STUDY QUESTION: What are the systemic molecular profiles of endometriosis diagnosed in adolescents and young adults? SUMMARY ANSWER: Significant enrichment and increased activation of proteins related to angiogenesis and cell migration pat…
Endometriosis affects reproductive-aged females and varies considerably in terms of symptom presentation, morphologic features, and treatment response. Most studies investigating symptom recurrence after an endometriosis-related surgery hav…
OBJECTIVES: We aim to assess the postoperative analgesic effect of intraoperative levobupivacaine local infiltration anesthesia (LA) and transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block in gynecologic laparoscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducte…
OBJECTIVE: To identify metabolites in presurgical blood associated with risk of persistent postsurgical pelvic pain 1 year after endometriosis surgery in adolescent and young adult patients. DESIGN: Prospective observational study within t…
We described trends in pelvic pain characteristics over 2 years of follow-up among adolescents and adults with and without endometriosis participating in the longitudinal observational cohort of the Women's Health Study: From Adolescence to…
Abstract Menstrual pain has been associated with increased ovarian cancer risk, presumably through increased inflammation, which is known to play a critical role in ovarian carcinogenesis. Analgesic medications are frequently used to treat …
Purpose of reviewThere is increasing interest in the long-term health and comorbid conditions associated with endometriosis for both women and neonates. The purpose of this review was to synthesize and discuss the current state of the liter…
Endometriosis is a painful gynecologic disease affecting one in ten reproductive aged women worldwide. Few studies have correlated this symptomatology with biomarker levels among women with and without endometriosis, and no studies correlat…
ObjectiveEndometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder often associated with severe pelvic pain and infertility with few known modifiable risk factors. We investigated whether in utero and early life exposures are associated with surgicall…
Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disease defined by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. While its etiology is largely unknown, accumulating evidence suggests that inflammation plays a major role. Our obj…
BackgroundCancer Antigen 125 (CA125) is currently the best available ovarian cancer screening biomarker. However, CA125 has been limited by low sensitivity and specificity in part due to normal variation between individuals. Personal charac…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between endometriosis and adverse pregnancy outcomes. METHODS: Women between ages 25 and 42 years in 1989 (n=116,429) reported detailed information on pregnancies and reproductive health at baselin…
BACKGROUND: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is the most promising ovarian cancer screening biomarker to date. Multiple studies reported CA125 levels vary by personal characteristics, which could inform personalized CA125 thresholds. However, thi…
Abstract Background: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is a membrane-bound glycosylated mucin that has been reported to be the most promising biomarker for ovarian cancer screening, although results from two large randomized trials comparing scree…
To assess the effect of dienogest on recurrence of ovarian endometriomas and severity of pain after laparoscopic surgery, a retrospective study of 81 patients was performed at three institutions in Osaka, Japan. Patients had a six-month min…
Objective: To evaluate risk factors associated with ovarian endometrioma recurrence after laparoscopic cystectomy.Design: A retrospective study.Setting: Minoh City Hospital.Patients: This study included 81 women who underwent laparoscopic c…
