BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in ureteral motility often precede morphological changes, and early subtle lesions are easily overlooked, thereby increasing the risk of renal impairment. However, existing imaging assessments tend to focus on qual…

Gynecological cancers present significant therapeutic challenges due to heterogeneity, drug resistance, and the lack of precise diagnostic tools. Selenium (Se), an essential trace element with intrinsic anticancer activity, has emerged as a…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common gynecological disorder in reproductive-age women, with impaired endometrial receptivity as a key contributor to infertility. However, a comprehensive single-cell atlas of the eutopic endometrium duri…

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a leading cause of gynecologic cancer mortality, with survival prediction limited by existing prognostic models that fail to capture tumor heterogeneity. Conventional methods lack precision for individualized risk ass…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Despite several existing theories, the etiology and molecular mechanisms of endometriosis remain to be investigated. Here we report that transcript…

Endometriosis (EMS) is characterised by a disrupted peritoneal immune microenvironment where M2 macrophage polarization and impaired phagocytosis promote lesion survival. Single-cell RNA-seq (ScRNAseq) of the peritoneal macrophages from EMS…

Globally, ovarian cancer remains a leading cause of gynecologic cancer death. This poor prognosis is primarily attributed to advanced disease at diagnosis, a high propensity for recurrence, and the inadequate therapeutic efficacy of current…

BACKGROUND: Dysmenorrhea is a cramping pain during menstrual period and the leading cause for recurrent short-term school absenteeism among adolescent girls. However, evidence on the factors associated with the occurrence of dysmenorrhea, s…

BACKGROUND: To assess and compare the efficiency and outcomes between prone split-leg position and lithotomy position in posterior uterine myomectomy by transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES). METHODS: 33 pat…

OBJECTIVES: To explore the clinical relevant factors of patients with recurrent and non-recurrent abdominal wall endometriosis after surgical treatment, to further study the relevant risk factors of abdominal wall endometriosis recurrence, …

BACKGROUND: Prior research indicates a potential link between dyslipidemia and endometriosis (EMs). However, the relationship between remnant cholesterol (RC) and EMs has not been thoroughly investigated. Consequently, looking into and clar…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess whether different endometrial preparation regimens-natural cycle (NC), hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist pretreatment followed by HRT (GnRH-a + HRT)-are associa…

RATIONALE: Sjögren syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease with a variety of clinical presentations. Successful pregnancies and deliveries among these patients remain challenging. This manuscript describes a case report of diagnosis,…

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a recognized global public health problem. However, there are still limitations in the available therapeutic approaches and a lack of clinically effective drugs. Therefore, an in-depth exploration of the seco…

Evidence have indicated a correlation between sleep disorders and endometriosis, but the causal relationship remains uncertain. This study utilized Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to investigate the causal associations between sleep d…

PROBLEM: The relationship between abortion and endometriosis (EMS) has been inconsistent in previous observational studies and remains controversial. We intended to examine the causal relationship between abortion and EMS. METHODS OF STUDY…

BACKGROUND: Fibrogenesis is a common pathological feature of endometriotic lesions and contributes to the development of endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain and infertility. TGF-β is a critical factor in the induction of fibrogenes…

OBJECTIVE: Cesarean section (CS) rates have risen globally, with cesarean scar defect (CSD) being a common complication. Few studies have investigated the impact of CSD on in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection frozen embry…

Distinct PAEs are implicated in breast cancer progression through multiple molecular pathways. This study aims to elucidate the potential mechanisms in common by which PAEs promote breast cancer progression. Dibutyl phthalate (DBP), benzyl …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the determinants affecting live birth outcomes in fresh embryo transfer among polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients using various machine learning (ML) algorithms and to construct predictive models, offering no…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction, and polycystic ovaries. The quality of oocytes in PCOS patients remains poor, leading to poor pregnancy outcomes. T…

Reduced lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 (LEF1) expression in patients with adenomyosis during the mid-secretory phase leads to impaired endometrial receptivity, affecting embryo implantation. This study investigated the molecular mechani…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and is frequently associated with chronic pelvic pain. Patients with endometriosis often experience comorbid depression and anxiety, but the underlying mechanisms…

Emerging evidence suggests that microbiota dysbiosis plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of endometrial cancer (EC), a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women globally. However, few studies have simultaneously examined both th…
