    AbstractExamining the impact of Sanjie Zhentong capsules on hormone levels and serum expression of folate receptor 1 (FOLR1) and Mesothelin (MSLN) in endometriosis patients. A cohort of 150 endometriosis patients admitted between June 2019 and June 2023 was divided into 2 groups based on Sanjie Zhentong intake, comprising 75 cases each. Comparative analyses encompassed uterine artery hemodynamic parameters, ultrasound (B-mode) findings, Visual Analog Scale scores, traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores, Endometriosis Health Profile-30 scores, and serum levels of FOLR1, MSLN, and sex hormones before and after treatment. Post-treatment, both groups exhibited increased peak systolic velocity compared to pretreatment, with the Sanjie Zhentong group showing a significantly higher increase (P < .05). Moreover, resistance index decreased in both groups post-treatment, with the Sanjie Zhentong group displaying a greater reduction (P < .05). Adnexal mass diameters, endometrial thickness, and uterine volume decreased post-treatment in both groups, with the Sanjie Zhentong group experiencing a more pronounced decrease (P < .05). Serum FOLR1, MSLN, and sex hormone levels also decreased post-treatment in both groups, with the Sanjie Zhentong group exhibiting a more significant decrease (P < .05). Additionally, pain scores, traditional Chinese medicine symptoms, and Endometriosis Health Profile-30 scores decreased post-treatment in both groups, with the Sanjie Zhentong group demonstrating a greater reduction (P < .05). Sanjie Zhentong capsules demonstrate efficacy in regulating sex hormones, reducing serum FOLR1 and MSLN expression, alleviating pain, shrinking adnexal masses, decreasing uterine size, and improving uterine artery blood flow in endometriosis patients.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s).
