Orofacial pain (OFP) is a multidimensional clinical problem that includes conditions such as temporomandibular disorders (TMD). It is often associated with chronic overlapping pain conditions (COPCs), including gastrointestinal, gynecological and …
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a prevalent, disabling syndrome encompassing overlapping disorders such as endometriosis/adenomyosis, bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis, irritable bowel syndrome, vulvodynia, and myofascial pain syndrome. Despite distinct clinical …
Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare condition characterized by histologically benign smooth muscle tumours arising at extrauterine sites, most commonly the lungs, in women with a history of uterine …
Growing teratoma syndrome (GTS) is a rare condition classically associated with platinum-based chemotherapy for malignant ovarian germ cell tumors. However, post-treatment findings following ovarian immature teratoma may represent a broader …
The widespread use of plastic has led to exposure to chemicals like bisphenols (BPs), particularly bisphenol A (BPA), which are crucial in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. …
A 37-year-old non-Caucasian woman presented with a 2-year history of pruritic, concentric erythematous plaques refractory to multiple topical and systemic therapies. The clinical findings were highly suggestive of erythema gyratum …
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 …
Endometriosis and interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) frequently coexist in women with chronic pelvic pain, yet overlapping symptoms and non-standardized diagnostic pathways often delay recognition of dual pathology. We propose …
Endometriosis and interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) frequently coexist; however, diagnostic delays and non-standardized criteria limit accurate identification of these conditions.
Infertility represents a significant global health burden, necessitating advanced therapeutic interventions. While Assisted Reproductive Technologies have revolutionized fertility treatment, they remain constrained by limited efficacy, off-target toxicity, and procedural complexity. …
