Emerging Pathways to Non-Invasive Diagnosis in Endometriosis: Integrating Machine Learning, Deep Learning and Multi-Omics Biomarkers.

Endometriosis is a chronic, debilitating condition affecting approximately 10-15% of reproductive-aged women and it is often associated with significant diagnostic delays due to its heterogeneity and unreliable non-invasive tests. Artificial …

Epidemiology, Risk Factors, Diagnosis, and Comorbidities of Endometriosis: An Umbrella Review.

Background: Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease estimated to affect up to 190 million women of reproductive age worldwide based on clinical and population-based estimates, although only 22.3 million …

The role of IL-33/ST2 signaling in female reproductive diseases.

Female reproductive tissues repeatedly undergo controlled inflammation, immune adaptation, and tissue repair. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) and its receptor suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) sit at the center of these processes, but …
