Background: Granulosa cell proliferation and survival are essential for normal ovarian function and follicular development. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as important regulators of cell proliferation and differentiation. Nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) has been implicated in various cellular processes, but its role in granulosa cell function remains unclear.

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) occurs in 5-15% of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN), resulting in poorer long-term outcomes compared to those without NS. Clinical features and renal prognosis for patients with both NS and IgAN across different kidney pathologies have not been fully elucidated. This study included patients with primary IgAN through renal biopsy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2001 to November 2021 presenting with NS.

Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) is a prevalent condition in postmenopausal women characterized by symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, and urinary tract issues due to declining estrogen levels. Despite its widespread impact on quality of life, GSM often remains underdiagnosed and without effective treatment. This study assessed the long-term efficacy of fractional CO laser treatment in alleviating GSM symptoms in perimenopausal women.

This narrative review explores the benefits and risks of cannabinoids in kidney health, particularly in individuals with pre-existing renal conditions. It discusses the roles of cannabinoid receptor ligands (phytocannabinoids, synthetic cannabinoids, and endocannabinoids) in kidney physiology. The metabolism and excretion of these substances are also highlighted, with partial elimination occurring via the kidneys.
