INTRODUCTION: Retrospective studies and patient surveys investigating cannabis-based products for endometriosis have suggested potential benefits, highlighting the unmet need for effective therapeutic alternatives. This study evaluated the …

The aim of this study was to identify the key similarities between the eutopic endometrium of women with endometriosis and chlamydia-induced endometritis taking into account tissue microenvironment heterogeneity, transcript gene profile, an…

Endometriosis is responsible for pain symptoms with great impact on the patient's quality of life. Several medication lines have been studied aiming at its definitive treatment. Among them, angiogenesis inhibitor factors may be effective gi…

Eutopic endometrium appears to be crucial for endometriosis development. Despite of the evident importance, data regarding the cellular microenvironment remain unclear. Our objective was to explore the tissue microenvironment heterogeneity,…

PurposeQualitative research has received growing attention in the multidisciplinary investigation of patients' perceptions about chronic diseases. The purpose of this systematic review was to characterize the usage of qualitative research i…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of strength exercises on remote pain sensitivity in women with endometriosis-related symptoms. DESIGN: A quasi-experimental study. SETTING: University Hospital, a tertiary health unit. SUBJECTS: Twenty-o…

Abstract Objective To analyze the effect of thalidomide on the progression of endometriotic lesions experimentally induced in rats and to characterize the pattern of cell proliferation by immunohistochemical Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antig…

AIM: To evaluate the clinical features, diagnostic routine, treatment, and prognosis of patients with double uterus with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis at a University Hospital. METHODS: A retrospective study analyzin…

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the patterns of cell differentiation, proliferation, and tissue invasion in eutopic and ectopic endometrium of rabbits with induced endometriotic lesions via a well- known experimental model, 4 and 8 weeks after t…

Objective. To report a case of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) in which there were two nonfunctional rudimentary uteruses with the presence of ovarian endometrioma, corroborating that there are valid alternative theories to t…

Abstract — Chronic pelvic pain is a common clinical condition with negative consequences for many aspects of women’s life. The clinical presentation is heterogeneous and the involvement of several body systems impairs the identification of …

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of capsaicin receptor (transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 [TRPV1]) in the peritoneal endometriosis foci of women with and without chronic pelvic pain (CPP).MethodsA case-control study was co…

Similar to dyslipidemia, the oxidative stress and intrinsic inflammatory status may be associated with the development of endometriosis. Thus, we performed a cross-sectional study and found that women with endometriosis had an increased low…

ObjectiveTo document a rare case of endometriosis in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles.DesignCase report.SettingTertiary care center.Patient(s)A 30-year-old fertile woman presented with moderate dysmenorrhea associated with calf pain and…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of capsaicin receptor [transient receptor potential vanilloid type-1 (TRPV1)] in the peritoneum of women with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). METHODS: A case-control study was conducted on 25 women with …

ObjectiveTo characterize the pattern of cell proliferation and apoptosis of eutopic and ectopic endometrium in rabbits after endometrium implantation for the experimental induction of endometriosis.DesignAnimal experimental study.SettingSec…
