TRIzol treatment of secretory phase endometrium allows combined proteomic and mRNA microarray analysis of the same sample in women with and without endometriosis
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-8-123

BACKGROUND: According to mRNA microarray, proteomics and other studies, biological abnormalities of eutopic endometrium (EM) are involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, but the relationship between mRNA and protein expression in EM i…

Non-invasive diagnosis of endometriosis based on a combined analysis of six plasma biomarkers
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/dep425

BACKGROUND: Lack of a non-invasive diagnostic test contributes to the long delay between onset of symptoms and diagnosis of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the combined performance of six potential plasma biomarkers in …

OC13.02: Ultrasound in the detection of rectal- and distal sigmoid involvement of deep endometriosis
·doi:10.1002/uog.6530

Accurate prediction of the extent of distal bowel involvement in case of deep endometriosis could help in the planning of surgery: if the endometriotic lesion does superficially (only serosa) involve the bowel wall, conventional operative (…

Role of cytokines in the endometrial-peritoneal cross-talk and development of endometriosis
Frontiers in bioscience (Elite edition) ·doi:10.2741/e40

A clear picture of the dynamic relationship between the endometrium and peritoneum is emerging as both tissues may participate in the spontaneous development of endometriosis. Various adhesion molecules, pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemo…

No Difference in Cycle Pregnancy Rate and in Cumulative Live-Birth Rate Between Women With Surgically Treated Minimal to Mild Endometriosis and Women With Unexplained Infertility After Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation and Intrauterine Insemination
·doi:10.1097/01.ogx.0000253529.85686.72

Whether and how minimal to mild endometriosis is related to subfertility remains a controversial issue. Retrospective studies have pointed to reduced fecundity in these women compared to those with unexplained infertility. Studies of the ef…

Session 69: Endometriosis 2
·doi:10.1093/humrep/dem1068

Conclusions:The size of the 2 -5 mm follicle pool is an independent and important contributor to the FA of PCOS.This result could be explained by an exaggerated physiological inhibitory effect from this pool on the terminal follicle growth,…
