Evaluation of New Biomarkers in Stage 3 and 4 Endometriosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The diagnostic value of Annexin V, sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, vascular endothelial growth factor and Proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-a and interleukin-6) in ovarian endometriosis and deep infiltrating endometriosis, their levels in organ-specific involvement, their relationship with symptoms, and the changes of these markers in the postoperative period will be evaluated.

Detailed Description
Serum Annexin V, sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, vascular endothelial growth factor and proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-a and interleukin-6) values were studied by taking blood samples from all patients before and three months after the operation.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Study Group Stage 3 and 4 endometriosis patients |
Procedure: endometriosis surgery
Laparoscopy was performed in the follicular phase of the woman's menstrual cycle and all recognizable endometriotic lesions were treated by bipolar coagulation, resection of endometriotic nodules and ovarian cystectomy.
|
Control Group Patients without endometriosis, who required surgery for tubal ligation, benign ovarian cysts or uterine fibroids were included. |
Procedure: other benign condition surgeries
ovarian cystectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, myomectomy etc.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Diagnostic value of serum Annexin V in endometriosis [Up to 4 months]
To determine whether serum Annexin V levels (ng/mL) can be used as diagnostic markers of endometriosis disease.
- Diagnostic value of serum sVCAM-1 in endometriosis [Up to 4 months]
To determine whether serum sVCAM-1(ng/mL) levels can be used as diagnostic markers of endometriosis disease.
- Diagnostic value of serum sICAM-1 in endometriosis [Up to 4 months]
To determine whether serum sICAM-1(ng/mL) levels can be used as diagnostic markers of endometriosis disease.
- Diagnostic value of serum Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in endometriosis [Up to 4 months]
To determine whether serum Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (pg/mL) levels can be used as diagnostic markers of endometriosis disease.
- Diagnostic value of serum TNF-alpha in endometriosis [Up to 4 months]
To determine whether serum TNF-alpha (pg/mL) levels can be used as diagnostic markers of endometriosis disease.
- Diagnostic value of serum Interleukin-6 in endometriosis [Up to 4 months]
To determine whether serum Interleukin-6 (pg/mL) levels can be used as diagnostic markers of endometriosis disease.
