miR-205-5p inhibits human endometriosis progression by targeting ANGPT2 in endometrial stromal cells.

Background: miRNA expression profiles in ectopic endometrium (EC) serving as pathophysiologic genetic fingerprints contribute to determining endometriosis progression; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown.

Methods: miRNA microarray analysis was used to determine the expression profiling of EC fresh tissues. qRT-PCR was performed to screen miR-205-5p expression in EC tissues.

[Effect of GnRHa therapy following conservative laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis on clinical pregnant rate in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility].

Objective: To investigate the impact of conservative laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis with postoperative gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) therapy on the pregnancy outcomes in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility.

Methods: The clinical data were collected from the patients with endometriosis-associated infertility undergoing conservative laparoscopic surgery in our department between January, 2011 and December, 2016. The patients were divided into laparoscopic surgery only group (without any other treatments) and postoperative GnRha therapy group, and the pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups at different time points during the follow-up.
