Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and sex steroid hormone-dependent gynaecologic disease, characterised by endometrial cell proliferation outside the uterine cavity, often accompanied by fibrosis, progesterone resistance, and high recurrence despite …
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that interfere with hormone signalling and are increasingly linked to adverse reproductive outcomes. This viewpoint highlights emerging evidence that EDC exposure disrupts both …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, and altered hormone metabolism. Although gut microbiota-derived metabolites have been implicated in shaping immune microenvironments and lesion development, the …
Endometriosis is a chronic, heterogeneous gynaecological disorder characterised by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and is associated with pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Emerging …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. It remains a major contributor to chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition that is marked by the growth of lesions outside the uterus, along with angiogenesis, fibrosis, immune dysregulation, and pain sensitization. There is now …
Endometriosis is a challenging gynaecological condition that can lead to infertility. This unique narrative review summarises the impact of endometriosis, focusing on oocyte quality, its subcellular and molecular mechanisms, clinical …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial-like tissue, primarily on the ovaries, pelvic peritoneum, and bowel. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) …
In 2024, an international consensus statement on non-invasive imaging techniques for the diagnosis of pelvic deep endometriosis was published, recommending transvaginal sonography as the first-line imaging modality because of cost, …
Environmental microbiological monitoring is mandatory in IVF laboratories; however, procedure-specific risk assessment across the entire medically assisted reproduction workflow remains limited. This multicenter study, named "SMILE" (Study of Environmental Microbiological …
