Article Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to perform a comprehensive meta-analysis of the association between coffee consumption and risk of endometrial cancer.
Methods: Eligible studies were identified by searching the PubMed and EMBASE databases. The dose-response relationship as well as the risk of endometrial cancer for the highest versus the lowest categories of coffee consumption were assessed. Subgroup analyses considering the menopausal and receptor statuses, the smoking status, and the BMI (Body Mass Index) were performed in order to identify potential confounders.
Results: We identified a total of 12 studies eligible for meta-analysis. A dose-response meta-analysis showed a decreased risk of endometrial cancer. Moreover, a subgroup analysis indicated that coffee consumption is significantly associated with a decreased risk of postmenopausal cancer. Increasing coffee consumption by four cups per day was associated with a 20% reduction in endometrial cancer risk (relative risk (RR) 0.80; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.72 to 0.89) and with a 24% reduction in postmenopausal cancer risk (RR 0.76; 95% CI 0.69 to 0.83).
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that increased coffee consumption is associated with decreased risk of endometrial cancer, and this association is observed also for postmenopausal cancer.

Background: Reproductive-age women with intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) following uterine surgery may be asymptomatic or may experience light or absent menstruation, infertility, preterm delivery, and/or peripartum hemorrhage. Understanding procedure- and technique-specific risks and the available evidence on the impact of surgical adjuvants is essential to the design of future research.
Objective And Rationale: While many systematic reviews have been published, most deal with singular aspects of the problem.

Background: Red and processed meat consumption is extensively linked to chronic disease risk in observational studies, with robust meta-analyses demonstrating significant positive associations for colorectal, breast, endometrial, and lung cancers, type 2 diabetes (T2DM), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and all-cause mortality. Dose-response relationships indicate elevated risks even at moderate intakes. Moreover, processed meats consistently show stronger detrimental effects than unprocessed red meats.

Introduction: Uterine fibroids are a common cause of infertility, and myomectomy remains a key surgical intervention to improve reproductive outcomes. However, the occurrence of an undetected pregnancy during myomectomy is rare and poses significant clinical risks.
Case Presentation: We report a 34-year-old woman, nulliparous with a history of secondary infertility and three first-trimester miscarriages.

Objective: To identify associations between race, neighborhood disadvantage, and outcomes in women with stage I-III endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC) treated at a tertiary referral center.
Methods: This retrospective tumor registry study included patients with stage I-III EEC between 1/2006 and 12/2022. Progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by race and neighborhood disadvantage, stratified by Area Deprivation Index (ADI; national quartile).

Obesity is closely linked to an increased incidence of several gynecological conditions and poses significant challenges to their surgical management. Among these, endometrial cancer stands out due to its high prevalence in patients with elevated body mass index, with nearly 60% of those requiring primary surgical treatment classified as obese or morbidly obese. The coexistence of multiple comorbidities in this population contributes to a heightened risk of perioperative and postoperative complications.
