BACKGROUND: Currently, the use of dienogest in clinical practice has increased significantly, and many studies have focused on its effectiveness and safety in the treatment of endometriosis and adenomyosis; however, the effects of treatment…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy and safety of Sanjie Analgesic Capsule (SAC) in Chinese patients with endometriosis-associated pain. METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted at 15 cent…

青少年子宫腺肌病并不少见，主要症状是痛经和月经过多，一般是进展性疾病。本文从病因、高危因素、发病年龄、临床表现、诊断、治疗等方面与大家一起探讨青少年子宫腺肌病，并呼吁大家要重视青少年子宫腺肌病的早期诊治。超声等影像学检查可以早期发现、早期诊断青少年子宫腺肌病。青少年子宫腺肌病的治疗不仅要缓解疼痛、减少出血，还要注重延缓疾病进展。子宫明显增大或合并子宫肌瘤者，推荐使用促性腺激素释放激素激动剂配合“反向添加”作为长期维持治疗直至尝试生育。青少年还处于生长发育阶段，长期用药时更应注…

BACKGROUND: Polypoid endometriosis (PEM) is a rare and unique type of endometriosis. To date, no article has provided a systematic report of this disease. The current article provides a complete report on rare PEM based on ultrasound, magne…

BACKGROUND: The analgesic effect produced by the intra-arterial injection of lidocaine in patients undergoing uterine artery embolization has been proven to be safe and effective. Nevertheless, a significant degree of pain is typically expe…

Objective: To investigate the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of ureteral endometriosis with hydronephrosis. Methods: A retrospective study was performed of 92 cases diagnosed as ureteral endometriosis with surgery confirmed in Peking Un…

Objective: To further understand the current status of diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis in China, the implementation of guideline in different levels of hospitals, and the need for continuing education in endometriosis among primary…

Objective: To measure the coagulation function of patients with adenomyosis so as to explore its relationship with increased menstrual amount and its clinical significance. Methods: From January 2014 to May 2019, clinical data of patients w…

Objective: To evaluate the incidence of deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) among patients of pelvic endometriosis confirmed by pathology and to make analysis of its clinical and pathological characteristics. Methods: From January 1, 20…

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease, and estrogen receptor 2 (ESR2) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of ovarian endometriosis by promoting cell invasion. Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) plays suppressive roles in several…

Objective: To evaluate the effects of parthenolide on estradiol-synthesizing enzyme, steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR), and ER isoforms,VEGF in human endometriotic stromal cells. Methods: Primary endometriotic stromal cells were…

Objective: To compare the expression of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in tissue and fluid samples from patients with endometriosis, and investigate whether LIF and IL-6 …

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease. Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) activation has been shown to inhibit estrogen signaling in breast cancer and testicular tumors. However, the role of FXR in endometriosis is still poorly understood.…

Steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1, encoded by NR5A1) and estrogen receptor beta (ERβ, encoded by ESR2), which are highly expressed in endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs), contribute to the pathogenesis of endometriosis, but the regulation mechani…

BACKGROUND: The endometriosis fertility index (EFI) has a predictive value for pregnancy after surgery. In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is a good treatment to infertility. This study aimed to provide external validation …

UNLABELLED: Estrogen receptor beta (ERβ, encoded by ESR2 gene) and cytochrome P450 aromatase (encoded by CYP19A1 gene) play critical roles in endometriosis, and the levels of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in the peritoneal fluid are …

CONTEXT: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease. P38 and C-jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitors may have a therapeutic effect on endometriosis through regulation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-induced estrogen metabolism. OBJECTIVE…

BACKGROUND: Cytochrome P450 aromatase (encoded by the CYP19A1/aromatase gene) plays a critical physiologic role in endometriosis. Metformin is known to suppress prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-induced CYP19A1 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in huma…

Biofilm formations play an important role in Staphylococcus aureus pathogenesis and contribute to antibiotic treatment failures in biofilm-associated infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/…

CONTEXT: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease affecting reproductive women. Metformin could have a therapeutic effect on endometriosis through regulation of local estrogen production. OBJECTS: The aim of this study was to investi…
