To evaluate the diagnostic utility of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs), calprotectin, and classical tumor markers (CA 125 and CA19-9) in distinguishing ovarian endometriomas from simple cysts and healthy controls, …
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 …
Adolescent-onset endometriosis is increasingly recognized as a distinct clinical challenge. It often requires years to achieve a diagnosis, leading to prolonged physical and psychological distress and significantly impairing quality of …
Although per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure has been linked to endometriosis, this association remains controversial, and the underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study aimed to investigate this relationship and …
Mitophagy is a catabolic mechanism that selectively degrades damaged mitochondria and precisely modulates mitochondrial content, thereby maintaining intracellular homeostasis under stress conditions. To date, most reviews on mitophagy have predominantly …
This study investigated fertility-related quality of life among married women of reproductive age (20-45 years) with endometriosis-associated infertility, focusing on the mediating role of family resilience between infertility-related stress and …
Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological disorder, with its pathogenesis potentially linked to oxidative stress. Carotenoids, as natural antioxidants, may play a role in its prevention. This study aimed to investigate …
Endometriosis is a gynecological condition which often causes chronic or recurrent pelvic pain (CPP). The disease can thereby impose a significant burden on affected individuals and their romantic relationships. Existing …
Endometriosis is a common disease among women of childbearing age, and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), a response involved in regulating protein homeostasis, has been linked to its pathogenesis. To identify …
Background: This study examines the impact of endometriosis on sexual function, focusing on disease localization, pain severity, and psychosocial factors. It integrates the rASRM and Enzian classification systems to explore …
