Mapping Human Uterine Disorders Through Single-Cell Transcriptomics.

Disruptions in uterine tissue function contribute to disorders such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, endometrial cancer, and fibroids, which all significantly impact health and fertility. Advances in transcriptomics, particularly single-cell RNA sequencing, …

Evaluating the association between lipidome and female reproductive diseases through comprehensive Mendelian randomization analyses.

This study aimed to assess the causal relationship between lipidome and female reproductive diseases (FRDs) using an advanced series of Mendelian randomization (MR) methods. This study utilized genome-wide association study …

Causal effects of genetically determined circulating metabolites on endometriosis: A Mendelian randomization study.

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disease accompanied by metabolic disturbances. However, the causality between metabolites and the risk of EMs remains unclear. We conducted a 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) …

Surface Molecular Markers for the Isolation of Viable Fibroblast Subpopulations in the Female Reproductive Tract: A Comprehensive Review.

Advancements in single-cell analyzis technologies, particularly single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting (FACS), have enabled the analyzis of cellular diversity by providing resolutions that were not available previously. …

Müllerian anomalies and endometriosis: associations and phenotypic variations.

Müllerian anomalies are congenital conditions characterized by the incomplete development of the female reproductive tract. Women affected by Müllerian anomalies often display additional malformations of the renal, skeletal, and cardiovascular …

Editorial: Participant characteristics and biological markers for endometriosis diagnosis or prediction of treatment response.

Exploring Causal Associations Between Serum Inflammatory Markers and Female Reproductive Disorders: A Mendelian Randomisation Study.

Although inflammation may disrupt immunoendocrine crosstalk essential for female reproductive function, causal links to disorders like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis remain unestablished. This study aimed to utilise Mendelian …

Adenomyosis Localized in Both the Anterior and Posterior Myometrium Is Associated with Deep Rectal Endometriosis: A Retrospective Study.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two closely related, estrogen-dependent, benign gynecological diseases. The available evidence on their common pathogenesis and association is limited and often does not address the heterogeneity of …

The causal role of gastroesophageal reflux disease in endometriosis: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study.

Observational studies have reported an association between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and endometriosis. We conducted a two-sample and bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis to determine whether those associations are causal. Two-sample …

Intra-operative and post-operative complications of endometriosis excision using the SOSURE approach - A single- surgeon retrospective series of 1116 procedures over 8 years.

Endometriosis surgery outcomes have been widely studied, yet heterogeneity in terminology and techniques persist.
