Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality in women, yet sex-specific risk factors are usually not included in conventional predictive models. Specifically, heart failure (HF) in women may …
Early-life exposures may influence long-term reproductive health, but comprehensive population-based evidence remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the associations between six early-life factors (long-term/recurrent antibiotic use [LRAU], birth weight, …
Female-specific pain conditions such as dysmenorrhoea, endometriosis, and pain associated with pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause are highly prevalent and frequently impair quality of life. Superficial heat therapy (SHT) has long …
