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 …

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. …

The genetics of primary dysmenorrhea: a systematic review.

Dysmenorrhea is the most common gynaecological condition in women of reproductive age. Approximately 90% of cases are primary dysmenorrhea (PDM) which is not associated with underlying pathology. Dysmenorrhea can have …

An Integrative Genome-Wide Analysis Reveals Shared and Subtype-Specific Genetic Links Between Endometriosis and Menstrual-Cycle-Related Traits.

This study aimed to systematically assess the genetic comorbidity of endometriosis (EM) and its subtypes with menstrual-cycle-related traits, and to identify shared genetic mechanisms and key regulatory pathways underlying their …

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 …

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 …

Does Depression Increase the Risk of Endometriosis? A Combined Population‑Based and Laboratory Study.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder that causes substantial pain and infertility. Observational studies have reported higher rates of multiple psychiatric disorders among individuals with endometriosis; however, confounding and …

Association between circulating metabolites and endometriosis: a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization study.

Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic gynecological condition of unclear etiology, with evidence suggesting a link between metabolite levels and EM risk. A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach was used to …

Multi-omics Mendelian randomization identifies mitochondrial genes associated with immune microenvironment signatures in endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a complex gynaecological disorder that affects 10%-15% of reproductive-age women and is characterized by chronic inflammation, pelvic pain, and infertility. Although mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in endometriosis pathogenesis, …

Unraveling the genetic links between stature and disease in East Asians: A multi-biobank genetic correlation and risk prediction study.

Both genetic and environmental factors affect human stature, including overall height and familial short stature (FSS), and it is associated with various health outcomes. However, the study of genetic connections …
