ABSTRACT Background The prevalence of high body mass index (BMI) contributes to an increased risk of various diseases. This study aimed to identify global disease burden trends associated with high BMI from 1990 to 2019 and forecasts up to 2040. Methods Using data from the global burden of disease (GBD) 2019 study, we analysed the number and ratio of ...

Uterine selection of human embryos at implantation [PDF]
Human embryos frequently harbor large-scale complex chromosomal errors that impede normal development. Affected embryos may fail to implant although many first breach the endometrial epithelium and embed in the decidualizing stroma before being rejected ...

Prospective evaluation of 92 protein biomarkers for early detection of endometrial cancer
What's New? In this prospective study, the authors evaluated the discrimination capacity of 92 cancer‐related proteins as potential early detection biomarkers for endometrial cancer using blood samples from two large‐scale European population cohorts (EPIC and Janus).

The HS-CMU Dataset for Diagnosing Benign and Malignant Diseases through Hysteroscopy [PDF]
Hysteroscopy enables direct visualization of morphological changes in the endometrium, serving as an important means for screening, diagnosing, and treating intrauterine lesions. Accurate identification of the benign or malignant nature of diseases is crucial.

Blood‐based biomarkers in soft tissue sarcoma: Implications for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy
Abstract Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a rare and heterogeneous cancer, comprising approximately 1% of all adult cancers and 7%–15% of all childhood cancers. In the advanced stages, chemotherapy remains the standard‐of‐care, but efficacy is limited, with a response rate of 15%–30%, and responses are often short‐lived, with median progression‐free ...

Uterine muscle networks: Connectivity analysis of the EHG during pregnancy and Labor [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a new framework to analyze the electrical activity of the uterus recorded by electrohysterography (EHG), from abdominal electrodes (a grid of 4x4 electrodes) during pregnancy and labor. We evaluate the potential use of the synchronization between EHG signals in characterizing electrical activity of the uterus during pregnancy ...
