Dysmenorrhea has psychological, physical, and behavioral impact on adolescent girls in different regions. Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the overall prevalence of dysmenorrhea, its pain intensity and associated symptoms in Ethiopia and compare with other countries. Methods: Literatures from PubMed, MEDLINE, EMABSE, CINHAL, SCOPUS, Hinari, Africa journals, and Google scholar were retrieved. Eligible cross-sectional studies were included for meta-analysis. I2 statistics was calculated to check heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis based on outcome of interest was performed. Sensitivity analysis was undertaken to examine the level of heterogeneity. Results: The prevalence of overall and primary dysmenorrhea in Ethiopia was 72% (95%CI 68–77) and 72.27% (95%CI 69.8–75.33) respectively. Back pain 56.62% (95%CI 46.68–66.57) and fatigue 51.51% (95%CI 40.08–62.94) were more common than headache 29.15% (95%CI 18.16–40.14) whereas moderate pain 41.03% (95%CI 33.98–48.07) was more common than mild 31.83% (95%CI 21.61–42.05) and severe pain intensity 21.57% (95%CI 14.24–28.89).

Methods: The intermethod and intraobserver reliability of endometrioma volumes were assessed in 16 women diagnosed with endometriosis through laparoscopy with histologic confirmation and presenting with uni- or bilateral endometriomas. In total, volumes of 23 endometriomas were assessed with two-dimensional and three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound and 6 mm magnetic resonance imaging. Examinations took place at two moments in one menstrual cycle: day 2–4 (T0) and day 20–22 (T1). Results: The intraclass correlation for intraobserver reliability is good to very good for all three techniques ranging from the lowest value of 0.953 to the highest of 1.000. MRI has the most narrow limits of agreement (−3.93 to 4.53), followed by XI VOCAL (−5.16 to 5.65) while VOCAL has the widest limits of agreement (−10.22 to 11.39). Intraclass correlations are poor in the comparison of XI VOCAL to MRI, moderate between VOCAL and XI VOCAL, and good for the comparison between VOCAL and MRI. Limits of agreement vary per technique. When comparing 3D imaging techniques with 2D TVUS, XI VOCAL versus 2D TVUS provide the smallest limits of agreement. Conclusions: MRI and XI VOCAL provide the best intraobserver reliability. The different imaging techniques are not interchangeable. As TVUS is a more readily available and cost-efficient imaging technique the usage of XI VOCAL is advised.","PeriodicalId":15725,"journal":{"name":"Journal of endometriosis and pelvic pain disorders","volume":"14 1","pages":"80 - 86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46855940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methodology: Participating patients were recruited via three specialized centers for fibroids and endometriosis. To assess their subjective theories concerning the cause of their illness, we used a questionnaire based on the revised Illness Perceptions Questionnaire (IPQ-R). We also gathered and evaluated data relating to sociodemographic factors and psychological distress or possible anxieties using the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and the Generalised Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7). Results: We were able to analyze data from 201 patients with fibroids and 212 patients with endometriosis. About 94.4% of the patients had one or more subjective theories concerning the cause of their illness. Both groups perceived “stress or worry” to be the most probable cause of their illness. Compared to endometriosis patients, patients with fibroids were more likely to assume “aging” and “heredity” as the cause of their illness. Endometriosis patients, on the other hand, were more likely to choose theories pertaining to the “environmental influences and immune system” category. The patients’ age, formal education, and conspicuous score values in the K10 or GAD-7 questionnaire proved to be important factors influencing their beliefs about the cause of illness. Conclusion: Patients perceive stress and psychological strain as possible causes for their illness. It might be beneficial to take this information into account in conversations between doctors and patients and when drawing up psychosomatic-gynecological treatment plans.","PeriodicalId":15725,"journal":{"name":"Journal of endometriosis and pelvic pain disorders","volume":"14 1","pages":"71 - 79"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42728148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Controversy exists about which method is better for providing pain relief. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized control trials (RCTs) comparing the efficacy of excision versus ablation for improving the most frequently encountered endometriosis pain symptoms: dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, non-cyclic pelvic pain, and dyschezia. Methods: A search from inception to May 2020 was conducted in PubMed, MEDLINE, Clinicaltrials.gov, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science. RCTs comparing excision versus ablation for peritoneal endometriosis were included if they assessed dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, dyschezia, and pelvic pain/non-menstrual pain. Exclusion criteria included extra-peritoneal endometriosis or endometriomas, and non-English publications. Publications were assessed for risk of bias and quality of evidence using Cochrane risk of bias tool (RoB 2) and GradePro. Results: Of the 2025 records identified initially, four met inclusion criteria. The sample sizes of the included studies ranged from 24 to 133 participants. The excision and ablation groups included 204 participants each. There was no difference after excision or ablation for dysmenorrhea when comparing the mean change in pain scores from baseline to 12 months after surgery (−0.31, 95% CI −1.66, 1.04, p = 0.65), dyspareunia (−0.24, 95% CI −1.78, 1.30, p = 0.76), dyschezia (−0.72, 95% CI −1.94, 0.50, p = 0.25), or non-cyclic pain (−0.78, 95% CI −2.47, 0.91, p = 0.37).

This change could explain the cellular response and changes characteristic of endometriosis. In previous studies, we established that endometriosis affects the CRABP2:FABP5 ratio in an in vitro environment, shifting toward apoptosis and differentiation with higher CRABP2, and anti-apoptosis with higher levels of FABP5. Intervention(s): Endometriosis was induced in female baboons with intraperitoneal inoculation of menstrual endometrium (n = 2–4). Tissue was harvested via endometrectomy during different stages of the menstrual cycle as well at 3, 6, and 12 month timepoints after inoculation with endometriosis. Main outcome measure(s): Real time PCR was used to quantify STRA6 (a gene responsible for retinol uptake), CRABP2 (a gene necessary for apoptotic and anti-apoptotic estrogenic RA effects), and FABP5 (a gene that mediates the anti-apoptotic actions of RA). Results: STRA6 and CRABP2 expression were highest in the proliferative phase and lowest in the late secretory phase. FABP5 expression remained stable throughout the 12 months following the induction of the disease, whereas STRA6 and CRABP2 continued to decrease during the same period. Conclusions: Our study confirms that a shift in the CRABP2:FABP5 ratio has similar in vivo effects as it does in vitro: changing RA expression with disease induction and progression. As CRABP2 may be important in determining cell fate in the endometrium, gene expression changes could contribute to the anti-apoptotic behavior of affected cells. As expression changes more during progression, earlier rather than later treatment becomes more critical in reducing the rate of disease progression.","PeriodicalId":15725,"journal":{"name":"Journal of endometriosis and pelvic pain disorders","volume":"14 1","pages":"19 - 24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48617664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The serum levels of vitamin D were insufficient in 94 (88.7%) and 82 (77.3%) has overweight or obesity. However, only 50 (47.2%) of participants have a diagnostic of uterine leiomyomas. BMI not increased the probability of having insufficient levels of vitamin D or uterine leiomyomas. Only, age (> 45 years) and levels of vitamin D (<30 ng/mL) were predictors of uterine leiomyomas (OR 10.345, 95% CI 2.737–39.095; p = 0.001; and OR 2.26, 95% CI 1.011–5.073; p = 0.014), respectively. Conclusions: Insufficient levels of vitamin D are common in Mexican women. Age and hypovitaminosis D are possible risk factors in the development of uterine leiomyomas in Mexican women.","PeriodicalId":15725,"journal":{"name":"Journal of endometriosis and pelvic pain disorders","volume":"14 1","pages":"14 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42279274","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
