The objective of the study was to investigate the association between peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) polymorphism and susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). An electronic searching strategy was employed to collect relevant studies on the association between PADI4 polymorphism and susceptibility to RA. The odds ratio (OR) with the 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) was used to evaluate the RA risk presented by PADI4 polymorphism.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate the link between induced abortion and the occurrence of reproductive tract infections (RTIs) among women aged 15-49 in Anhui province.
- A total of 53,652 women were surveyed, revealing that 32% had previously experienced an induced abortion and 59% had suffered from RTIs, with higher rates in those who underwent multiple abortions.
- Results indicated that married women in rural areas who had more induced abortions were more likely to have RTIs, particularly cervical infections and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
