Background: Effective management of endometriosis necessitates a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach. Networks or centres of expertise play a pivotal role in enhancing clinical care, fostering collaboration, and promoting innovative r…

This study investigates the effect of GnRHa pretreatment on pregnancy outcomes in artificial endometrial preparation for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (AC-FET) cycles. A systematic review of English language studies published before 1 Septe…

The causes of implantation failure remain a black box in reproductive medicine. The exact mechanism behind the regulation of endometrial receptivity is still unknown. Epigenetic modifications influence gene expression patterns and may alter…

Abstract Study question Does ovarian endometriosis deteriorate embryo quality in terms of morphokinetic parameters determined by time-lapse images? Summary answer Embryos from ovarian endometriosis patients accelerate their early developmen…

Endometriosis consists of major five features including inflammation, angiogenesis, MMP activation, adhesion formation and anti-apoptosis which all exhibit adverse effects and severely interfere with embryo implantation. Meta-analysis also …

Osteopontin (OPN) isoforms, including OPNb and OPNc, promote malignancy and may contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis, a benign disorder with multiple characteristics resembling malignant tumors. In our experiments, OPNb and OPNc …

Abstract To determine whether genetic predisposition to endometriosis varies depending on ethnicity and in association with expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) in a Taiwanese population. We conducted a genome-wide association study (G…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition in which stromal or glandular epithelium is implanted in extrauterine locations. Endometriosis causes detrimental effects on the granulosa cells, and phthalate interferes with th…

OBJECTIVE: We explored a method for the quantitative sonographic analysis of myometrial texture using computer-aided image analysis software to assess outcomes following treatment with gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist for aden…

To study the association between urinary phthalate metabolite levels, endometriosis, and their effects on human granulosa cells, we recruited patients who underwent laparoscopy to confirm endometriosis (n = 123) and control patients (n = 78…

Endometriosis shares similarities with several autoimmune diseases. The human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-C genotype is associated with several human autoimmune diseases. HLA-C is a ligand of killer cell immunoglobulin receptors (KIRs) and is a…

Ovarian follicle steroidogenesis associated with embryo quality results in a successful pregnancy. Each follicle consists of an oocyte surrounded by granulosa cells, which secrete several steroid and peptide hormones. Follicles harvested fr…

This study aimed to investigate the effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) treatment on the expression of neuritin 1 (NRN1) in women with ovarian endometriosis. We collected tissues and serum from women with endometriosis …

Endometriosis is the major cause of female infertility and has been linked to the action of estrogen and estrogen receptor (ER). A new pool of ERβ locates within mitochondria, which regulates the endometriotic cell withstanding external ins…

Sir, We were pleased to read the recent Letter to the Editor by Barra and Ferrero,1 who were interested in our recent publication in AOGS.2 In that report, we demonstrated the decreased expression of Tensin 1 (TNS1) in tissue and serum of w…

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease that affects up to 10% of women of reproductive age and accounts for up to 50% of female infertility cases. It has been highly associated with poorer outcomes of assisted reproduct…

INTRODUCTION: Many cell migration-related molecules are associated with endometriosis. Tensin 1 (TNS1), which has been implicated in cell migration, may play a role in endometriosis. The study goal was to evaluate the TNS1 expression in end…

OBJECTIVE: To report an infertility case of deep-infiltrating bladder endometriosis conceiving following robot-assisted surgery and modified gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) treatment. CASE REPORT: A 33 year-old infertile fema…
