Exploring vaginal microbiota–tissue resident stem cell crosstalk: VCAM1/Akt signaling ‐mediated enhancement of regenerative capacity

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Vaginal microbiota‐derived secretory factors enhance the regenerative capacity of human endometrial stem cells by upregulating VCAM1 and activating PI3K/Akt signaling. This microbiota–stem cell crosstalk promotes self‐renewal, migration, multilineage differentiation, and metabolic reprogramming in vitro and in vivo, establishing a novel microbiota ...

Ultrasound Characteristics of Twisted Pedunculated Subserosal Uterine Leiomyomas: A Case Report and a Systematic Review of the Literature

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Ultrasound may aid in the preoperative diagnosis of torsed pedunculated subserosal uterine leiomyomas (TPSUL), a rare but urgent condition. This study identifies consistent sonographic features across 42 cases, supporting ultrasound as a valuable diagnostic tool and highlighting the need for standardization in TPSUL imaging.

Oxidative Stress and Antioxidants in Uterine Fibroids: Pathophysiology and Clinical Implications

Antioxidants, 2023
In the last few decades, our understanding of the complex pathobiology of uterine fibroid development has grown. While previously believed to be a purely neoplastic entity, we now understand that uterine fibroids possess different and equally important ...

Pelvic Ultrasound for Predicting Endometrial Neoplasia in Premenopausal Abnormal Uterine Bleeding

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives Although ultrasound is the first line imaging modality for abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB), there is a lack of consensus on its predictiveness for premenopausal endometrial pathology. This study aims to determine the predictiveness of pelvic ultrasound for endometrial neoplasia and cancer precursor lesions in premenopausal patients ...

“Swallowed by a Black Hole”: The Neglected Impact of Endometriosis in the Workplace

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how endometriosis, as a chronic and cyclical condition, is experienced and managed in contemporary workplaces, and what this reveals about the limits of existing human resource management (HRM) frameworks. Drawing on Feminist Disability Theory (FDT), we conceptualise endometriosis as a form of structurally produced ...
