A broad range of genetic and epigenetic factors contributes to female infertility, a substantial proportion of which is related to ovulatory disorders. Any factor that disrupts the normal function of …
Hepatic endometriosis is a rare extrapelvic manifestation that can mimic hepatic neoplasia and, exceptionally, cause hemoperitoneum. We report a 45-year-old nulligravid woman with longstanding deep endometriosis and anticoagulation for cavoiliac …
Endometriosis (EuE) is a chronic, incurable disease. Due to limited efficacy, high recurrence rates, and serious side effects of current treatments, development of new, targeted, nonhormonal therapies is urgently needed. …
Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an important role in the evaluation of suspected gynecologic malignancies, providing high soft tissue contrast and multiparametric capabilities, including diffusion-weighted imaging and dynamic contrast …
Background/Objectives: The objective of this exploratory study was to test the hypothesis that endometriosis is associated with altered abundance and cellular location of nuclear progesterone receptor (PR) isoforms in eutopic …
Endometriosis is a chronic, systemic gynecological disorder that affects 190 million women worldwide. Current treatments consist of hormonal suppression and surgical excision; however, both have considerable side effects and a …
Endometriosis is a debilitating, estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by profound diagnostic delays due to clinical reliance on invasive laparoscopy. Developing noninvasive, point-of-care biomarker assessment remains a critical yet unmet medical …
Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with impaired fertility, but the extent to which its systemic inflammatory profile differs from that observed in infertile women without …
