Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Investigators aimed to measure the serum levels of adropin, salusin-α, netrin-1, and nesfatin-1, anti-inflammatory effects of which have been demonstrated previously, in endometriosis patients and to find out any association of them with insulin resistance.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Adropin (ng/L)

Detailed Description

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial gland and stroma outside the endometrial cavity affecting almost 10% of the women of reproductive age. Although benign, it disrupts the quality of life of the inflicted patients through symptoms such as dysmenorrhae, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. The pathogenesis of endometriosis has not yet been clearly elucidated, however, recent papers implies an underpinning role of inflammation There is a limited number of studies about the levels of these parameters in endometriosis and to date, no report is available on the levels of adropin and netrin-1 in endometriosis. Likewise, according to the investigator's literature search, no research explaining the association of endometriosis with insulin resistance has yet been published. In present study, in an attempt to describe inflammatory pathways playing a role in endometriosis pathogenesis, Investigators aimed to measure the levels of serum adropin, salusin-α, netrin-1, and nesfatin-1, anti-inflammatory effects of which have been priorly demonstrated, and to find out any association of them with insulin resistance.
