Endometriosis is known for its complex manifestations and elusive phenotypes. Pathophysiological explanation with current theories fails to encompass all scenarios, which urges for further exploration of genetic and autoimmune factors. The spectrum of endometriosis presentation, ranging from superficial appearance to significant fibrosis and scarring, makes diagnosis and treatment complex. Therefore, it is important to tailor treatment by considering each patient's distinct symptoms, employing advanced imaging techniques, and providing an ongoing care approach that includes the monitoring of co-existing conditions like IBS and interstitial cystitis.

Associate Professor in Exercise Physiology, Director of Research and Programme Lead Sport and Exercise Science @ Heriot Watt University
New study - in a study led by Boston University, we found that circulating levels of cells which repair blood vessels were associated with Alzheimer's disease risk, with higher number of these regenerative cells associated with lower risk. This association persisted even when correcting for age, biological sex, and APOE4 status (one of largest genetic risk factors for AD). This has implications for promoting vascular health in those at risk of AD- and we know from other studies that diet and exercise significantly alter your circulating regenerative cells- so possibly a mechanism by which physical activity may reduce AD risk https://lnkd.in/eXP-gxXz

Microglia's role in Alzheimer's disease (AD) varies between sexes, particularly concerning female predominance in AD prevalence, symptoms, and pathology. Scientists analyzed cellular metabolism and immune responses in AD patients from ROSMAP cohort and CERAD scores. The study revealed sex-specific differences in metabolites, immune and metabolic genes, as well as pathways linked to AD progression. Furthermore, in AD females, they found increased levels of glycerophosphorylcholine and N-acetylglutamate, inflammatory metabolites connected to IL-17 signaling and other immune pathways. They also observed unique microglia-specific immunometabolism endophenotypes in females, characterized by distinct lipid- and amino acid-based IL-10 and IL-17 signaling, as well as reduced excitatory neuron-microglia communication. These findings offer new insights into the molecular reasons for female dominance in AD and suggest that future studies should include ethnically diverse cohorts for validation.

Stargardts disease, an inherited form of macular degeneration, leads to permanent vision loss in children and young adults. As photoreceptors in the macula expire, central vision blurs and black spots appear, making peripheral vision crucial. Another side effect is difficulty seeing colors. Progression is slow initially but speeds up until vision reaches legal blindness (20/200). If suspected, seek a pediatric ophthalmologist for diagnosis. Currently, no treatment exists, but gene therapy trials are ongoing. For those affected, wearing sunglasses outdoors and avoiding cigarette smoke are recommended. Ask about low vision resources to enhance quality of life. #StargardtsAwareness #PediatricEyeCare #VisionProtection #Ophthalmology #MacularDegeneration #LowVisionSupport #EyeHealth #VisionAwareness For more in-depth information, read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dExNuir5 For professionals, the Critical-Line™ LED Quantum Cabinet Kit is available HERE: https://lnkd.in/dUwsuKi9
