To investigate the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting and classifying adhesions between pelvic organs caused by endometriosis, comparing MRI findings to those obtained by laparoscopy.
The endometrium is a highly dynamic tissue central to female reproductive function, undergoing nearly 500 cycles of proliferation, differentiation, shedding, and regeneration throughout a woman's reproductive life. This remarkable regenerative …
Many experimental and clinical studies published so far demonstrate that melatonin-produced mainly by the pineal gland located deep in the middle of the brain, between the two cerebral hemispheres, and …
Physicians interested in endometriosis and infertility as well as medical teams in reproductive medicine and endometriosis centers.
Ovarian endometrioma (OMA), the most prevalent and clinically consequential subtype of endometriosis, represents a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by ectopic endometrial-like lesions. This condition manifests as progressive dysmenorrhea, ovarian reserve …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition often associated with infertility. The role of granzymes as cytotoxic proteases and immune regulators in endometriosis remains poorly understood. This study evaluated serum and …
Cystic adenomyosis is a rare subtype of adenomyosis characterized by cystic lesions within the myometrium, causing significant dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain. Traditional surgical treatments, such as laparoscopic or hysteroscopic excision, …
Ectopic pregnancy (EP) and tubal endometriosis (TEM) directly affect the fallopian tube structure and function, while ovarian cysts (OC) and uterine fibroids (UF) may indirectly influence tubal physiology. These conditions …
The female reproductive system (FRS) exhibits unique immunological characteristics, balancing defense against pathogens with tolerance to sperm and semi-allogeneic embryos. Key players include decidual natural killer (dNK) cells, immune checkpoint …
Endometriosis is a prevalent, estrogen-dependent, inflammatory disease that impairs fertility via hormonal dysregulation, immune dysfunction, oxidative stress/ferroptosis, genetic and epigenetic alterations, and microbiome imbalance. We summarize multi-omics insights and clinical …
