Self-reported fertility problems and their socio-demographic and health correlates: a cross-sectional online survey of 8000 Polish adults.

While biological and lifestyle determinants of reproductive health are well documented globally, comprehensive data integrating socio-demographic, lifestyle, and health correlates within a contemporary Polish context remain limited. This study aimed …

β-Glucuronidase at the gut-liver interface: Structural selectivity, enterohepatic reactivation, and the pharmacomicrobiomic case for precision inhibition.

β-Glucuronidase (β-G, EC 3.2.1.31) reverses phase II glucuronidation, and microbial β-G at the gut-liver interface reactivates biliary and circulating conjugates, closing enterohepatic loops for drugs, estrogens, bile acids, and bilirubin. …

Deciphering the Role of ZEB1 as a Central Regulator of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Hormonal Resistance in Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and sex steroid hormone-dependent gynaecologic disease, characterised by endometrial cell proliferation outside the uterine cavity, often accompanied by fibrosis, progesterone resistance, and high recurrence despite …

Research Progress of Histone Deacetylase and Its Inhibitors in Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a complex chronic inflammatory disease with an unclear etiology and limited treatment options, severely affecting the reproductive health and quality of life of many women. Histone deacetylases (HDACs), …

The hidden impacts of endocrine-disrupting chemicals on endometrial and pregnancy health.

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that interfere with hormone signalling and are increasingly linked to adverse reproductive outcomes. This viewpoint highlights emerging evidence that EDC exposure disrupts both …

Ectopic Endometrium-Targeted M1 Macrophage-Derived Nanovesicles for Treatment of Endometriosis.

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder in women of reproductive age, often presenting with pelvic pain and infertility. Its progression is closely linked to estrogen levels. While hormonal therapies …

Women's Experiences Living With Endometriosis: An Interpretative Phenomenological Study.

The aim was to explore the lived experiences of women diagnosed with endometriosis and receiving care in Spain to understand its impact across multiple areas of their lives. This qualitative …

Correction: Endometriosis subtypes and risk of type 2 diabetes: the Advancing Research on Cardiovascular Health and Endometriosis Study (ARCHES) retrospective cohort study.

Immune regulatory networks and gut microbiota-associated targets in endometriosis: an integrative multi-omics and network analysis.

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, and altered hormone metabolism. Although gut microbiota-derived metabolites have been implicated in shaping immune microenvironments and lesion development, the …

Evaluating embryo euploidy among patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease undergoing in vitro fertilization.

The impact of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on embryo chromosomal competence during in vitro fertilization (IVF) remains poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate embryo euploidy rates among patients with …
