Regulation of PHOX2B gene expression by the long non‐coding natural antisense RNA PHOX2B‐AS1

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
PHOX2B is a transcription factor essential for autonomic nervous system development. We identify and characterize PHOX2B‐AS1, a human long non‐coding antisense transcript at the PHOX2B locus, along with its murine counterpart. Our findings reveal bidirectional transcription and reciprocal regulation: PHOX2B activates PHOX2B‐AS1, whereas PHOX2B‐AS1 ...

Treatment Patterns in Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Time to Treatment Initiation, Initial Treatment, and Time to Switching

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) causes significant morbidity in children. Treatment patterns across sex, race, and ethnicity in pediatric HS have not been thoroughly evaluated. We aim to characterize treatment patterns in pediatric HS, including (1) time to treatment initiation, (2) first prescribed HS treatment, and (3) time to ...

Impact of combined oral contraceptives and progestin‐only pills on psychological and sexual well‐being of women with endometriosis: A systematic review

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 5, Page 805-818, May 2026.
Hormonal treatments for endometriosis (combined oral contraceptives/progestin‐only pills) do not show increased psychological or sexual risks compared with placebo. When pain is effectively controlled, these therapies appear well tolerated and may improve overall well‐being.

Evaluation of coagulation activation after Rhinovirus infection in patients with asthma and healthy control subjects: an observational study [PDF]

, 2014
Background Asthma exacerbations are frequently triggered by rhinovirus infections. Both asthma and respiratory tract infection can activate haemostasis. Therefore we hypothesized that experimental rhinovirus-16 infection and asthmatic airway inflammation

A concept for a new approach to combined oral contraception from adolescence to perimenopause: Continuous use of the oral GnRH antagonist Relugolix and the fetal estrogen Estetrol

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 4, Page 568-574, April 2026.
It is expected that the relugolix estetrol combination RE4W will enable women to control their fertility and prevent menstrual cycle related problems, while offering a smooth transition through perimenopause into the postmenopause and decrease the risk of breast cancer.

Associations between androgen levels and endurance training‐induced changes in body composition and physical performance in premenopausal females

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, April 2026.
Abstract We investigated whether a moderate‐intensity continuous training (MICT) for two menstrual/contraceptive cycles (~8 weeks) alters endogenous androgen concentrations in premenopausal females, and whether baseline androgen concentrations or their changes from baseline to post‐intervention are associated with adaptations in body composition and ...
