    Effect of a Small Physiological Electric Field on Angiogenic Activity in First-Trimester Extravillous Trophoblast Cells

    Electrical stimulation induces significant angiogenesis in vivo. We have shown that electrical stimulation of trophoblast cells has important functions in aspects of angiogenesis. In this study, we investigate...

    Further Evidence for Hypercoagulability in Women With Ovarian Endometriomas

    Our previous studies have shown that platelets play a crucial role in the development of endometriosis, and women with endometriosis appear to be in a state of hypercoagulability. However, a recent study could...

    Histological and Immunohistochemical Characterization of the Similarity and Difference Between Ovarian Endometriomas and Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis

    Ovarian endometrioma (OMA) and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) have long been recognized to have different histology and, as such, postulated to be 2 separate disease entities. Few studies, however, have...
