Oocyte aging in focus: Environmental and endogenous stressors driving reproductive potential decline.

Oocyte quality, a critical determinant of female reproductive potential, experiences a progressive decline with age, largely driven by the cumulative effects of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. This review thoroughly …

A preliminary single-cell map of endometriosis suggests roles for fibroblast metabolism and macrophage polarization in disease progression.

Probiotic supplementation improves quality of life and modulates oestradiol in women with endometriosis: a randomised double-blind pilot trial.

Endometriosis is a chronic, oestrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder affecting up to 10% of reproductive-age women, associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Emerging evidence implicates the vaginal microbiome …

Physical Activity, Metabolic Dysfunction, and the Kynurenine Pathway in Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Literature Review.

Endometriosis and PCOS are both leading causes of female infertility, each affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide. Both conditions markedly impair quality of life by affecting physical health, emotional …

Dose-Response And Threshold Effects of a C-reactive Protein-Triglyceride-Glucose Composite Index and Endometriosis Risk: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological disorder associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, yet diagnosis is often delayed because symptoms are non-specific and definitive confirmation typically relies on invasive procedures. Composite indices …

Endometriosis at the Single-Cell Level: Molecular Insights and Implications for Assisted Reproduction Success.

Endometriosis is a chronic hormone-responsive disorder linked to infertility, usually characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrium in the pelvis that disrupts local homeostasis. Advances in single-cell "omic" methods have …

DRIVE-KG: Enhancing variant-phenotype association discovery in understudied complex diseases using heterogeneous knowledge graphs.

Multi-omics data are instrumental in obtaining a comprehensive picture of complex biological systems. This is particularly useful for women's health conditions such as endometriosis, which has been historically understudied despite …

The role of gut microbiota in modulating estrogen in the inflammatory milieu of endometriosis: A molecular and pathophysiological perspective.

Endometriosis is a prevalent estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory condition that affects millions of women of reproductive age worldwide. It is characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, …

Dietary Fiber in Endometriosis: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Potential Clinical Benefits-Up-to-Date Review.

Background: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder. It is associated with hormonal dysregulation, pelvic pain, and a reduced quality of life. Dietary factors may influence disease development and symptom …

Association between the Modified Cardiometabolic Index and Endometriosis in an American Cohort: Insights from a Cross-sectional Analysis.

The modified cardiometabolic index (MCMI), an integrated measure of visceral fat and lipid metabolism, has been widely applied in metabolic disease research. However, its relationship with endometriosis has not been …
