In brief: We present the first single-cell transcriptomic atlas of follicular fluid from an ovarian endometrioma (OMA) patient, revealing a novel TCR+ macrophage subtype, aberrant granulosa cell developmental trajectories, immune dysregulat…

Objective: To explore the effect of endometriosis (EM) on reproductive outcomes of young patient with EM after laparoscopic treatment in the first in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) cycle. Methods: The clinical data and reprodu…

AIM: To investigate the value of amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) imaging and R2∗ mapping of cystic fluid in differentiating ovarian endometriotic cysts (OE) from other ovarian cystic (OOC) lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 4…

Endometriosis (EM) is one of the leading gynecological disorders, and associated with excessive functioning of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs). The current study was conducted to determine the expression and role of methyltransferase-like …

AIM: To determine the optimal repetition time (TR) of cine imaging for uterine peristalsis on 3 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-three young female volunteers (age range: 23-28 years, mean: 24.91±1.12 years…

Danazol, a modified testosterone, has been used to treat endometriosis and pretreatment before in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer, although its reproductive mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the effect of danazol on alloimm…

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to evaluate the presence of fractalkine in the endometrium of the uterus and the change of fractalkine protein levels during menstrual cycle. METHODS: Twelve samples of endometrium of the uterus we…

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of fractalkine in the ascites and the association between fractalkine levels in the ascites and endometriosis. METHODS: Peritoneal fluids and peripheral blood samples were…
