PURPOSE: Adenomatoid tumor (AT) of the uterus is a rare benign neoplasm of mesothelial origin. To date, few studies have reported the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and clinicopathologic features of uterine ATs. This study aimed …

Infertility is a prevalent clinical issue which disrupts normal human life and exerts an impact on fertility rates within the population. The increase in environmental pollutants, including acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), has given rise to …

OBJECTIVES: Accessory cavitated uterine malformation (ACUM) is a congenital Müllerian duct developmental anomaly. Clinically, it is commonly observed in young women presenting with progressive lower abdominal pain. Due to the small size of …

BACKGROUND: The clinical association between female reproductive disorders, such as endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS), uterine leiomyoma, and female infertility and psychiatric disorders, such as major depressive disorder(MDD),…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the impact of Day-3 embryo cell number on pregnancy, obstetric, and perinatal outcomes after frozen-thawed single blastocyst transfer (SBT).MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 6437 frozen-thawed SBT cycles p…

BACKGROUND: Perimenopausal syndrome (PMS) is common, with more than 70% of perimenopausal women experiencing symptoms such as hot flashes and anxiety. As a key regulator of host physiology, the gut microbiota may play an important role in t…

PURPOSE: To investigate the hypothesis that an imbalance between the epithelial adhesion molecule E-cadherin and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) underlies the vaginal atrophy associated with menopause. METHODS: This cross-sectional study …

BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) are major causes of pathological early pregnancy, yet their mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study aimed to identify shared molecular mediators and…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease that can cause pelvic adhesions. Severe adhesions increase the difficulty of surgery, resulting in prolonged operation time, increased intraoperative bleeding, and increased complications such…

Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disorder with incompletely understood pathogenesis. Through single-cell RNA sequencing of adenomyosis tissues, we identified epithelial-endothelial transition (EET) as a key pathological mechanism and d…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of a 3-stage treatment strategy featured by cold-knife adenomyomectomy, enhanced endometrial protection and postoperative uterine monitoring for severe diffuse adenomyosis on IVF/ICSI and perinatal o…

BACKGROUND: Copy number variations (CNVs) of uncertain significance (VUS) are increasingly identified through prenatal and postnatal genetic testing, yet their clinical interpretation remains challenging. We report a neonate with hematologi…

Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) and lung cancer cast intertwined shadows, yet the molecular nexus binding them remains largely obscured. By integrating high-resolution transcriptomic landscapes, extensive genome-wide associ…

BACKGROUND: The main objective of this study was to summarize and analyze the pregnancy outcomes in the assisted reproductive technology (ART) population with subchorionic hematoma (SCH) in the first trimester. Moreover, we aimed to explore…

The incidence of urothelial carcinoma (UC) ranks second among all urological cancers, accounting for over 90% of malignant tumors in bladder. Patients diagnosed with UC experience a lower quality of life due to rapid progression of the dise…

BACKGROUND: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) is one of the precursor stages before cervical lesions develop into cervical cancer. The spontaneous development of CIN2 is ambiguous. One part of CIN2 lesions will progress to c…

BACKGROUND: Infertility affects 8-12% of couples globally, manifesting as a complex reproductive disorder with varied causes, negatively impacting emotional, physical, and social well-being. Inflammation is implicated in many diseases, incl…

INTRODUCTION: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) demonstrates a complex pathogenesis. The uterine artery (UtA) Doppler ultrasound monitoring is clinically valuable for predicting RSA risk. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the type o…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical efficacy of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) tail anchoring to the superficial myometrium under hysteroscopic direct vision. METHODS: From March 1, 2017, to March 1, 2022, 206 pa…

Recent advances in understanding the modulatory functions of gut and gut microbiota on human diseases facilitated our focused attention on the contribution of the gut to the pathophysiological alterations of many extraintestinal organs, inc…

BACKGROUND: Limited clinical research has focused on women with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). We aim to investigate the kidney outcome and the adverse pregnancy-related outcomes of CKD women…

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Environmental pollutants, particularly organochlorine insecticides like endosulfan (ENDO), are increasingly linked to liver toxicity and related diseases. Despite its widespread historical use, the mechanisms underlying…

AIM: To explore whether preoperative vaginal dysbiosis influences the recurrence of endometrial polyps after hysteroscopic polypectomy. DESIGN: Retrospective-prospective observational cohort study. METHODS: A total of 679 patients from ou…

OBJECTIVE: This retrospective study investigated the prognostic significance and risk factors of benign pathologic types of background endometrium surrounding endometrial polyps (EPs). METHODS: We assessed 206 patients who underwent hyster…

BACKGROUND: With the increasing incidence of obesity and the childbearing-age delay among women, a debate over obesity's impacts on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes becomes hot. The potential negative effects of obesity and aging on fertilit…
