Risk, prevalence and survival outcomes of ovarian cancer in women with endometriosis: the ENDOCANCER systematic review and meta-analysis.

Endometriosis is linked to an increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), especially clear cell and endometrioid subtypes. The extent and prognostic significance of this link are still not fully …

The paradoxical association between endometrioma size and serum anti-Müllerian hormone levels in infertile women.

The impact of endometrioma size on ovarian reserve remains controversial. Although endometriomas are known to reduce anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, some studies suggest a paradoxical association between larger cysts and …

Electroacupuncture ameliorates Endometriosis-Associated ovarian dysfunction by activating Nrf2 pathway to upregulate GPX4 function and inhibiting ferroptosis.

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common cause of ovarian dysfunction and infertility, closely linked to iron overload-induced oxidative stress and ferroptosis. While electroacupuncture (EA) has shown promise in treating reproductive disorders, …

Reduced type 2 epithelial-mesenchymal transition serves as a risk factor for the progression from endometriosis to endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer.

Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully …

Symptom Burden in Adenomyosis: A Comparative Analysis With Peritoneal and Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis.

Adenomyosis frequently coexists with endometriosis and shares overlapping symptoms; however, the symptom burden of isolated adenomyosis remains insufficiently defined. The aim of this study was to compare the severity and …

The characterization of patients with premature ovarian failure, endometriosis, and polycystic ovary syndrome in women attending comprehensive health centers in Urmia, Iran.

Transfer RNA-derived small RNAs in female reproductive disorders: emerging roles and clinical implications.

Female reproductive disorders present significant challenges worldwide. Transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), a structurally diverse class of non-coding RNAs mainly comprising tRNA halves (tiRNAs) and tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs), have emerged …

Benefits of minimal ethanol volume and retention without removal in transvaginal ethanol sclerotherapy for endometriomas.

This study aims to introduce an effective protocol for transvaginal ethanol sclerotherapy, focussing on the aspiration of viscous cystic content and the amount of ethanol instilled in the cystic cavity …

Performance of Nonaugmented Routine Pelvic Ultrasound for Deep Endometriosis Using Static 2024 SRU Consensus Criteria: A Multireader Study.

To decrease the existing diagnostic delay of pelvic endometriosis, the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound (SRU) has proposed consensus criteria using augmented pelvic ultrasound (APU) technique and reporting guidelines based …

ATOPE study protocol: a randomised controlled trial comparing cystectomy and plasma vapourisation in endometriomas under 6 cm, with an observational arm for sclerotherapy in larger cysts.

The Ablative Technique Options for Preserving fertility in Endometrioma study is a prospective, monocentric clinical study that combines a randomised controlled trial comparing cystectomy and plasma vapourisation for endometriomas measuring …
