Length of the Adult Human Colon in Health and Constipation Measured Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Colon length was measured in adult healthy volunteers, people with chronic constipation, and people with IBS with constipation using MRI. Colon length is significantly longer in chronic constipation. The chronically constipated colon is unable to accommodate longitudinally in response to fluid influx from a macrogol challenge.

Endometriosis‐Associated Periodontal Disease: A Large Cohort Perspective Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen‐dependent gynecological disease affecting millions of women worldwide. Besides its well‐established impact on reproductive health, emerging evidence suggests a potential association between endometriosis and periodontal disease.

The Invisible Burden: Examining the Impact of Exposure Misclassification in Epidemiologic Analyses of Uterine Fibroids

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uterine fibroids, a common gynaecologic condition, are often underdiagnosed, potentially biasing results in epidemiologic studies due to measurement error. Objectives To examine how varying sensitivity in detecting uterine fibroids impacts effect estimates, using the association with hypertension onset as an example.

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

GABAB receptor‐mediated modulation of sensory neuron excitability: Roles of CaV2.2, G‐protein‐coupled inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels, and hyperpolarisation‐activated cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels in human and mouse nociception

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic visceral pain is a key symptom of irritable bowel syndrome. Modulation of voltage‐gated calcium and potassium channels by G protein‐coupled receptors plays a key role in dampening nociceptive transmission. Both baclofen and the analgesic peptide α‐conotoxin Vc1.1 activate GABAB receptors (GABABR), resulting in inhibition of CaV2.2 and ...
