Endometriosis has been associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are hypothesized to modulate female reproductive endocrine disorders, yet their causal relationships remain elusive. We employed Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate bidirectional causality between circulating PUFAs …
This single-centre retrospective study (100 women with endometrial polyps, mean age 41.8 ± 8.2 years) investigated the association between endometrial polyps and endometriosis. Endometriosis was confirmed in 13 % of …
A growing body of literature has revealed that patients with endometriosis are at an increased risk for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Endometriosis is a heterogeneous disease …
To evaluate central arterial stiffness, endothelial function, and circulating vascular biomarkers in women with ovarian endometriosis and to explore their associations compared with age-matched controls.
Adolescent endometriosis (EMs) imposes substantial physical and psychological burdens on young female patients, and adaptive coping strategies are vital for their health management. This study aimed to explore the latent …
Introduction. Endometriosis affects 10-20% of reproductive-age women. Emerging evidence links the gut microbiota to endometriosis pathogenesis, but observational studies are limited by confounding, reverse causation and uncertainty about whether reported …
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, …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that affects 5-15% of women of reproductive age. It is characterized by severe symptoms, including dysmenorrhea and non-cyclic pelvic pain, which can substantially impair …
To investigate the association between delivery/abortion methods, allergy history, and endometriosis (EM) risk.
