BACKGROUND: Ferritin may be elevated as an acute-phase reactant in inflammatory conditions, potentially masking iron deficiency. We aimed to evaluate the frequency of iron deficiency and the diagnostic significance of transferrin saturation…
This dataset contains the anonymized clinical data analyzed in the study titled "Characteristics of transferrin saturation and anemia-related biomarkers in patients with uterine adenomyosis". Abstract:Background: Ferritin may be elevated as…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is increasingly recognized as a disorder of impaired reproductive immune tolerance rather than solely an endocrine disease. Although previous studies have reported inconsistent findings regarding the number of regu…
STUDY QUESTION: Does the restoration of regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress the progression of endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Adoptive transfer of Tregs suppresses the progression of endometriosis and reduces the levels of helper T (Th)-ce…
OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease wherein isoflavones interact with estrogen receptors. Daidzein-rich isoflavone aglycones (DRIAs) have been shown to inhibit cell proliferation and aromatase activity in vitro and in …
• Based on demographic profile, menstrual pain and medication usage for menstrual pain, multivariable logistic regression analysis indicted that older age and women with low BMI were found to be possible high-risk factors for the imaging di…
Partial cystectomy is often performed to treat bladder endometriosis. However, there are no reports of bladder rupture more than 10 years after cystectomy. A 55-year-old woman with a history of laparoscopic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy a…
The authors regret “We are very sorry for the careless printing mistake in the proper alignment of case numbers in Table 2, Table 3 of the mentioned article. These case numbers [(n = 25) and (n = 782)] should be read above the line and belo…
AIM: We investigated the association between the length of anogenital distance (AGD) and intra-vaginal pH, an indicator of vaginal eubiosis or dysbiosis, in women with endometriosis. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was performed includ…
OBJECTIVE: We examined the prevalence and risk factors in association with neonatal uterine bleeding (NUB) by retrospective search of contemporary and historical medical records and investigated the possible association between the history …
Menstrual blood, containing high iron levels, can undergo retrograde transport into the abdominal cavity. Excess iron causes oxidative stress and inflammation. Iron metabolism is regulated by hepcidin, and serum hepcidin levels are increase…
BACKGROUND: It has been hypothesized that the origin of early-onset endometriosis could be from endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSCs) in neonatal uterine blood (NUB). There is no information on the possible mechanistic basis linking an…
Objectives: The effects of laparoscopic surgical management in women with stage III/IV endometriosis remain controversial. The standard extent of resection for stage III/IV endometriosis with deep endometriosis to treat endometriosis-associ…
PROBLEM: Endometriosis is a proliferative disease characterized by cytokine-induced inflammation. The objective of this study was to assess cell growth and PGE2 production induced by TNF-α in endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) in spheroid c…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Would a properly designed educational programme offered to young women improve their awareness and fundamental knowledge of menstrual pain and endometriosis? DESIGN: A multinational cross-sectional study using a pen-and-…
More than 10 years following the publication of "The General Rules for Clinical Management of Endometriosis: The second edition" in January 2010, the long-awaited third edition has arrived. The second edition represents the bible for endome…
Although nutrient status plays an important role in cell metabolism, its significance in endometriosis is obscure. Herein, we investigated the effects of a low-nutrient microenvironment on endometriosis. Stromal cells (SCs) from ovarian end…
The aim of this review article was to summarize our current understanding on the etiologies and pathogenesis of human adenomyosis and to clarify the relative association between adenomyosis and infertility. The exact pathogenesis of adenomy…
