Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting approximately 5%-10% of reproductive-aged women. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is increasingly used to diagnose deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). This study assesses the sonographic accuracy of …
Background: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting 10-15% of women of reproductive age. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have accounted for only a fraction of its high heritability, indicating the …
Neuropeptide S (NPS) is a potent agonist for the GPCR receptor NPSR1, implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including inflammation. NPSR1 gene polymorphisms have been linked to asthma, inflammatory …
Endometriomas affect up to 44% of women with endometriosis and are associated with chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced ovarian reserve. Diagnosis and management are clinically challenging, requiring a nuanced …
The fibrosis mechanism in endometriosis is not elucidated. We investigated the role of eosinophil in fibrosis of endometriosis. The endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) and endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) were subjected …
Endometriosis is a prevalent, complex, inflammatory condition associated with a diverse range of symptoms and comorbidities. Despite its substantial burden on patients, population-level studies that explore its comorbid patterns and …
Endometriosis is a chronic condition defined by endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus, with symptoms including pain, infertility, and fatigue. Despite the high prevalence of disease, diagnosis is frequently delayed, in …
Endometriosis has been linked to several systemic complications, including cardiovascular disease (CVD), atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure (HF), hypertension, stroke, and ischemic stroke. The potential causal relationship between endometriosis and …
A well-differentiated endometrioid carcinoma at the site of extra-uterine/ovarian endometriosis complicates the differentiation between an uncommon metastatic pattern from a corpus cancer and a synchronous primary tumor originating from adjacent …
Endometriosis is estimated to affect 5%-10% of women of reproductive age, making timely diagnosis essential for initiating treatment, alleviating symptoms, and reducing the risk of disease progression. Unfortunately, the diagnostic …
