Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent condition characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial tissue, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying lesion persistence remain incompletely understood. Aquaporins (AQPs), transmembrane water channels involved in cellular …
This study investigates how clinical factors and hormonal levels affect oocyte retrieval in modified natural cycles, aiming to improve understanding and enhance treatment protocols.
Two-port robotic-assisted hysterectomy presents a minimally invasive alternative to traditional multi-port techniques. While only a few cases have been reported in the literature [1,2], the enhanced articulation and precision of …
To (1) determine how application of the updated international definition of deep endometriosis (DE) alters apparent disease prevalence across pelvic sites, and (2) characterize the distribution of endometriosis phenotypes, including …
Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) is expressed on the plasma membrane of granulosa cells in the ovarian follicles. FSHR is involved in the development and maturation of Graafian follicles, along with …
To explore the role of intraoperative transvaginal ultrasound in surgical planning for bowel deep endometriosis involving the rectum, rectosigmoid junction, and inferior sigmoid colon [1].
The objective of this video is to describe a case of disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis (DPL) mimicking deeply infiltrating endometriosis and discuss the preoperative workup, intraoperative approach, and postoperative considerations. We …
Firstly, this meta-analysis[1] included a total of eight studies, seven of which used the rASRM classification, while only one applied the ENZIAN classification; the latter was not included in the …
Endometriosis is a chronic endocrine and inflammatory disease commonly presenting with dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and/or infertility. Despite the importance of menstrual symptoms, the impact of menstruation on stress is still …
This systematic review aimed to summarize the effects of astaxanthin (ASX) supplementation on oxidative stress, inflammation, and metabolic regulation in human studies. A systematic search was conducted in Scopus, Web …
