Racial and Ethnic Inequities in Rates of Diagnostic Laparoscopy for Evaluation of Endometriosis in Adolescents with Pelvic Pain: a Retrospective Cohort Study.

Endometriosis often presents in adolescence as chronic pelvic pain (CPP) or dysmenorrhea. Research in adults demonstrates non-White race is associated with delayed surgical diagnosis of endometriosis; however, inequity in adolescents …

Endometriosis in Carriers of a Pathogenic Variant in BRCA1 or BRCA2: A Descriptive Analysis of a Large Multicentral BRCA Carrier Cohort.

Background: Endometriosis affects an estimated 10% of reproductive-aged women and is associated with increased ovarian cancer risk. While BRCA1/2 mutations are established risk factors for ovarian cancer, their association with …

A Decision Tree Model Integrating Ultrasound Sliding Sign Optimizes Surgical Planning for Stage IV Endometriosis: An Ambispective Cohort Study.

Urine and Serum miRNA Signatures for the Non-Invasive Diagnosis of Adenomyosis: A Machine Learning-Based Pilot Study.

Background: Adenomyosis remains difficult to diagnose non-invasively due to clinical overlap with endometriosis and the limited specificity of imaging techniques. This pilot study evaluated whether serum- and urine-derived microRNA (miRNA) …

Musculoskeletal disorders following hysterectomy with ovarian conservation: a population-based cohort study.

To determine the risk of developing de novo carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), arthritis, or rheumatoid arthritis in women who underwent hysterectomy with bilateral ovarian conservation (H-OC) before reaching spontaneous menopause.

Oxidative Stress-Telomere Axis in IVF: Molecular Mechanisms, Biomarkers, and Clinical Translation.

The reduction in oocyte competence and ovarian reserve coincides with reproductive ageing; nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Our testable mechanistic hypothesis is that the oxidative …

Bidirectional Mendelian randomization and cross-sectional study reveal depression as a causal risk factor for endometriosis.

Endometriosis (EMs) and depression are both common conditions that have a significant negative impact on quality of life. However, it is still unclear about the relationship between them. The study …

The overlooked link between reproductive system disorders and depression: a cohort study in 2 million women.

Depression rates are higher in women, especially during periods of hormonal fluctuation. Reproductive system disorders (RSDs), which often disrupt hormonal balance, may contribute to this mental health burden. Despite their …

Long-term risk of psychiatric disorders in women with endometriosis: A retrospective cohort study.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent condition associated with substantial physical and psychological burden. Although psychiatric comorbidities are frequently reported, large-scale real-world data remain limited.

Endometriosis - on the intersection of modern environmental pollutants and ancient genetic regulatory variants.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-driven inflammatory disorder affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women globally. Despite increasing genomic insights into advanced-stage disease, the genetic underpinnings of early-stage endometriosis remain poorly understood, …
