This observational analytic cross-sectional study evaluated 40 endometriosis patients (diagnosed by ASRM criteria and transvaginal ultrasound) to assess correlations between degree of pain measured by VAS and blood serum levels of estradiol, IL-1β, and nitrite oxide (NO), with samples collected in 2020 and analyzed using univariate/bivariate/multivariate statistics. The authors report that higher pain scores were associated with “abnormal” estradiol, IL-1β, and NO levels, with bivariate P values of 0.024 (estradiol), 0.000 (IL-1β), and 0.000 (NO), and multivariate logistic regression suggesting all three biomarkers influenced pain degree (R² reported as 0.19). A key limitation is the cross-sectional design, which measures variables simultaneously, so temporal or causal relationships are not established. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it links pain severity in endometriosis patients with serum estradiol, IL-1β, and nitrite oxide levels.

Endometriosis is an inflammation and estrogen-dependent disease that affects 6-10% of women during their reproductive years and up to 50% of women receiving fertility treatment. When the endometrial tissue is present in the myometrium, it is called adenomyosis. The site of endometriosis is often found in the pelvic peritoneum but it can be found in other places such as the ovaries and utero -sacral ligaments [3,4]. Endometriosis represents a very significant problem in gynecology, affecting 10% -20% of women who are still menstruating. Found in 30% -45% of infertile women. In the world, 10% of women are estimated to have endometriosis. Endometriosis cases cause 20% of all gynecological operations and is the only cause of non -obstetric hospitalization (> 5%) in women aged 15-44 years [5-7]. For this reason, it is necessary to investigate the correlation between the degree of pain and Estradiol hormones levels, interleukin,1β (IL-1β) levels and nitric oxide in the blood serum of people with endometriosi s. This study aims to analyze the correlation between the degree of pain and Estradiol hormones levels, interleukin,1β (IL-1β) levels and nitric oxide in the blood serum of people with endometriosis. *email:[email protected] Revista de Chimie https://revistadechimie.ro https://doi.org/10.37358/Rev.Chim.1949 Rev. Chim., 73 (3), 2022, 82-86 83 https://doi.org/10.37358/RC.22.3.8537 2.Materials and methods This study was an observational analytic study with a cross sectional comparative study design which the dependent and independent variables were obtained at the same time. The sample in this study was 40 patients with endometriosis diagnosed by a specialist in Gynecological Obstetrics in accordance with the ASRM criteria and transvaginal ultrasound examination in Hospital. This study was started from January to November 2020 in the City of Padang. Retrieving data by measuring the d egree of pain in patients with endometriosis using a Visual analog scale / VAS (mm) and Estradiol levels, interleukin, 1β (IL-1β) and nitric oxide in blood serum in Andalas University Laboratory. This study explores the differences in the degree of pain in endometriosis sufferers with Estradiol levels. interleukin, 1β (IL-1β) and nitric oxide in blood serum. Then analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables. The dependent variables of this study were levels of the hormone estradiol; IL-1β levels; and NO, while the independent variable is the degree of endometriosis pain. 3.Results and discussions Based on the results of research conducted on the Relationship between Pain Degree and Estradiol Hormone Levels, Interleukin -1β (IL-1β) Levels and Nitrite Oxide in Blood Serum for Endometriosis Patients in 2020. with a sample size of 40 endometriosis sufferers. the following research results were obtained: Table 1. Distribution of clinical frequency of Menstrual pain in patients with endometriosis Variable Percentage n Low 12.5 5 Moderate 35.0 14 Weight 52.5 21 Based on Table 1, it shows that of the 40 respondents, 21 people with endometriosis experienced severe pain (52.5%), while for moderate pain there were 14 people (35%) and 5 people with low pain degrees (12.5). Most endometriosis sufferers experienced severe pain degrees of 52.5%. The results of the research that has been done, it is known that from 40 respondents It was found that the mean degree of pain in endometriosis patients was 5.98 with a standard deviation of 1.942. The lowest pain degree score was 2 and the highest was 9 in 2020. From the results of the research obtained after measuring the degree of pain using the Vas scale in endometriosis sufferers, it was found that 52.5% of respondents had a