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) …
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a prevalent, disabling syndrome encompassing overlapping disorders such as endometriosis/adenomyosis, bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis, irritable bowel syndrome, vulvodynia, and myofascial pain syndrome. Despite distinct clinical …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder characterized by the ectopic implantation of endometrial-like tissue. Although retrograde menstruation is highly prevalent, only a subset of women develops the disease. This …
Endometriosis is one of the most common causes of chronic pelvic or lower-abdominal pain, yet mechanisms, predictors, and patient-centered treatment pathways remain insufficiently defined. This article summarizes the situation in …
Endometriosis is a chronic, heterogenous disorder in which cyclical hemorrhage and repetitive repair generate ectopic implants that persist, recur, and drive pain and infertility; conventional frameworks emphasizing hormonal aberration and …
Accumulating observational evidence suggests an association between thyroid function and endometriosis, though the causal relationship remains unclear. To investigate potential bidirectional causal relationships, including for endometriosis subtypes, we conducted a …
Infertility represents a significant global health burden, necessitating advanced therapeutic interventions. While Assisted Reproductive Technologies have revolutionized fertility treatment, they remain constrained by limited efficacy, off-target toxicity, and procedural complexity. …
Ovarian endometrioma (OMA), an endometriosis subtype, involves hemorrhagic cysts formed by ectopic endometrial-like tissue, causing pelvic pain, inflammation, and infertility by disrupting ovarian function. Despite its impact, the single-cell dynamics …
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 "gut microbiota-mitochondria axis" has become the core hub connecting the metabolism, immunity, and endocrine regulation of gynecological diseases. In this review, the hierarchical regulation mechanism of this axis is …
