BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a benign disorder characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial glands and stroma within the myometrium. The main clinical manifestations of adenomyosis are dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, and infertility, which…

Abstract Background Adenomyosis is a commonly observed benign gynecological disease that affects the quality of life and social psychology of women of childbearing age. However, because of the unknown etiology and incidence of adenomyosis…

PURPOSE: To study the efficacy and safety of the dienogest and the gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) in symptomatic females with uterine adenomyosis. METHODS: A total of 127 patients with adenomyosis with a chief complaint of…

The absence of clinically objective methods to evaluate adenomyosis-associated pain and the poor understanding of its pathophysiology lead to treatment limitations. We conducted a resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging study wi…

OBJECTIVE: This prospective cohort study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of goserelin 10.8 mg administered trimonthly with goserelin 3.6 mg administered monthly in premenopausal females with symptomatic adenomyosis. METHO…

Changes in the function of peritoneal macrophages contribute to the homeostasis of the peritoneal immune microenvironment in endometriosis. The mechanism by which ectopic tissues escape phagocytic clearance by macrophages to achieve ectopic…

The main symptoms of adenomyosis may adversely affect physical and mental health and quality of life (QOL). However, studies are few on this topic. This study evaluated the effect of adenomyosis on anxiety, depression, and QOL. Participants…

Peritoneal macrophages play a significant role in the progression of endometriosis (EM), but their functional differentiation is still unclear, and their phagocytic ability is weak. CD47-signal-regulated protein α (SIRPα) and PD-L1-PD-1 are…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common nonmalignant gynecological disorder that affects 10-15% women of reproductive age and causes several symptoms that result in decreased quality of life and a huge social burden. In recent decades, extrac…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Which metabolites are altered in the peritoneal cavity of women with endometriosis? Could the mouse endometriosis model simulate these alterations? DESIGN: Thirteen women with endometriosis and seven women with other ben…

BACKGROUND: A reliable noninvasive biomarker is not yet available for endometriosis diagnosis. Novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of endometriosis are urgently needed. The molecular constituents of exosomes, especially exosomal microRNAs (m…

AIMS: To compare the efficacy of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and GnRH-a + levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) after adenomyomectomy for improved adenomyosis-associated symptoms. METHODS: Overall, 193 …

Endometriosis is one of the most common benign gynecological diseases. It shows similar attributes to those of some fatal tumors if it is becomes malignant. These attributes include invasion, implantation, and recurrence. Epidemiological, c…

Endometriosis is a common multifactorial gynecological disorder defined as the proliferation of endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Neuroangiogenesis (co-recruitment of nerves and blood vessels) is believed to play an integral…

Endometriosis (Ems) is a condition that refers to the ectopic implantation and growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of microRNA‑138 (miR‑138) in Ems and the possib…

STUDY QUESTION: Do exosomes play a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis in a murine model? SUMMARY ANSWER: Exosomes from endometriosis (EMS) can alternatively activate macrophages and thus contribute to the development of lesions in m…

Journal of Gynecology and Women’s Health is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary, international journal of Juniper group that publishes scientific works within the field of obstetrics, gynecology and women’s health.

Endometrial cells and microenvironment are two important factors in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Our previous study demonstrated that macrophages can induce eutopic epithelial cells of adenomyosis to suffer from epithelial-mesenchymal t…

STUDY QUESTION: What happens to the gut microbiota during development of murine endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Mice with the persistence of endometrial lesions for 42 days develop a distinct composition of gut microbiota. WHAT IS KNOWN AL…

Adenomyosis is a nonneoplastic condition characterized by the benign invasion of ectopic endometrium into the myometrium. Macrophages play significant roles in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and adenomyosis. An EMT associated with …

background: Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a specific type of endometriosis, which can be associated with more severe pelvic pain than other forms of endometriotic lesions. However, the mechanisms by which pain is generated are no…

STUDY QUESTION: What are the features of peritoneal macrophage subgroups and T helper cells in the development of murine endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: During the development of endometriosis in a murine model, large peritoneal macrophages…
