The intricate dialogue between endocrine signaling and immune-inflammatory homeostasis at the maternal-fetal interface remains one of the most complex frontiers in reproductive biology. In the recent review titled “Hormonal imbalance-mediat…

The dynamic interplay between hormonal signalling and immune-inflammatory homeostasis is pivotal for regulating endometrial decidualization, which is indispensable for successful embryo implantation. Hormonal imbalance-mediated inflammation…

BACKGROUND: Caffeine has been suggested to have a relationship with endometriosis as a widely consumed psychoactive substance, although findings are inconsistent. OBJECTIVE: This study explored the potential associations and threshold effe…

Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease associated with inflammation. Vitamin D has anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, anti-oxidative, and immunomodulatory effects. Whether vitamin D levels are correlated with endometriosis is a subjec…

BACKGROUND: Thyroid autoimmunity (TAI) is associated with infertility and complications during pregnancy. However, the prevalence of thyroid autoantibodies in women with infertility remains unclear due to variability in study designs, sampl…

INTRODUCTION: Infertility affects 8-12% of couples worldwide, with 15-30% classified as unexplained infertility (UI). Thyroid autoimmunity (TAI), the most common autoimmune disorder in women of reproductive age, may impact fertility and pre…

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to synthesize disparate studies to investigate potential impact of microbial presence in FF of infertile women on IVF outcomes. METHODS: Following preliminary searches to find medical subject heading (MeSH…

RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the levels of progranulin (PGRN) expression in primary endometrial stromal cells (ESC) and endometrial tissue in patients with endometriosis (EMS)? What is the role and mechanism of action of PGRN in EMS? DESIGN…
