BACKGROUND: Current evidence on the role of macro- and micronutrients in the aetiopathogenesis of endometriosis is controversial. OBJECTIVES: In this systematic review, we aimed to investigate the effect of macronutrients, dairy products, …
Background: The Endometriosis Health Profile-30 (EHP-30) is a commonly used tool for assessing the impact of endometriosis on a person's quality of life. The EHP-30 is a 30-item questionnaire that measures various aspects of endometriosis-r…
Endometriosis is a common problem affecting 5-10% of women of childbearing age. It is a condition with unknown pathology, leaving us with several theories. However, about half of women with endometriosis complain of difficulty conceiving. T…
Background: Symptomatic obturator nerve endometriosis is a rare condition. In this paper, we aim to review and discuss the characteristics of obturator nerve endometriosis in light of current literature. Methods: An electronic search was co…
Background: 10% of women of reproductive age are affected by endometriosis, and diaphragmatic endometriosis represents 1-1.5% of these cases. Diaphragmatic endometriotic lesions often require surgical treatment. Objective: This video aims t…
Endometriosis is associated with dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea and often severe pelvic pain as well as considered a chronic inflammatory disease, defined by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. An important general con…
The peritoneal environment in endometriosis is known to have growth-promoting effects on endometrial cells. To investigate whether follicular fluid, a contributor to the peritoneal fluid, stimulates endometrial cell proliferation, we incuba…
Proliferation of endometrium is dependent on sex steroid hormones, but specific growth factors are likely to play an important role in regulating this process. A number of cytokines and growth factors are synthesized in the endometrium in r…
Abdomino-pelvic adhesions arise from infection, endometriosis, or peritoneal injury during surgery, and represent a significant source of morbidity in women of reproductive age. Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) plays a role in the che…
This article reviews the pathogenesis of endometriosis, which involves retrograde dissemination of endometrium and/or development in situ by metaplasia, and there is evidence suggesting that genetic and hormonal factors may play a role. The…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the presence and modulation of growth-regulated alpha, a member of the chemokine family with neutrophil chemotactic activity, in the peritoneal fluid of women with or without endometriosis. METHODS: Peritoneal flui…
OBJECTIVE: To examine the mechanism of sperm motility inhibition by peritoneal fluid (PF) from women with endometriosis. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized study. SETTING: University-based andrology laboratory. PATIENTS: Women with and without…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of endometriosis on implantation. DESIGN: Case-control study from Yale University IVF-ET program. PATIENTS: Two hundred eighty-four consecutive IVF cycles were analyzed retrospectively. Patients with end…
The local environment of peritoneal fluid (PF) surrounding the endometriotic implant is immunologically dynamic and links the reproductive and immune systems. Peritoneal fluid contains a variety of free floating cells, including macrophages…
