UNLABELLED: Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent disorder affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age, and the absence of reliable noninvasive diagnostic tools contributes to delayed diagnosis and disease progression. To ident…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a non-invasive, blood-based diagnostic assay for endometriosis that performs accurately across menstrual cycle phases and complements existing imaging modalities. DESIGN: Multicenter case-control st…

Abstract Study question Is a reliable blood-based noninvasive diagnostic test for mild and severe endometriosis feasible using five miRNA biomarkers and have clinical utility? Summary answer Noninvasive molecular diagnosis using serum and a…

Endometriosis is a common yet often underdiagnosed condition, partly due to the lack of reliable diagnostics. This study examines the clinical feasibility of a blood-based, miRNA-driven test to diagnose endometriosis and address the challen…

INTRODUCTION: The clinical presentation of endometriosis varies widely, from asymptomatic to severe with often infertility also presented. Screening methods today include imaging, which is subject to operator expertise and poor specificity.…

Endometriosis is a complex gynecologic disorder that has long been recognized as showing heritable tendencies, with recurrence risks of 5-7% for first-degree relatives. Familial and epidemiologic studies support that this disease is a genet…
