Endometriosis and susceptibility to COVID-19 infection: a floating river without blanks?
This opinion piece questions whether endometriosis influences COVID-19 susceptibility by reviewing recent literature on the topic.
One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works
This short article is commentary/brief communication discussing the topic of whether people with endometriosis have altered susceptibility to COVID-19, framed as a critical review of existing evidence rather than presenting original study data. It references prior case-control work on COVID-19 susceptibility in endometriosis and situates the discussion within related molecular research on non-coding RNAs and microRNAs proposed to be involved in both endometriosis and COVID-19. The paper’s limitation is that it does not provide new empirical results, and instead relies on the scope and quality of referenced studies. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on the evidence linking endometriosis to susceptibility to COVID-19 infection.
