(1) Background: Oxidative stress markers in the follicular fluid and serum of the patient with IVF results (number of fertilized oocytes, number of embryos, cumulative pregnancy rate) are important in establishing the causes of infertility.…
This retrospective cohort study was conducted on 1148 males who presented along with their partners for infertility management at the PIVET Medical Centre between 2013 and 2022 and had a sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) assay performed by Halo…
Stem cells, with their remarkable capacity for differentiation into diverse cell types, are vital for the development as well as maintenance of health and homeostasis. Two unique abilities set them apart from other cells: self-renewal and t…
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most frequent form of lung cancer and represents a set of histological entities that have an ominous long-term prognosis, for example, adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma and large cell carcinoma. Bo…
The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiological 1-year outcomes of uterine artery embolization (UAE) performed in a selected population of women with symptomatic myomas and who do not wish to conceive. Between January 2004…
The role of estrogens and progesterone in the development and progression of endometrial cancer is well-established, but there are very little data about the role of androgens. There are five different androgens produced in women: dehydroep…
This study aims to compare dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) with T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) in defining the depth of myometrial invasion in endometrial carcinoma. This retrospective study included 32 subjects w…
Screenwide is a case-control study (2017−2021) including women with incident endometrial and ovarian cancers (EC and OC), BRCA1/2 and MMR pathogenic variant carriers, and age-matched controls from three centers in Spain. Participants comple…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting women in their reproductive age. Due to non-specific symptoms, women with endometriosis are often misdiagnosed or are accurately diagnosed only after several years. Diagn…
During the past decade, a stem cell-based hypothesis has emerged (among many others) to explain the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The initial hypothesis proposed that endometriosis arose from a single or a few specific cells with stem cell…
BACKGROUND: Although several treatments are currently available for chronic pelvic pain, 30-60% of patients do not respond to them. Therefore, these therapeutic options require a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying endometrios…
The objective of the present pilot study is to compare operative outcomes between vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) and single-port access (SPA) adnexectomy. Subjects were patients who underwent adnexectomy fo…
Hysterectomy is commonly performed for benign gynecological diseases. Minimally invasive surgical approaches offer several advantages. Unfortunately, few studies have compared the outcomes of different types of minimally invasive surgeries.…
Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition characterised by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus and is associated with pain and infertility. Currently, the gold standard for endometriosis diagnosis is laparoscopic ex…
Objective: To investigate the differential expression of microRNA (miRNA) in patients with endometrial cancer and its relationship with prognosis and survival. Method: We used The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database to analyze differentiall…
Endometriosis is a gynecological pathology that affects between 6 and 15% of women of childbearing age. One of the manifestations is intestinal deep infiltrating endometriosis. This condition may force patients to resort to surgical treatme…
Background: To investigate whether deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB) improves surgical conditions and postoperative pain compared to moderate block, in patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery. Methods: A single blind, randomize…
The human endometrium is one of the most regenerative tissues in the body, undergoing over 400 cycles of menstrual shedding and regeneration during reproductive life [...].
This study’s objective was to compare the predictive validity of the three most utilized classification scores for endometriosis, #Enzian, EFI, and rASRM, in achieving a spontaneous pregnancy or pregnancy via assisted reproductive technolog…
Adenomyosis is related to infertility and miscarriages, but so far there are no robust in vitro models that reproduce its pathological features to study the molecular mechanisms involved in this disease. Endometrial organoids are in vitro 3…
Objectives. Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common complaint of women in different age groups, and endometrial biopsy is widely used to investigate the underlying causes. The aim of this observational study was to assess factors influe…
BACKGROUND: This is an investigation of the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and its correlation with the risk of ectopic pregnancy (EP). METHODS: The cohort study includes 11,239 patients with newly diagnosed HPV infections between 20…
(1) Background: A cesarean scar defect may cause localized inflammation of the endometrial tissue, and various researchers believe that the presence of a cesarean scar defect is associated with chronic endometritis. However, there is no rep…
Background: Endometriosis is a complex gynecologic disorder that has been associated with a higher risk of ovarian cancer. The purpose of this work is to determine to what extent a history of endometriosis is a risk factor for ovarian cance…
