STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate differences in the likelihood of endometriosis or adenomyosis diagnosis across genetically-defined ancestry groups (African, Admixed American, East Asian, European, and South Asian), and to determine whether soc…
We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis across 14 biobanks worldwide, including 32% non-European patient participants, as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative (GBMI). Ou…
Endometriosis is a complex and heterogeneous condition affecting 10% of reproductive-age women, and yet, it often goes undiagnosed for several years. Limited observed heritability (7%) of large genetic association studies may be attributabl…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects 10% of reproductive-age women, and yet, it goes undiagnosed for 3.6 years on average after symptoms onset. Despite large GWAS meta-analyses (N > 750,000), only a few dozen causal loci have been identified. …
We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis consisting of a large portion (31%) of non-European samples across 14 biobanks worldwide as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative …
Endometriosis is a chronic, complex disease for which there are vast disparities in diagnosis and treatment between sociodemographic groups. Clinical presentation of endometriosis can vary from asymptomatic disease-often identified during (…
BACKGROUND: Obliteration of the posterior cul-de-sac is a challenging, often unexpected surgical finding. Developing the dissection skills required to manage this finding during laparoscopy is essential for optimizing treatment of many pain…
BackgroundGiven no consensus in the literature, this study sought to determine if a protocol of measuring serum estradiol and progesterone the day prior to frozen embryo transfer (FET) improves likelihood of pregnancy and livebirth.MethodsT…
Preterm birth (PTB) affects approximately 1 in 10 pregnancies and contributes to approximately 50% of neonatal mortality. However, despite decades of research, little is understood about the etiology of PTB, likely due to the multifactorial…
BackgroundThe lack of noninvasive methods to study dysmenorrhea has resulted in poor understanding of the mechanisms underlying pain, insufficient diagnostic tests, and limited treatment options. To address this knowledge gap, we have devel…
ObjectiveTo determine whether live birth rates differ by type of endometrial preparation in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles.DesignRetrospective cohort study.SettingAcademic fertility center.Patient(s)Reproductive-aged women undergoing a…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of endometriosis, alone or in combination with other infertility diagnoses, on IVF outcomes. DESIGN: Population-based retrospective cohort study of cycles from the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technolog…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The objective of this study is to review an evidence-based approach to surgical treatment of key chronic pelvic pain (CPP) contributors emphasizing the importance of preoperative evaluation and counseling. RECENT FINDINGS…
Endometriosis is associated with infertility; however, the etiology of this association is unclear, thus complicating management. Several mechanisms of pathogenesis have been proposed; however, no one theory has been implicated. Medical the…
Knowledge of mucins and their multiple roles in various normal and pathological processes has improved greatly in the past two decades. Mucins belong to a family of glycoproteins characterised by densely O-glycosylated repetitive domains an…
Endometriosis, a common cause of cyclic and chronic pelvic pain in women, can present with a multitude of symptoms. Numerous case reports exist describing the involvement of the sciatic nerve with endometriosis; however, there are few repor…
Myomectomy remains the surgical option of choice for women with symptomatic leiomyomata who desire uterine conservation or in particular future fertility. The ability to enucleate leiomyomata and repair the uterus with a multilayer-sutured …
