovarian cancer.

Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic, gynecological condition affecting 6-10 % of reproductive-age women. While these lesions are benign, ovarian EMS presents cancer-like features, and can progress to endometriosis-correlated ovarian cancer …

Predictive factors for spontaneous conception in women with moderate and severe endometriosis following operative laparoscopy: A cohort study.

To externally validate the Endometriosis Fertility Index (EFI) and to assess cumulative spontaneous pregnancy rates in women with moderate to severe endometriosis following fertility-enhancing minimally invasive surgery.

The Feasibility and Safety of Robot-Assisted Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (RA-vNOTES) for Gynecologic Disease: 298-Case Series.

Objectives: To explore the feasibility and surgical outcomes of robot-assisted vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RA-vNOTES) for women suffering from gynecologic disease. Methods: We performed an observational study reporting …

Letter to the Editor: Considerations beyond adenomyosis as a cause of surgical failure in treating dyspareunia in rectovaginal septum endometriosis.

The Role of Exosomal miRNAs in Female Infertility: Therapeutic Potential and Mechanisms of Action.

Reproductive disorders, including preeclampsia (PE), endometriosis, premature ovarian failure (POF), and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), present substantial challenges to women's reproductive health. Exosomes (EXOs) are cell-derived vesicles containing molecules that …

Ramipril ameliorates endometriosis by inducing oxidative stress-mediated apoptosis in the wistar rat.

Endometriosis is illustrated by the presence of ectopic endometrial cells capable of evading apoptosis outside the uterus. Apoptotic and anti-apoptotic factors in the extra uterine microenvironment can be compromised by …