high pain scale above the average. This is consistent with the research that endometriosis patients show a higher VAS value compared to normal women on the same pain stimulus. This suggests the possibility of sensitization in endo - metriosis patients [8-10]. Table 2. The Correlation between the variable degree of pain and Estradiol levels in blood serum of endometriosis patients Estradiol Pain scale Total P value Low Moderate weight normal 0 2 2 4 0.024 , 0% 50.0% 50.0% 100.0% abnormal 5 12 19 36 13.9% 33.3% 52.8% 100.0% Total 5 14 21 40 12.5% 35.0% 52.5% 100.0% Revista de Chimie https://revistadechimie.ro https://doi.org/10.37358/Rev.Chim.1949 Rev. Chim., 73 (3), 2022, 82-86 84 https://doi.org/10.37358/RC.22.3.8537 Based on Table 2. It shows 4 people with endometriosis with normal estradiol levels with 2 people with moderate pain degrees (50%) and 2 people with severe pain degrees (50%). While there were 36 patients with endometriosis with abnormal estradiol levels with 5 people (13.9%) with low pain degrees, 12 people with moderate pain degrees (33.3%) and 19 severe pain degrees (52.8%). Most endometriosis sufferers experience severe pain with abnormal estradiol levels. The statistical test results obtained by the value of P = 0.024, then p <α (0.05), it can be concluded that there is a correlation between the degree of pain and the level of the hormone estradiol in the blood serum of patients with endometriosis. Table 3. The correlation between the variable degree of pain and levels of IL1β in blood serum of endometriosis patients IL1β Pain scale Total P value Low Moderate Weight normal 0 1 0 1 0,000 , 0% 100.0% , 0% 100.0% abnormal 5 13 21 39 12.8% 33.3% 53.8% 100.0% Total 5 14 21 40 12.5% 35.0% 52.5% 100.0% Based on Table 3, it shows that 1 person with endometriosis with normal blood serum IL1β levels with moderate pain degrees. Meanwhile, there were 39 patients with endometriosis with abnormal estradiol levels with 5 people (12.8%) with low pain degrees, 13 people with moderate pain degrees (33.3%) and 21 people with severe pain degrees (53 .8%). Endometriosis sufferers experience the most severity of pain with abnormal IL1β levels. The statistical test results showed that the value of P = 0.000, then p <α (0.05), it can be concluded that there is a correlation between the degree of pain and the IL1β level in the blood serum of patients with endometriosis [11-16]. Table 4. The Correlation between the variable degree of pain and levels of Nitric Oxide (NO) in blood serum of endometriosis patients NO Pain scale Total P value low moderate Weight abnormal 5 14 21 40 0,000 12.5% 35.0% 52.5% 100.0% Total 5 14 21 40 12.5% 35.0% 52.5% 100.0% Based on Table 4, it was found that all (100%) endometriosis sufferers had abnormal blood serum NO levels. Endometriosis sufferers experience the most severe degrees of pain having abnormal NO levels. The statistical test results showed that the value of P = 0.000, then p <α (0.05), it can be concluded that there is a correlation between the degree of pain and the NO level in the blood serum of endometriosis sufferers. This is in accordance with the increase in the number and activity of macrophages in endometriosis patients is accompanied by excessive release of cytokines and immune mediators such as NO (a type of ROS). Previous studies have also shown that increased NO and NOS are found in endometriosis patients [17-24]. Table 5. Results of Multivariate Analysis of a sample of patients with endometriosis No. Independent Variable P value R Square 1 Estradiol 0.03 0.19 2 IL-1β 0.02 3 NO 0.01 Revista de Chimie https://revistadechimie.ro https://doi.org/10.37358/Rev.Chim.1949 Rev. Chim., 73 (3), 2022, 82-86 85 https://doi.org/10.37358/RC.22.3.8537 Based on Table 5 is the final result of the multivariate analysis of multiple logistic regression tests. Because the levels of estradiol, IL-1β and NO have p <0.05, these variables were not excluded from the model and all three are factors that influence the degree of pain in endometriosis sufferers. In addition, the R square value is 0.19, this means that the variable levels of estradiol, IL -1β and NO have a contribution of 19% to the degree of pain in endometriosis patients. 4. Conclusions Based on the results of the research conducted the results showed that the levels were increased from normal, so there was a close correlation between the degree of pain and blood serum levels of estradiol, IL-1β and NO and the threshold of menstrual pain. The higher the blood s erum levels of estradiol, IL - 1β and NO accompanied by the heavier a person's menstrual pain, it helps prove the existence of an endometriosis.the year 2020.
