Heterotaxy syndrome, dextrocardia, ureteropelvic obstruction, endometriosis, and pulmonary hypertension in an adult with congenital heart defects: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Damascus University, Damascus, Syria.
Background: Heterotaxia is characterized by an abnormal positioning of the thoracic and/or abdominal organs, resulting in various physiological and hemodynamic implications. Congenital heart disease involves structural irregularities in the heart or major vessels within the chest, leading to functional challenges.
Case Presentation: We present a 26-year-old Arab female patient with a complex medical history involving heterotaxy, dextrocardia, congenital heart disease, and ureteropelvic junction obstruction diagnosed in her first year of life, followed by the identification of endometriosis in her early twenties.
A Positive Relationship Between Caffeine Intake and Endometriosis: A Cross-Sectional Study of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2006.
J Hum Nutr Diet
February 2025
Reproductive Medical Center, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, Nanning, China.
Background: Caffeine has been suggested to have a relationship with endometriosis as a widely consumed psychoactive substance, although findings are inconsistent.
Objective: This study explored the potential associations and threshold effects between caffeine intake and endometriosis using cross-sectional data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2006.
Methods: The study included 248 women with endometriosis and 2944 without, aged 20-50 years.
Vitamin D and Endometriosis: Is There a Mechanistic Link?
Cell Biochem Funct
January 2025
Department of Metabolism and Systems Science, School of Medical Sciences, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK.
Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynaecological disorder, but its cause is still unclear, and both genetic and environmental factors may contribute disease aetiology. Prominent amongst the latter is vitamin D which can be obtained either by the action of sunlight on skin or from dietary sources. Serum levels of the main circulating form of vitamin D, 25-hydroxvitamin D (25(OH)D), have been reported to be inversely correlated with endometriosis, suggesting that vitamin D-deficiency may be a risk factor for the disease.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Current evidence on the role of macro- and micronutrients in the aetiopathogenesis of endometriosis is controversial.
Objectives: In this systematic review, we aimed to investigate the effect of macronutrients, dairy products, fruits, and vegetables on the occurrence and progression of endometriosis.
Materials And Methods: A systematic literature review of eligible articles retrieved from medical databases, including PubMed, Cochrane, and Academic Search, was performed from inception to May 2023.
Study of the association of niacin and vitamin B6 intake with endometriosis: Evidence from NHANES 2003-2006.
Int J Gynaecol Obstet
December 2024
Department of General Gynecology, Shanghai Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the association between dietary intake of niacin and vitamin B6 and the prevalence of endometriosis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2006.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from women aged 25-45 years in the 2003-2006 NHANES. Niacin and vitamin B6 intake were assessed using 24-h dietary recalls, and endometriosis status was determined by self-report.
