Association of FCRL3 Genetic Polymorphisms With Endometriosis-Related Infertility Risk

Association of FCRL3 Genetic Polymorphisms With Endometriosis-Related Infertility Risk

The Fc receptor-like 3 (FCRL3) gene was reported to be linked to a variety of autoimmune diseases, including endometriosis-related infertility. However, this linkage has not been studied in Chinese population and there has been no meta-analysis on the interrelationship of FCRL3 gene and endometriosis-related infertility. The aim of the study was to investigate the association between FCRL3 gene...

P-241: Association of ITPA Polymorphisms rs1127354 with Infertility

Background: Infertility is a relatively common problem that affects couples worldwide. It is estimated that approximately 1 in 6 couples will experience difficulties in reproducing, defined as a failure to conceive after two years of unprotected sexual intercourse. The molecular and genetic factors underlying the cause of infertility remain largely undiscovered. ITPA is an inosine triphosphatas...

MUC4 gene polymorphisms associate with endometriosis development and endometriosis-related infertility

BACKGROUND Mucin 4 (MUC4) plays an important role in protecting and lubricating the epithelial surface of reproductive tracts, but its role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis is largely unknown. METHODS To correlate MUC4 polymorphism with the risk of endometriosis and endometriosis-related infertility, we performed a case-control study of 140 patients and 150 healthy women. Six unique singl...

I-29: Surgical Management of Endometriosis Related Infertility

The precise relationship between endometriosis and infertility is debated. Surgery is considered to play a role within the framework of the therapeutic options to cure infertile women with the disease even though its effectiveness is generally modest. In fact, there is unquestionably the need to improve surgical techniques in this area. Specifically, two main aspects require optimization: 1. pr...
