BACKGROUND: Thin endometrial thickness (EMT) and advanced age are both common risk factors for adverse neonatal outcomes (ANOs). However, studies evaluating the impact of EMT and combined effect of EMT and age on ANOs remain scarce with con…

Endometriosis (EMs) is an inflammatory, estrogen-dependent disease characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. Despite many efforts to develop effective treatment regimens, the overall response to halting EMs …

AIM: This study systematically evaluated the potential efficacy of serum matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) concentration as a diagnostic marker for endometriosis through meta-analysis. Early and accurate diagnosis of endometriosis, a commo…

BACKGROUND: The oil-soluble contrast medium used in hysterosalpingography has been shown to have a fertility-enhancing effect, but the underlying mechanism is unclear, especially regarding the role of window of implantation (WOI). This stud…

Abstract Purpose Endometriosis (EMT) affects millions of women worldwide and is closely associated with the body's response to oxidative stress. The role of oxidative stress markers in the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis is a pot…

PURPOSE: Estradiol valerate (Progynova®) is used as hormone therapy to supplement estrogen deficiency. This study aimed to assess the bioequivalence of an estradiol valerate tablet and its generic form, under fasting and fed conditions. ME…

Macroautophagy, commonly referred to as autophagy, is an essential cytoprotective mechanism that plays a significant role in cellular homeostasis. It has emerged as a promising target for drug development aimed at treating various cancers a…

Resveratrol, a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound, has captivated the scientific community with its promising therapeutic potential across a spectrum of diseases. This review explores the complex role of resveratrol in modulating fer…

IntroductionThin endometrium leads to an impaired implantation rate. The aim of the study is to compare the clinical outcomes of tamoxifen (TAM) and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) used in patients with thin endometrium (<7mm) in frozen-t…

ObjectiveTo assess whether the administration of Zishen Yutai Pill (ZYP) could improve the pregnancy outcomes in different subgroups of women undergoing fresh embryo transfer cycles.Materials and methodsThis is a post hoc analysis of a larg…

BACKGROUND: Literature regarding the advantages of gasless vNOTES is insufficient. The aim of our study is to compare gasless vNOTES vs. traditional vNOTES on hemodynamic profiles and outcomes in patients with benign gynecological disease. …

BACKGROUND: There is limited concrete evidence connecting serum uric acid levels to female infertility. Therefore, this study aimed to find out if serum uric acid levels are independently related to female infertility. METHODS: From the Na…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder that causes female infertility. Our recent research found that excessive oxidative stress in ovaries of endometriosis patients induced senescence of cumulus granulosa cells. Here, we analyzed…

BACKGROUND: Inflammation plays a crucial role in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), including inflammation caused by high-glucose and high-lipid (HGHL). Targeting inflammation may provide a useful strategy for preventing and …

Endometriosis is defined as a disorder in which the glands and stroma of the endometrium grow and shed periodically outside the uterine cavity. Highly prevalent in women of reproductive age, the most common clinical manifestations are chron…

Endometriosis is an inflammation-dependent disorder characterized by the abnormal growth of endometrium-like lesions. In recent years, there is a great deal of interest in the development of anti-inflammatory therapy. Herein, an acid-sensit…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop multiphase big-data-based prediction models of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and a smartphone app for risk calculation and patients' self-monitoring.MethodsMultiphase prediction models were de…

Ovarian pregnancy (OP) coupled with tubal ectopic pregnancy is rare. We present a case of coexistent ovarian and tubal ectopic pregnancies in the same adnexa resulting from in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) for tubal occlu…

The mechanism by which endometriosis, a common gynecological disease characterized by chronic pelvic pain and infertility, causes infertility remains elusive. Luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome, the most common type of ovulatory dysfun…

Background: Peritoneal fibrosis (PF) is an intractable complication in patients on long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a key pro-fibrogenic factor involved in PD-associated PF, and endoglin, as a core…

PURPOSE: To investigate how the extent of fibrosis in adenomyosis lesions contributes to heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB). METHODS: We recruited 57 women with histologically confirmed adenomyosis, 29 of whom reported moderate/heavy bleeding …

BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive disease characterized by chronic inflammation and airway remodeling. Human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) plays a critical role in various inflammatory or fibrotic diseas…

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a special class of endogenous RNAs characterized by closed loop structures lacking 5' to 3' polarity and polyadenylated tails. They are widely present in various organisms and are more stable and conserved than …

STUDY QUESTION: Do inactivated coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) vaccines affect IVF outcomes among the vaccine recipients? SUMMARY ANSWER: The receipt of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines before ovarian stimulation has little effect on the …

STUDY QUESTION: Does inoculation with inactivated vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) before frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) affect live birth and neonatal outcomes? SUMMARY ANSWER: Inactivated Covid-19 vaccines did no…
