Advanced endometriosis (stage III-IV, per the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (rARSM) classification of endometriosis) is associated with a range of pregnancy-related complications. Despite growing evidence, awareness of these …

The Great Masquerader: Accessory Cavitating Uterine Mass (ACUM). Evaluation, diagnosis, and surgical management.

Accessory cavitating uterine masses (ACUM) are rare, cystic uterine anomalies associated with an otherwise normal uterus and reproductive tract. They are diagnosed via a presence of a noncommunicating accessory cavity …

The immunotherapy era in ovarian clear cell carcinoma: current evidence and future perspective.

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a rare, aggressive epithelial ovarian cancer subtype, accounting for approximately 10% of cases and associated with a poor prognosis due to chemoresistance and unique …

Oxidative Stress-Telomere Axis in IVF: Molecular Mechanisms, Biomarkers, and Clinical Translation.

The reduction in oocyte competence and ovarian reserve coincides with reproductive ageing; nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Our testable mechanistic hypothesis is that the oxidative …

A Unique Case Series of Endometrial Vascular Dystrophy: Rising Incidence and Association With Uterine Pathologies.

Endometrial vascular dystrophy (EVD) is a rare hysteroscopic finding characterized by abnormal, tortuous, and dilated endometrial vessels, most often associated with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Despite its potential clinical impact, …

Detection of peritoneal, ovarian, and bowel endometriosis using FTIR spectroscopy and machine learning.

This study evaluated the diagnostic potential of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy combined with machine learning for the detection of ovarian, bowel, and peritoneal endometriosis. The Boruta algorithm was applied to …

Progesterone and IL-6 Expression Are Modulated by Follicular Fluid in Granulosa Cell Cultures.

Endometriosis (ENDO) and poor ovarian response (POR) represent challenging conditions in assisted reproduction. Both, associated with altered follicular fluid (FF) composition, specifically impact on granulosa cell (GC) function in an …

Venous Thromboembolism Risk Associated With Relugolix-estradiol-norethisterone Acetate Combination Therapy.

Relugolix, an oral GnRH receptor antagonist, is effective in treating uterine myomas and endometriosis. However, concerns persist regarding the venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk associated with its combination with oral estradiol …

Bidirectional Mendelian randomization and cross-sectional study reveal depression as a causal risk factor for endometriosis.

Endometriosis (EMs) and depression are both common conditions that have a significant negative impact on quality of life. However, it is still unclear about the relationship between them. The study …
