Background/Objectives: Endometriosis (END) is a painful gynecological condition. Clinical examination, imaging, and laparoscopy can provide definitive diagnosis of END. Nonetheless, non-invasive biomarkers could help enhance streamline the diagnostic process. Micro-RNAs (miRNAs), family small non-coding RNAs, serve as useful for The aim this study was to perform serum miRNA profiling in retrospective cohort women identify miRNAs that are differentially expressed END compared control...
