1 Relationship between apoptosis and the number of macrophages in eutopic endometrium from women with and without endometriosis  Donald P Braun, Ph.D., Jianchi Ding, Ph.D., J Shen, M.D., N Rana, M.D., B.B Fernandez, M.D., W.Paul Dmowski, M.D., Ph.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 78, Issue 4, Pages (October 2002) DOI: /S (02)

2 FIGURE 1 Apoptotic cells (A) and macrophage numbers (B) in uterine endometrium in women with and without endometriosis. Simple means (mean ± SE) were calculated with a t-test. Number of samples for apoptosis: 24 and 51 for controls and endometriosis, respectively. Number of samples for macrophages: 19 and 37 for controls and endometriosis, respectively. Braun.

3 FIGURE 2 Plot of apoptotic indices vs. macrophage indices in women with (n = 37) and without (n = 19) endometriosis, and trend (regression) lines for control, endometriosis, and all subjects (pooled).

4 FIGURE 3 Apoptotic index (A), LSM ± SE/10 mm2, and macrophage number (B), LSM ± SE/10 mm2, in eutopic endometrium according to the endometrial phase. EP = early-proliferative; MP = mid-proliferative; LP = late-proliferative; ES = early-secretory; MS = mid-secretory; LS/M = late-secretory/menses. P values at the top of the bars are comparisons between controls and women with endometriosis at the same endometrial phase. NS = not significant, P>.05. Braun.
