Dysmenorrhea is the most common gynaecological condition in women of reproductive age. Approximately 90% of cases are primary dysmenorrhea (PDM) which is not associated with underlying pathology. Dysmenorrhea can have …
Background: Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological conditions, and the gold standard for its diagnosis is laparoscopy. Cytokeratin fragment 21-1 (CYFRA 21-1) has emerged as a potential biomarker …
This study aimed to systematically assess the genetic comorbidity of endometriosis (EM) and its subtypes with menstrual-cycle-related traits, and to identify shared genetic mechanisms and key regulatory pathways underlying their …

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 has been associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are hypothesized to modulate female reproductive endocrine disorders, yet their causal relationships remain elusive. We employed Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate bidirectional causality between circulating PUFAs …
This single-centre retrospective study (100 women with endometrial polyps, mean age 41.8 ± 8.2 years) investigated the association between endometrial polyps and endometriosis. Endometriosis was confirmed in 13 % of …
A growing body of literature has revealed that patients with endometriosis are at an increased risk for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Endometriosis is a heterogeneous disease …
To evaluate central arterial stiffness, endothelial function, and circulating vascular biomarkers in women with ovarian endometriosis and to explore their associations compared with age-matched controls.
