Endometriosis affects 6%-10% of women of reproductive age and is associated with chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and impaired quality of life. The endometriosis fertility index (EFI) predicts spontaneous pregnancy postoperatively, …
Background: Current endometriosis classification systems have important limitations in accurately describing total disease burden and predicting clinical outcomes. Existing staging frameworks often fail to integrate adenomyosis and do not adequately …
Precise staging of endometriosis remains a clinical challenge, as current diagnosis depends almost entirely on laparoscopic visualization-an invasive procedure marked by considerable inter-observer disagreement and diagnostic delays. Existing non-invasive approaches, …
Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) represent a major preventable cause of medication-related harm globally. Their prevalence varies across health systems, but common drivers include polypharmacy, aging populations, and specialty-specific prescribing patterns. Large-scale …
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) accumulate in reproductive tissues, yet most studies rely on serum measurements. It remains unclear whether serum concentrations adequately reflect levels in target tissues. We evaluated …
The current mixed-methods study aimed to investigate how individuals experiencing endometriosis coped and adapted to their condition, and the extent to which coping predicted health-related quality of life (HRQoL) over …
To evaluate change in overall pain after surgery in participants with suspected isolated superficial peritoneal endometriosis (iSPE), and to identify improvement predictors.
To assess the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound using the sliding sign for detecting pelvic adhesions and its correlation with operative time in laparoscopic surgery for benign gynecologic conditions.
To determine the diagnostic performance of each additional step of the four-step International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) consensus protocol for predicting the presence of deep endometriosis (DE) on transvaginal ultrasound.
Mother-to-child disease transmission begins in utero, with the placenta playing a critical role in pregnancy and offspring health. Uterine leiomyomata (fibroids, UFs) and endometriosis (ENDO) are common gynecologic diseases that …
