This study aimed to investigate the microbiome profile in the cystic fluid of ovarian endometrioma and explore its association with the microbial communities present in the lower and upper reproductive …
Abnormal expression levels of microRNAs are associated with numerous diseases in the female reproductive tract. A small subset of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) genes have retained open reading frames (ORFs) …
Accessory cavitating uterine masses (ACUM) are rare, cystic uterine anomalies associated with an otherwise normal uterus and reproductive tract. They are diagnosed via a presence of a noncommunicating accessory cavity …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to pain and infertility. Recent research has highlighted the important role of the …
What is the evidence available concerning gut and reproductive tract microbiomes in patients with endometriosis and what are the methodological approaches employed in microbiome studies on endometriosis?
Non-human primates (NHPs) are considered important models for the study of reproductive diseases, due to their anatomical and physiological similarities to humans. However, studies on spontaneous lesions of the reproductive …
The microbiota constitutes a vital component of the human microenvironment, dynamically responding to physiological changes and playing crucial roles in maintaining normal bodily functions. Endometriosis (EMs), defined as a chronic, …
Gynecologic postoperative adhesions (GPOA) remain an under-appreciated source of morbidity despite advances in minimally invasive surgery. Adhesions forming after myomectomy, extensive endometriosis excision, repeat caesarean section, or hysteroscopic adhesiolysis develop …
Glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) are the most widely used herbicides in the United States, accounting for 19% of estimated global use. Although the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reaffirmed that the …
