Presence of embryo-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent culture medium (SCM) represents a promising non-invasive alternative to the conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). The present study evaluated the feasibility of using c…
The study aimed to evaluate whether there is a difference in the expression of programmed cell death 1 ligand (PD-L1) in the cell lining of endometrioma between cases with and without recurrent disease. Additionally, we sought to assess the…
OBJECTIVE: To study the prostanoid profile of the endometria of patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF), unexplained infertility (UIF), and recurrent miscarriages (RM), and to compare them with the endometria of healthy fertile c…
PURPOSE: This is a retrospective cohort study that evaluates the postoperative pain findings of a consecutive series of laparoscopic surgeries for deep endometriosis (DE). METHODS: This multi-center retrospective cohort study was carried o…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship of clinical pregnancy rates with bone morphogenetic proteins 2-4-7 (BMP 2, 4, 7), growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF 9), and Emmprin levels in follicular fluid of intracytoplasmic sperm injection pati…
OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the immunohistochemical (IHC) differences of endometrioma tissues that may have the potential to progress to ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) by using KRAS, HNF1β, PIK3CA, PPP2R1A, and ARID1A as biomarkers. STUDY…
OBJECTIVE: To see whether the oocytes retrieved from an ovary with an endometrioma would develop into embryos with aberrant timings of cleavage as assessed using time-lapse monitoring (TLM) and poorer morphologic quality compared with sibli…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a well-established reason for infertility and optimal management and ovulation induction protocols in infertility patients with endometriosis are debated. Operative compared with conservative management with a…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes of long gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and GnRH-antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocols in endometriosis patients who have un…
Purpose: The objective of the current study was to evaluate whether the analysis of different proinflammatory and angiogenesis-regulating cytokines in a well-defined patient population can be accurate for the diagnosis of endometriosis at d…
This study was designed to determine the activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase and some of the lipid peroxidation indices (malondialdehyde and total sulfhydryl groups) in eutopic and ectopic endometria of patients wi…
