Objectives: This systematic review aimed to assess the association between psychosocial factors in the workplace and menstrual abnormalities or fertility, focusing on literature implementing a prospective cohort design.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, PsycARTICLES, and Japan Medical Abstracts Society electronic databases for studies published from inception to February 26, 2020, and updated the search in PubMed on May 29, 2024. Inclusion criteria were (P) adult female workers (over 18 years old), (E) presence of adverse psychosocial factors at work, (C) absence of adverse psychosocial factors at work, and (O) any menstrual cycle disorders, menstrual-related symptoms, or fertility issues.
Background: Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) typically employs traditional edge detection algorithms that often require manual correction. This has important implications for the accuracy of downstream 3D coronary reconstructions and computed haemodynamic indices (e.g.

Study Design: Prospective, single blind, three-group, and three-period crossover clinical study.
Methods: The study included patients with concentric peripheral visual field loss, a best-corrected visual acuity (decimal visual acuity) of 0.
Stomata play a pivotal role in balancing CO uptake for photosynthesis and water loss via transpiration. Thus, appropriate regulation of stomatal movement and its formation are crucial for plant growth and survival. Red and blue light induce phosphorylation of the C-terminal residue of the plasma membrane (PM) H-ATPase, threonine, in guard cells, generating the driving force for stomatal opening.
