Adult stem cells are thought to drive the regenerative potential of the endometrium and contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis; however, their identity and defining features remain to be characterized. …
To perform a head-to-head comparison of the diagnostic performance of ultrasonography (US) vs magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the preoperative detection of endometriosis using the #Enzian classification system.
Endometriosis is a heterogeneous inflammatory condition that may influence long-term metabolic health. Prior studies have reported largely null associations with type 2 diabetes, potentially missing subtype-specific and subgroup heterogeneity. We …
Cardiothoracic involvement by obstetric and gynecologic pathologic conditions creates a broad spectrum of clinical and radiologic manifestations, ranging from mild to critical. The authors describe the unique and often unrecognized …
To investigate, using transvaginal ultrasound imaging, the overlap between polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) and endometriosis, and to explore demographic and clinical factors associated with their coexistence across endometriosis phenotypes.
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects an estimated 1 in 10 women but is often mis- and underdiagnosed due to its non-specific symptoms and the lack of a …
Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and focal adenomyosis of the outer myometrium (FAOM) are closely related chronic inflammatory conditions that often coexist. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index …
Daily activities, work, and health are closely intertwined. We closely followed 45 participants aged 50-66 years working across different sectors in a year-long study, who completed a range of baseline, …
Deep endometriosis affecting the lateral pelvic structures (LPS) is a complex and often underdiagnosed manifestation of the disease. The authors review the anatomic features of the LPS and underscore the …
The female reproductive system is a hormonally driven, immune-active, and structurally dynamic system in which estrogen signaling, inflammation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling interact to support essential reproductive processes. Cyclical …
