Endometriosis is the extrauterine engraftment of endometrium-like tissue, causing chronic pain. Complex sensory-vascular-immune interactions, including growth factors, cytokines, and neuropeptides, are implicated in its pathophysiology, but the mechanisms remain unknown. …
Background: Vitamin D has anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties that may influence the pathophysiology of endometriosis. This study investigated the association between vitamin D levels and endometriosis, and vitamin D receptor …
Ultrasound techniques for diagnosing deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) currently lack a quantitative method to assess microstructural heterogeneity in relation to diagnosis and clinical symptoms. This study evaluates Shannon entropy-based radiomics …
The mechanisms behind endometriosis-related pain are not yet fully understood. To determine if there is a difference in the density of endometrial nerve fibers between women with endometriosis and healthy …
Endometriosis is a complex and multifaceted gynecological disorder characterized by the abnormal growth and presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the confines of the uterine cavity. It can lead to a …
Endometriosis has been hypothesized to increase the risk of preeclampsia (PE) and eclampsia, although the exact mechanism of this relationship is not clear. This study aimed to further explore the …
Endometriosis is a chronic and progressive condition commonly associated with debilitating pain. Treatments for endometriosis pain are limited and usually invasive. Psychological interventions are a non-invasive intervention option and have …
Background: Endometriosis is a chronic, oestrogen-sensitive inflammatory disease, which can have a significant impact on women's wellbeing. Nevertheless, the sleep health of this population has been poorly investigated. This exploratory …
Endometriosis, a prevalent gynecological condition affecting 10-15% of reproductive-age women, involves the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. This chronic inflammatory disease can significantly impact fertility by disrupting …
Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) measures supported by a severity algorithm may serve as a decision aid for triage and consultation in follow-up of patients with endometriosis. In a new follow-up regime, …
