Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2024; 299:167-172. [PMID: 38875853 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.06.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the outcomes between patients undergoing surgery for ruptured endometrioma versus non-ruptured endometrioma. STUDY DESIGN The study was conducted at Health Sciences University, Etlik Zübeyde Hanım Training and Research Hospital Infertility Clinic. All patients who had a histopathology report of endometrioma between January 2014 and December 2020 were recruited. Patient files, surgery notes and laboratory values were extracted from the electronic recording system and patients with ruptured endometriomas (RE) or non-ruptured endometriomas (NRE) were compared. RESULTS Overall, 181 patients were recruited to the study. No rupture was detected in 146 (80.7 %) patients while 35 patients (19.3 %) underwent surgery for RE. Pre-operative CRP, CA 125, CA 19-9, CA 15-3, CEA and mean platelet volume (MPV) values and postoperative MPV and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) values were statistically significantly higher (p < 0.01) in the RE group compared to the NRE group. Post-operative lymphocyte (p = 0.029) and eosinophyl (p = 0.015) values were significantly lower in the RE group compared to the NRE group. Among the preoperative biomarkers that are evaluated for prediction of rupture; MPV, CA 19-9 and CA-15.3 had a high specifity (>75 %) but a rather low sensitivity (<60 %), meanwhile CRP, CA-125 and CEA had high sensitivity but a low specifity. CONCLUSION RE patients had significantly higher preoperative CRP, CA 125, CA 19-9, CA 15-3, CEA, and MPV values and postoperative MPV and NLR values while postoperative, lymphocyte and eosinophyl values were significantly lower compared with the NRE patients. Prospective studies with larger sample sizes are needed to determine biomarkers and parameters that can be used for non-invasive diagnosis of endometriosis and predict the possibility of endometrioma rupture.

Altered Monocyte and Lymphocyte Phenotypes Associated with Pathogenesis and Clinical Efficacy of Progestogen Therapy for Peritoneal Endometriosis in Adolescents. Cells 2024; 13:1187. [PMID: 39056769 PMCID: PMC11274988 DOI: 10.3390/cells13141187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Immunological imbalances characteristic of endometriosis may develop as early as the primary manifestations of the disease in adolescence. Objective: To evaluate subpopulation dynamics of monocytes and lymphocytes in peripheral blood and peritoneal fluid of adolescents with peritoneal endometriosis at diagnosis and after 1-year progestogen therapy. Methods: This study included 70 girls, 13-17 years old, diagnosed laparoscopically with peritoneal endometriosis (n = 50, main group) or paramesonephric cysts (n = 20, comparison group). Phenotypes of monocytes and lymphocytes of the blood and macrophages of the peritoneal fluid were analyzed by flow cytometry at diagnosis and during progestogen therapy. Results: Differential blood counts of CD16+ (p < 0.001) and CD86+ (p = 0.017) monocytes were identified as independent risk factors for peritoneal endometriosis in adolescents. During the treatment, cytotoxic lymphocytes CD56dimCD16bright (p = 0.049) and CD206+ monocytes (p < 0.001) significantly increased while CD163+ monocytes decreased in number (p = 0.017). The CD56dimCD16bright blood counts before (p < 0.001) and during progestogen therapy (p = 0.006), as well as CD206+ blood counts during the treatment (p = 0.038), were associated with the efficacy of pain relief after 1-year progestogen therapy. Conclusions: Adolescents with peritoneal endometriosis have altered counts of pro- and anti-inflammatory monocytes and lymphocytes both before and after 1-year progestogen therapy, correlating with treatment efficacy and justifying long-term hormonal therapy.

BMC Womens Health 2023; 23:576. [PMID: 37936116 PMCID: PMC10631181 DOI: 10.1186/s12905-023-02692-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compile existing evidence on the significance of the NLR in predicting endometriosis in order to aid clinical decision-making and outcomes. METHODS We searched ProQuest, Web of Science, and PubMed for related studies published before January 2, 2023. Standardized mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was reported for each outcome. Because a significant level of heterogeneity was found, we used the random-effects model to calculate pooled effects. We used Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for quality assessment. RESULTS Overall, 18 article with were included in the analysis. A random-effect model revealed that patients with endometriosis had elevated levels of NLR compared to healthy controls (SMD = 0.79, 95% CI = 0.33 to 1.25, P < 0.001). Patients with endometriosis had elevated levels of NLR compared to those with other benign tumors (SMD = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.17 to 1.53, P = 0.014). In addition, NLR level of patients with stage III and IV endometriosis was not different from that of patients with stage I and II endometrioma (SMD = 0.30, 95% CI = -0.14 to 0.74, P = 0.18). However, NLR level was not different between endometriosis patients with and without peritoneal lesions (SMD = -0.12, 95% CI = -0.34to 0.10, P = 0.28), between patients with and without endometrioma (SMD = 0.20, 95% CI = -0.15 to 0.55, P = 0.26) and between endometriosis patients with and without deep lesions (SMD = 0.04, 95% CI = -0.20 to 0.28, P = 0.72). The pooled sensitivity of NLR was 0.67 (95% CI = 0.60-0.73), and the pooled specificity was 0.68 (95% CI, 0.62-0.73). CONCLUSIONS NLR might be utilized in clinics as a possible predictor to help clinicians diagnose endometriosis in affected women.

Abstract
Females typically carry most of the burden of reproduction in mammals. In humans, this burden is exacerbated further, as the evolutionary advantage of a large and complex human brain came at a great cost of women's reproductive health. Pregnancy thus became a highly demanding phase in a woman's life cycle both physically and emotionally and therefore needs monitoring to assure an optimal outcome. Moreover, an increasing societal trend towards reproductive complications partly due to the increasing maternal age and global obesity pandemic demands closer monitoring of female reproductive health. This review first provides an overview of female reproductive biology and further explores utilization of large-scale data analysis and -omics techniques (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) towards diagnosis, prognosis, and management of female reproductive disorders. In addition, we explore machine learning approaches for predictive models towards prevention and management. Furthermore, mobile apps and wearable devices provide a promise of continuous monitoring of health. These complementary technologies can be combined towards monitoring female (fertility-related) health and detection of any early complications to provide intervention solutions. In summary, technological advances (e.g., omics and wearables) have shown a promise towards diagnosis, prognosis, and management of female reproductive disorders. Systematic integration of these technologies is needed urgently in female reproductive healthcare to be further implemented in the national healthcare systems for societal benefit.
