Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent disorder affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age, and the absence of reliable noninvasive diagnostic tools contributes to delayed diagnosis and disease progression. To identify potentia…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a non-invasive, blood-based diagnostic assay for endometriosis that performs accurately across menstrual cycle phases and complements existing imaging modalities. DESIGN: Multicenter case-control st…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting ~ 10% of reproductive-age women, often causing pelvic pain and infertility. Despite its prevalence, diagnosis remains delayed due to non-specific symptoms and lack of re…

MOTIVATION: Normalization is a critical step in quantitative PCR (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) experiments to ensure accurate and reproducible gene expression analysis. However, commonly used endogenous controls such as miR-16 for …

Endometriosis is a common yet often underdiagnosed condition, partly due to the lack of reliable diagnostics. This study examines the clinical feasibility of a blood-based, miRNA-driven test to diagnose endometriosis and address the challen…

INTRODUCTION: The clinical presentation of endometriosis varies widely, from asymptomatic to severe with often infertility also presented. Screening methods today include imaging, which is subject to operator expertise and poor specificity.…
