Decreased pregnancy rate is linked to abnormal uterine peristalsis caused by intramural fibroids
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deq222

BACKGROUND: The relationship between fibroids and infertility remains an unsolved question, and management of intramural fibroids is controversial. During the implantation phase, uterine peristalsis is dramatically reduced, which is thought…

High incidence of tubal dysfunction is determined by laparoscopy in cases with positive Chlamydia trachomatis antibody despite negative finding in prior hysterosalpingography
Reproductive medicine and biology ·doi:10.1111/j.1447-0578.2007.00163.x

Aim: Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is one of the most commonly used methods in order to evaluate the condition of fallopian tubes in infertility clinics. In the present paper, we retrospectively compared the findings of HSG and laparoscopy to…

A case of giant cystic adenomyosis
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2005.11.028

We describe a 37-year-old woman with giant cystic adenomyosis who underwent a hysterectomy, providing magnetic resonance imaging and gross and microscopic images.

Stem Cell Factor (SCF) Concentrations in Peritoneal Fluid of Women with or without Endometriosis
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1111/j.8755-8920.2000.440407.x

PROBLEM: In the quest for possible involvement of stem cell factor (SCF), a cytokine known to have multiple effects, in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, we evaluated concentrations of SCF in peritoneal fluid (PF) of women with or without …

article 1999
Expression of Ah Receptor and Dioxin-Related Genes in Human Uterine Endometrium in Women with or without Endometriosis.
Endocrine journal ·doi:10.1507/endocrj.46.765

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has been suggested as a possible etiologic factor for endometriosis, a condition in which endometrium-like tissues are present outside the uterus. The prevailing view pertaining to the origin of en…

Underdeveloped uterus and reduced estrogen responsiveness in mice with disruption of the estrogen-responsive finger protein gene, which is a direct target of estrogen receptor alpha.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America ·doi:10.1073/pnas.96.21.12027

The biological roles of estrogen-responsive finger protein (efp) in vivo were evaluated in mice carrying a loss-of-function mutation in efp by gene-targeted mutagenesis. Although efp homozygous mice were viable and fertile in both sexes, th…
