ObjectivesThe minimal important difference can be helpful in interpreting data from clinical trials. The objective of the study was to calculate the minimal important difference for improvement on the VAS scale for women with endometriosis.…
ObjectiveThe objective was to evaluate the effect of lignocaine on cytokine expression and secretion in vitro in peritoneal fluid macrophages and endometriotic stromal cells.DesignExperimental in vitro study on human cells.Population and sa…
Dysmenorrhea and infertility are the primary symptoms of endometriosis. Lignocaine (lidocaine, xylocaine) is an anesthetic that stabilizes membranes by blocking the action potential. The drug is used topically to induce local and regional a…
