Endometriosis in the era of precision medicine and impact on sexual and reproductive health across the lifespan and in diverse populations

The FASEB Journal, Volume 37, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Precision medicine is leading the way to resolving complex clinical challenges and disparities in diagnosing and treating many disorders and recently has been extended to endometriosis, a common, inflammatory disease with heterogenous symptoms and lesion subtypes causing chronic pain and infertility.

Norethindrone is superior to combined oral contraceptive pills in short-term delay of menses and onset of breakthrough bleeding: a randomized trial

BMC Women's Health, 2019
Background To determine whether oral norethindrone acetate is superior to combined oral contraceptives (OCP) in delaying menstruation and preventing breakthrough bleeding when started late in the cycle.

Treatment of acne in the aesthetic patient: A round table update

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 22, Issue 9, Page 2391-2398, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Background The popularity of social media appears to be increasing the acceptance of cosmetic treatments, prompting more consumers to seek cosmetic treatments. As the estimated prevalence of acne vulgaris among adult women may be as high as 54%, acne is commonly observed among patients presenting for cosmetic treatments.

Pure and Random-Field Quantum Criticality in the Dipolar Ising Model: Theory of $Mn_{12}$ acetates [PDF]

Phys. Rev. B 81, 024423 (2010), 2009
A theoretical model for the $Mn_{12}$ acetates is derived including a 'random field' effect arising from isomer effects in some families of host acetate materials. Estimates for the important energy scales are given. Phase boundaries are determined using a mean field approximation.

An Ice Structuring Mechanism for Zirconium Acetate [PDF]

Langmuir, 2012, 28 (42), pp 14892-14898, 2018
The control of ice nucleation and growth is critical in many natural and engineering situations. Yet, very few compounds are able to interact directly with the surface of ice crystals. Ice-structuring proteins, found in certain fishes, plants and insects, bind to the surface of ice, thereby controlling their growth.

Mn12-acetate film pattern generated by photolithography methods [PDF]

, 2004
We demonstrate a straightforward way to lithographically fabricate Mn12-acetate (Mn12O12(CH3COO)16(H2O)4 2CH3COOH 4H2O) thin film patterns on Si/SiO2 surfaces, a significant step in light of the chemical volatility of this organic complex. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of the film patterns allow the determination of the pattern dimensions. X-ray

Water/ice phase transition: the role of Zirconium Acetate, a compound with ice-shaping properties [PDF]

, 2016
Few compounds feature ice-shaping properties. The only compound reported to have ice-shaping properties similar to that of ice-shaping proteins, encountered in many organisms living at low temperature, is Zirconium Acetate. When a Zirconium Acetate solution is frozen, oriented and perfectly hexagonal ice crystals can be formed and their growth follows ...
