Causal Links Between Brain Functional Networks and Endometriosis: A Large-Scale Genetic-Driven Observational Study
This study highlights a complex bidirectional relationship between brain functional networks and endometriosis. Increased activity in specific networks may protect against or predispose individuals to certain subtypes of endometriosis. Conversely, endometriosis also can influence brain connectivity, potentially contributing to cognitive and emotional symptoms.
