PURPOSE: To identify risk factors that predict the persistence of noncyclical pelvic pain in patients with endometriosis despite receiving hormone therapy. METHODS: This retrospective study examined 164 patients with histopathologically co…

OBJECTIVE: To develop a machine learning method for the automatic recognition of endometriosis lesions during laparoscopic surgery and evaluate its feasibility and performance. DESIGN: Collecting and annotating surgical videos and training…

OBJECTIVES: A recent study has shown that myofibroblasts are primed for apoptosis when survival pathways are inhibited under fibrosis. This knowledge of apoptosis priming led to the development of methods to induce apoptosis specifically in…

Successful embryo implantation requires transient, well-controlled inflammation in decidualizing cells. In mice, Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 signaling in endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) by stimulation with factors present in seminal flui…

PurposeTo dynamically assess the evolution of live birth predictive factors' impact throughout the in vitro fertilization (IVF) process, for each fresh and subsequent frozen embryo transfers.MethodsIn this multicentric study, data from 13,5…

STUDY QUESTION: Is interleukin-10 (IL-10) anti-fibrotic in endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: IL-10 is not anti-fibrotic but pro-fibrotic in endometriosis, because IL-10 treatment of endometriotic stromal cells in vitro promotes myofibroblast …

STUDY QUESTION: Is activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) via interleukin-6 (IL-6) trans-signaling involved in fibrosis of endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Persistent activation of STAT3 via IL-6 trans-signa…

International guidelines are published to provide standardized information and fertility preservation (FP) care for adults and children. The purpose of the study was to conduct a modified Delphi process for generating FP guidelines for BGD.…

Endometriosis are characterized by dense fibrous tissue. Numerous studies have investigated roles of inflammation on the pathophysiology of endometriosis. However, the interplay of inflammation and fibrosis remains to be clarified. Here we …

Research questionIt is not clear whether innate immunity along with autophagy is altered in endometrial cells of patients with endometriosis.DesignThis study evaluated the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or polyinosinic:polycytidylic ac…

Study objectiveTo investigate predictive factors for change in quality of life (QOL) between pre- and postoperative periods in patients with endometriosis.DesignA prospective and multicenter cohort study.SettingFive districts including a te…

Could the presence of an endometrioma change the management of Assisted Reproductive Technology? The presence of an endometrioma (<6cm) at the time of stimulation or an endometrioma operated prior to stimulation have no impact on the qualit…

Deeply infiltrating endometriosis is a severe form of the disease, defined by endometriotic tissue peritoneal infiltration. The disease may involve the rectovaginal septum, uterosacral ligaments, digestive tract or bladder. Deeply infiltrat…

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A high recurrence rate after medical treatment is a major clinical problem for patients with endometriosis. Here, we have evaluated the in vitro effects of combined treatment with MK2206 (an AKT inhibitor) + chloroqu…

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study is to report on our experience of laparoscopic cervico-isthmic cerclage. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A monocentric retrospective study covering a 13-year period during which 25 cases of laparoscopic cerclag…

ObjectivesTo evaluate the feasibility and functional urinary and digestive results of nerve sparing techniques in endometriosis surgery.MethodsA research on the medline/pubmed database using specific keywords (nerve sparing, endometriosis, …

Study objectiveTo assess the impact of surgical treatment of endometriosis on quality of life and pain over a 3-year period of postoperative follow-up.DesignProspective and multicenter cohort study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).…

We thank the Editor-in Chief, Professor Amrita Ahluwalia, for her fair handling of the letter from Barra et al. (2018), as well as her openness. We acknowledge the interest of Barra et al. in our work, but we are obliged to respond to their…

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma within extrauterine sites. Our previous study revealed an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)-like process in red peritoneal endometriosis, whereas membrane lo…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder responsible for infertility and pelvic pain. A complete cure for patients with endometriosis awaits new targets and strategies. Here we show that U0126 (a MEK inhibitor) and MK2206 (an AKT in…

INTRODUCTION: Optimal surgical treatment of rectovaginal endometriosis remains a controversial topic. The objective of this study was to evaluate long-term postoperative outcomes after rectal shaving or colorectal resection for rectovaginal…

The purpose of the studyTo study preoperative thresholds of the SF-36 components above which we can predict a high risk of failure in order to improve the quality of life after surgery for patients with minimal endometriosis.Material and me…

Endometriosis is a common condition in women, whose main repercussions are painful symptoms. In addition, it was shown that endometriosis was a major cause of infertility and various obstetric complications could be related to this patholog…
