The survival of ectopic endometrial lesions in endometriosis critically depends on their ability to evade immune recognition and clearance by the host, a process known as immune evasion. Recent studies …
The widespread use of plastic has led to exposure to chemicals like bisphenols (BPs), particularly bisphenol A (BPA), which are crucial in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. …
Accumulating observational evidence suggests an association between thyroid function and endometriosis, though the causal relationship remains unclear. To investigate potential bidirectional causal relationships, including for endometriosis subtypes, we conducted a …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease. Although several studies have suggested a key role for estrogen receptor ERβ in EMS lesion development, its detection has been challenged by …
The differences between adenomyosis subtypes in clinical features and reproductive outcomes remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to compare clinical features and reproductive outcomes after the first frozen embryo transfer …
The aim of this review was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ethanol sclerotherapy (EST) for ovarian endometriomas, regarding the risk of recurrence, impact on ovarian reserve, and comparison …
Endometriosis is a chronic, hormone-dependent condition affecting an estimated 190 million women worldwide. Our understanding of hormonal contributions to endometriosis pathophysiology is incomplete, hindering the identification of diagnostic biomarkers and …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterised by ectopic endometrial tissue, progressive fibrosis and chronic pain, with a pathogenesis that goes beyond oestrogen dependence. The central question this review seeks …
The human microbiome, a dynamic endocrine organ, exerts profound systemic influence through the production of bioactive metabolites. While the microbiome-gut-brain axis is well-established, the direct conduit between the gut microbiota …
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality in women, yet sex-specific risk factors are usually not included in conventional predictive models. Specifically, heart failure (HF) in women may …
