You are invited to use the
e-Journal as a vehicle of your thoughts, opinions,
and questions and to stay tuned, as highlighted
by our president Rodolphe Maheux. This is an opportunity
to get your message to reach all WES members!
During the last
year we brought several changes to the e-Journal
with the object of providing you with high quality
information about endometriosis. In each issue,
we now regularly have at least two scientific papers:
a special guest editorial and a review article.
In this issue, Dr Thomas D’Hooghe et al
provide us with an interesting opinion/review
article highlighting endometrial-peritoneal interactions
in endometriosis. There is still limited knowledge
regarding early endometrial-peritoneal crosstalk,
and it is quite possible that not only endometrium
but also peritoneum is an active player. This is
no doubt an interesting avenue of research.
In the second article,
Dr Eduardo Schor provides us with an interesting
literature review of the role of environmental factors,
especially dioxin, a potent endocrine disrupter,
in endometriosis pathogenesis. I thank the authors
for their appreciated contribution and we are looking
forward to receiving your feedback to these articles,
or to any other issue that may stimulate debate
and trigger constructive exchange of views and ideas.
Contact us and get aboard!
Cordially,
Professor Ali Akoum
