Background Studies have shown a significant association between migraine and endometriosis, but no study has explored the relationship between migraine and endometriosis phenotypes: Superficial peritoneal endometriosis, ovarian endometrioma…
Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial cells outside the uterine cavity. Thyroid autoimmunity has been associated with endometriosis. This work investigated the potential pathophysiological link between endome…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between bladder deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and anterior focal adenomyosis of the outer myometrium (aFAOM) diagnosed by preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). DESIGN: An observ…
STUDY QUESTION: Is endometriosis associated with aberrant sialylation patterns and what is the potential impact of such anomalies on cell migratory properties? SUMMARY ANSWER: The reduced α-2,6 sialylation patterns in the peritoneal fluid o…
Endometriosis, a hormone-dependant condition affecting around 10% of women in their reproductive years, has frequent consequences on fertility. Indeed, a proportion of women will require assisted reproductive techniques or surgery in order …
STUDY QUESTION: Is oxidative stress associated with the A disintegrin and metalloproteases (ADAM) metallopeptidase domain 17 (ADAM17)/Notch signalling pathway and fibrosis in the development of endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Oxidative stres…
STUDY QUESTION: What is the relationship between endometriosis phenotypes superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SUP), ovarian endometrioma (OMA), deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and the adenomyosis appearance by magnetic resonance ima…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of assisted reproduction technology (ART) on painful symptoms and quality of life (QoL) in women who have endometriosis as compared with disease-free women. DESIGN: Prospective controlled, observational co…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To analyze whether a history of uterine surgery correlates with disease severity in patients with bladder deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). DESIGN: This was an observational, cross-sectional study using data collected…
STUDY QUESTION: Were spontaneous miscarriages more frequent in women with histologically proven endometriosis when compared with endometriosis-free controls? SUMMARY ANSWER: Endometriosis-affected women display a significantly higher rate …
study question: Are interleukin-33 (IL-33) serum levels higher in women with uterine leiomyoma compared with controls without leiomyoma? summaryanswer: Serum IL-33 is elevated inwomenwith uterine leiomyoma and correlatedwith features of ute…
Endometriosis, the hormone-dependent extrauterine dissemination of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, affects 5–15% of women of reproductive age. Pathogenesis remains poorly understood as well as the estrogen production by endometriotic…

The influence of intrauterine environment on the risk of endometriosis is still controversial. Whether birth weight modifies the risk of endometriosis in adulthood remains an open ques-tion. For this purpose, we designed a case-control stud…
Endometriosis is a benign gynecologic disease, affecting women of reproductive age associated with chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia and infertility. Ovarian endometrioma (OMA), superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE), and d…
OBJECTIVE: To study possible associations among endometriosis, pelvic infectious disease, and ART. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort analysis over 4 consecutive years, based on medical records and insurance coding in a tertiary endometriosis re…
OBJECTIVE: Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are involved in the proliferation and survival of endometriotic lesions. Vemurafenib (PLX4032) is a novel protein kinase inhibitor that targets BRAF, a member of the MAPK pathway. The pre…
