Perinatal transmission of Borrelia burgdorferi: advancing scientific and clinical understanding of Lyme disease in pregnancy
Frontiers in medicine ·doi:10.3389/fmed.2026.1794120

Perinatal transmission of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (Bb), the spirochetal agent of Lyme disease, is an issue of public health importance and research significance. This alternate mode of transmission and the potential risk of adverse …

Chlorogenic Acid Ameliorates Chronic Unpredictable Stress-Induced Diminished Ovarian Reserve Through Ovarian Renin-Angiotensin System.
Molecular nutrition & food research ·doi:10.1002/mnfr.202400814

Chronic stress could impair ovarian reserve through hyperactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, leading to reduced oocyte quality and endocrine dysfunction. The ovarian renin-angiotensin system (OVRAS) modulates follic…

Meclizine improves endometrial repair and reduces simulated menstrual bleeding in mice with induced adenomyosis
American journal of obstetrics and gynecology ·doi:10.1016/j.ajog.2024.02.016

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is one of the structural causes of abnormal uterine bleeding, which often presents as heavy menstrual bleeding. Mostly because of the poor understanding of its pathophysiology, medical management of adenomyosis-induc…
