Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains the leading cause of acquired valvular heart disease in low- and middle-income countries, affecting an estimated 40 million individuals and disproportionately affecting children and young …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and estrogen-dependent disease in which oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and lesion-supportive microenvironmental signaling contribute to lesion development. N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a glutathione-replenishing and redox-modulating agent, has …
Circadian rhythm (CR) is a 24-hour biological cycle regulated by endogenous and environmental factors. Altered CR gene expression has been associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), potentially affecting vascular regulation …
Endometriosis is a multifactorial, chronic inflammatory disorder that affects a substantial proportion of women during their reproductive years and is frequently associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Accumulating evidence suggests …
This paper aims to analyse selected online narratives of women with endometriosis who leverage the affordances of these platforms to share their lived experiences. Through discourse analysis, this study critically …
The survival of ectopic endometrial lesions in endometriosis critically depends on their ability to evade immune recognition and clearance by the host, a process known as immune evasion. Recent studies …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects around 10% of women of reproductive age and is frequently associated with infertility. Despite its high prevalence in assisted reproductive technology (ART) …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue and is closely associated with pain and infertility. This review summarizes current evidence on immune dysregulation …
Endometriosis (EMs) is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory gynecological disease characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial tissues, leading to dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility. Although the retrograde menstruation theory clarifies the …
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are common gynecologic disorders associated with dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. Although they share several molecular features, the mechanisms by which endometrium-derived tissues develop distinct pathological …
