Systemic Hormonal Contraceptive Use Is Associated With Greater Odds of Rotator Cuff Tears, Shoulder Instability, Dislocation, and Other Shoulder Pathologies: A Propensity Matched Epidemiological Study

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate whether systemic estrogen‐only, progestin‐only, or combined hormonal contraceptives (HCs) are associated with increased risk of shoulder pathologies in reproductive‐age females. Methods A retrospective cohort study of female patients presenting to clinic from 2013 to 2020 and aged 13‐50 with 5 years of follow‐up was conducted using ...

Sheep Horn Development Revealed by Multi‐Tissue and Cross‐Species Transcriptomic Analysis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multi‐tissue and cross‐species transcriptomics with allele‐specific expression show sheep horns are a composite organ integrating epidermal and osteogenic programs. Conserved horn gene modules and cis‐regulatory variation fine‐tune expression networks underlying horn development and size (small scurs vs. large spiral horns).

Therapeutic role of nifedipine in threatened preterm labor: Current evidence and future perspectives

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preterm birth occurs in approximately 10% of all pregnancies, and is not only the leading cause of neonatal mortality but also a major contributor to short‐ and long‐term morbidities due to immaturity. Preterm birth has also been linked to an increased risk of maternal cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, making it a critical concern ...

Membranous dysmenorrhea and decidual casts: A scoping review

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Membranous dysmenorrhea, characterized by the expulsion of intact endometrial tissue rather than gradual dissolution during menstruation, occasionally presents as a decidual cast—a complete triangular mold of the uterine cavity. This poorly understood condition is likely underdiagnosed.
