Multimodal data analysis reveals asynchronous aging dynamics across female reproductive organs.
Article in Nature aging, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Female reproductive aging has systemic health implications, yet tissue-level dynamics remain poorly understood. Here we integrate deep learning analysis of 1,112 histology images with RNA sequencing from 659 samples across seven female reproductive organs in donors aged 20-70 years. We uncover asynchronous trajectories: the ovary ages gradually, whereas the uterus shows an abrupt molecular and morphological shift around menopause. This uterine transition is independently supported by plasma proteomics data from a large population cohort, indicating that organ-linked aging signatures are detectable in circulation. Tissue segmentation highlights the myometrium as strongly age affected, with extracellular matrix remodeling and immune activation. Epithelial tissues also show coordinated age-related remodeling, with a sharp menopausal transition in the vaginal epithelium. Multi-omics factor analysis links these histological changes to nonlinear gene-expression shifts enriched for reproductive traits, including pelvic organ prolapse and age at menarche. Together, these findings establish menopause as a key inflection point in female aging and provide a tissue-resolved, multi-dataset framework for late-life health.
