We examined clinical, genetic, and molecular links between sleep disorders and endometriosis. Women aged 20-54 years in NHANES 2005-2006 were analyzed with survey-weighted logistic regression. Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) …
This Correspondence is a formal response to the Comment by Dr. Machado regarding our publication "Creatine Promotes Endometriosis by Inducing Ferroptosis Resistance via Suppression of PrP." We address several conceptual …
Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains the leading cause of acquired valvular heart disease in low- and middle-income countries, affecting an estimated 40 million individuals and disproportionately affecting children and young …
Endometriosis is an inflammatory chronic gynecological condition that affects 10-15% of reproductive-age women which causes pelvic pain and infertility. The disease is characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside …
The research by Chen et al. (2024) presents an innovative hypothesis linking creatine metabolism to ferroptosis resistance in endometriotic stromal cells via PrP suppression. While conceptually valuable, methodological aspects warrant …
The human microbiome, a dynamic endocrine organ, exerts profound systemic influence through the production of bioactive metabolites. While the microbiome-gut-brain axis is well-established, the direct conduit between the gut microbiota …
Postoperative recurrence remains a major obstacle to durable remission in patients with solid tumors, even after complete macroscopic resection. Growing evidence suggests that surgery creates a transient yet highly permissive …
Aspartame, a widely used artificial sweetener, has been implicated in multiple toxicities. However, its potential reproductive toxicity mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the underlying relationship between aspartame …
Microvascular thromboinflammation is a pervasive yet under-recognized driver of multisystem morbidity that links focal endothelial injury to distal organ dysfunction through interacting cellular and plasmatic networks. Contemporary paradigms remain fragmented: …
Endometriosis is increasingly recognized as a chronic systemic disorder extending beyond the classical estrogen-dependent paradigm, integrating metabolic, immune, fibrotic, and nociceptive pathways that sustain lesion persistence and refractory pelvic pain. …
