Ableitung eines Grenzwertes für die Diagnoseverzögerung bei Endometriose
This study aimed to derive a threshold for diagnostic delay in endometriosis, investigating when the time from symptom onset to diagnosis negatively impacts disease-specific and patient-relevant outcomes.

This study utilized data from the German subsample of the EndoCost trial to determine a specific threshold for diagnostic delay in endometriosis. Through descriptive and analytical statistical methods, including logistic regression, researchers identified a cut-off value of five years that significantly discriminates between patients with short and long diagnostic delays based on disease parameters. The findings indicate that diagnosing endometriosis within less than five years of symptom onset may minimize the risk of an unfavorable disease course, highlighting early symptom onset as a key risk factor for prolonged delay. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on establishing a quantitative threshold for diagnostic delay to improve patient outcomes and target adolescent populations for better awareness and care.
