Metabolomic profiling of follicular fluid reveals unique pathways in endometriosis and infertility etiologies: a pilot study.

This study investigates metabolic profiles in follicular fluid of patients with endometriosis (EM), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), tubal blockage (TB), and unexplained infertility (UEI), assessing their associations with follicular development …

The Role of Chronic Endometritis in Endometriosis: A Personalized Diagnostic Tool?

(1) Background: Endometriosis and chronic endometritis (CE) are pathologies that are positively correlated and have similar paracrine and immunological alterations. This leads us to wonder whether their interrelationship plays a …

Gut microbiota composition and systemic immune-inflammatory marker correlations in infertile women with endometriosis: a pilot case-control study.

The specific gut microbial signatures and their correlation with immune-inflammatory markers in infertile women with endometriosis remain underexplored.To investigate the differences in gut microbiota and their associations with biochemical immune …

Immunohistochemical Detection of the Mechano-Gated Piezo Channels in the Normal Endometrium and in Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is an inflammatory estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by pain, dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. This is due to the invasion of different organs by endometrial tissue that causes inflammation, angiogenesis, and …

The Impact of Central Sensitization on Patients Perceived Improvement and Quality of Life Following Surgery for Chronic Pelvic Pain: A Pilot Study.

To assess whether higher baseline Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) scores are linked to quality-of-life outcomes and patient's impression of improvement after surgery for chronic pelvic pain.

Atosiban as a potential treatment for endometriosis-related pain: results from the ENDOBAN pilot study.

A pilot study of cervicovaginal microbiome patterns associated with embryo implantation outcomes in endometriosis-associated infertility.

The cervicovaginal microbiome-spanning from the vagina to endometrium-remains undercharacterized in endometriosis-associated infertility. Objective: To determine whether combined vaginal and cervical microbial profiles predict frozen embryo transfer (FET) outcomes.

Urine and Serum miRNA Signatures for the Non-Invasive Diagnosis of Adenomyosis: A Machine Learning-Based Pilot Study.

Background: Adenomyosis remains difficult to diagnose non-invasively due to clinical overlap with endometriosis and the limited specificity of imaging techniques. This pilot study evaluated whether serum- and urine-derived microRNA (miRNA) …

Diagnostic utility of Synuclein gamma (SNCG) and b-cell Lymphoma 6 (BCL6) as potential non-invasive dual biomarkers for endometriosis.

This pilot study evaluated Synuclein gamma (SNCG) and B-Cell Lymphoma 6 (BCL6) proteins as potential non-invasive biomarkers in serum and menstrual fluid (MF) to differentiate endometriosis patients from non-endometriosis and …

Understanding Peritoneal Fluid Estrogen and Progesterone Concentrations Permits Individualization of Medical Treatment of Endometriosis-Associated Pain with Lower Doses, Especially in Adolescents Not Requiring Contraception.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to review the importance of peritoneal fluid steroid hormone concentrations to understand the mechanism of hormonal medical treatment of endometriosis-associated pain. Design: The …
