The correlation between painful symptoms (dysmenorrhea, dysparonia, dysuria, chronic pelvic pain) symptoms and endoplasmic reticulum stress was investigated in 86 patients diagnosed with endometriosis. For this, xbp-1 (x box binding protein-1) level was measured in patients. XBP-1 is an endoplasmic reticulum stress indicator and is known to be involved in pain pathogenesis.
Women between the ages of 18-50 who were diagnosed with endometriosis by surgery and ultrasound, without known rheumatological or metabolic diseases were included in the study. Most of the patients are composed of newly diagnosed patients.
