Genetically predicted triglyceride levels and endometriosis risk: Mendelian randomization with exploratory multi-omics analyses.

This study explored the genetic evidence linking triglyceride-related pathways and lipid-lowering drug targets with endometriosis risk and investigated the genetic association between TG levels and EM. Using genome-wide association study …

Autoimmune hypothyroidism and endometriosis: evidence from bidirectional Mendelian randomization and an independent clinical cohort analysis.

Observational studies have reported comorbidity between autoimmune thyroid disease and endometriosis, but whether this reflects a direct causal relationship or shared susceptibility remains unclear. We evaluated the bidirectional relationship between …

Systems-level genomic analyses reveal shared mechanisms underlying endometriosis and sleep disorders.

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) …

Mendelian randomization of risk factors for premenstrual disorders.

The causal role of established risk factors for premenstrual disorders (PMDs) remains unclear. We used Mendelian randomization (MR) to assess causality for eight known-risk factors identified through a literature review. …

Genetic evidence for causality between thyroid function and endometriosis: A bidirectional 2-sample Mendelian randomization study.

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 …

Bidirectional Associations Between Circulating Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Female Reproductive Endocrine-Related Diseases: A Mendelian Randomization Study.

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 …

Suggestive associations between genetically predicted gut microbiota and endometriosis: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study.

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 …

Exploring the potential of gut microbiota metabolites in the treatment of endometriosis through network pharmacology and Mendelian randomization.

Studies have shown that dysregulation of the gut microbiota (GM) plays a crucial role in the development of endometriosis (EMs). Study aimed to investigate the potential of protective GM metabolites …

The effects of plasma protein levels on the risk of endometriosis: A Mendelian randomization study.

Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecologic disorder that significantly impacts women's health. However, its underlying pathogenesis remains unknown. This study aimed to ascertain causal associations between plasma protein levels and endometriosis …

Sedentary behavior, physical activity, psychological well-being, and gynecologic and obstetric disorders: A multivariable Mendelian randomization and mediation analysis.

The independent causal effects of interrelated lifestyle behaviors and psychological states on women's gynecologic and obstetric health remain incompletely understood. We conducted a comprehensive Mendelian randomization (MR) study to disentangle …
