The aim of our study is to investigate the percentage of ovarian cancer (OC) patients with concomitant endometriosis and its distribution across histological subtypes, and to assess whether the presence …
Bisphenols and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals with widespread human exposure and growing concern regarding their reproductive toxicity. This review integrates current experimental and epidemiologic …
To develop a Workplace Health Initiatives Checklist for Women (WHIC‑W), we assessed content validity (expert) and provided initial evidence for construct validity by examining hypothesized cross-sectional associations with burnout, productivity, …
