Long COVID and menstruation: bidirectional associations and potential mechanisms.
·doi:10.21203/rs.3.rs-5725816/v1

Abstract Women have reported both menstrual disruption following SARS-CoV-2 infection and that long COVID symptoms change across the menstrual cycle. Yet there is a lack of female-specific research on COVID and menstruation. We aimed to de…

Author response: Kynurenine monooxygenase blockade reduces endometriosis-like lesions, improves visceral hyperalgesia, and rescues mice from a negative behavioural phenotype in experimental endometriosis
·doi:10.7554/elife.99226.2.sa0

Endometriosis is a common and debilitating neuro-inflammatory disorder that is associated with chronic pain. Definitive diagnosis is based on the presence of endometrial-like tissue (lesions) in sites outside the uterus. Kynurenine monooxyg…
