Shared genetic architecture and cellular convergence between female reproductive disorders and pulmonary function: a genome-wide cross-trait analysis.

Female reproductive disorders (FRDs), including polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis, uterine leiomyomata, and infertility, have been epidemiologically associated with impaired pulmonary function. However, it remains unclear whether this cross-organ link reflects …

Multi-trait GWAS identifies pleiotropic loci shared between early pregnancy bleeding and psychiatric traits.

Early pregnancy bleeding is a common pregnancy complication, yet its genetic basis and potential links with psychiatric traits remain poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize the shared genetic architecture …

Shared Genetic Architecture and Pleiotropic Loci Linking Endometriosis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: An Integrative GWAS, Colocalization, and Mendelian Randomization Study.

Endometriosis (EMS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are both chronic inflammatory disorders with overlapping clinical features, suggesting a potentially shared etiology. Although epidemiological studies have reported an association between the …

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 …

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 …

A review on shared genetic architecture of endometriosis and migraine: from pleiotropy to convergent inflammatory pathways.

The comorbidity between endometriosis and migraine has long been recognized clinically, yet a unifying pathophysiological explanation has remained elusive. Traditional models, centered on hormonal fluctuations or secondary inflammation are lacking …

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 …

Causal effects of endometriosis on serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D: Evidence from Mendelian randomization study.

The potential bidirectional causal relationship between endometriosis and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D has been previously investigated. Nevertheless, the results could be impacted by confounding factors and reverse causality because of the …

The effect of endometriosis on fertility: Results of the National Health and Nutrition Examination and Mendelian randomization analysis, 1999 to 2006.

This study aims to investigate the effect of endometriosis (EMs) on fertility and to assess the causal relationship between EMs and fertility using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). We conducted an …

From lipid profiles to disease onset: Triglycerides as predictive biomarkers in endometriosis.

Dyslipidaemia is related to endometriosis, but it is not known which lipid component is most relevant, and whether the observed correlation reflects the causal relationship. The relationship between triglycerides (TG) …
