Endometriosis (EMS) is characterised by a disrupted peritoneal immune microenvironment where M2 macrophage polarization and impaired phagocytosis promote lesion survival. Single-cell RNA-seq (ScRNAseq) of the peritoneal macrophages from EMS patient …
Endometriosis (EM) is an intractable gynecological condition with uncertain etiology. Gut microbiota have been increasingly implicated in EM, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we identify a gut microbe-metabolite-uterus …
To establish a standardized and reproducible rat model of endometriosis by refining the classic Vivian technique, with the aim of minimizing methodological variability and replicating key features of human disease.
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder marked by ectopic lesions, chronic pelvic inflammation, and frequent recurrence. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive modality with anti-inflammatory and regenerative potential, …
Brazil recently implemented a national menstrual health program within its public health system (Sistema Único de Saúde [SUS]), representing a significant policy shift toward recognizing menstrual dignity as a public …
Daily activities, work, and health are closely intertwined. We closely followed 45 participants aged 50-66 years working across different sectors in a year-long study, who completed a range of baseline, …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic systemic inflammatory disease that affects 10 % of people assigned female at birth. Despite its prevalence, mean diagnostic delay is 4-11 years. Although much research …
The uterus is an essential organ for fetal development in most mammals. Uterine glands, highly conserved structures in the mammalian uterus, play critical roles in the establishment and maintenance of …
We examined clinical, genetic, and molecular links between sleep disorders and endometriosis. Women aged 20-54 years in NHANES 2005-2006 were analyzed with survey-weighted logistic regression. Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) …
The female reproductive system is a hormonally driven, immune-active, and structurally dynamic system in which estrogen signaling, inflammation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling interact to support essential reproductive processes. Cyclical …
