BACKGROUND: Pregnant women, as well as patients with endometriosis and some ovarian tumors, may experience a state of high estrogen levels. However, the role of high estrogen in platelet function and thrombosis remains controversial, which …

BACKGROUND: Expulsion of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) limits its effectiveness in adenomyosis management, particularly in patients with anatomical risk factors. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and sh…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is an oestrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease that primarily manifests as chronic pelvic pain and infertility. EMS-associated infertility is closely linked to diminished ovarian function and oocyte q…

BackgroundThe ovary is a vital and dynamic reproductive organ. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) plays a vital role in preserving female fertility. However, the cellular subtypes most susceptible to cryoinjury and the molecular mechanis…

Gynecological diseases represent a persistent global health burden. According to a WHO report, the global incidence of gynecological diseases exceeds 65%. Furthermore, over 90% of women suffer from gynecological issues to varying degrees. T…

BackgroundTo investigate whether cured tuberculosis affect assisted reproductive outcomes in infertile women.MethodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted to compare assisted reproductive outcomes between cured tuberculosis and non-tube…

Pyroptosis is a lytic form of regulated cell death driven by inflammasome activation and gasdermin-mediated membrane rupture, characterized by robust inflammatory amplification. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a multifunctional nuclear p…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Do iron metabolism and ferroptosis influence oocyte and embryo quality in patients with endometriosis undergoing IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), or in a mouse model? DESIGN: Fifty-seven patients with laparos…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) often induce menopausal symptoms, negatively affecting women's psychological, emotional, and physical health. Kuntai capsule is widely used in clinical practic…

Endometriosis (EMs) is characterized by dysregulated persistence and enhanced invasiveness of ectopic endometrial cells. Current treatment strategies remain limited by high recurrence rates and considerable adverse effects. Although iron ov…

This study aimed to develop and validate a multimodal deep learning model that leverages 2D grayscale ultrasound (US) images alongside readily available clinical data to improve diagnostic performance for ovarian cancer (OC). A retrospectiv…

The emergence of organoids has received widespread attention for faithful recapitulation of physiological and pathological conditions, together with overcoming the major bottleneck of extrapolating laboratory findings from model systems to …

Endometriosis exhibits epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-aligned traits that promote invasion and lesion persistence. We investigated whether poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) coordinates β-catenin/TCF4 activity with EMT programs…

Adenomyosis is a prevalent disorder of the archimetra, historically conflated with endometriosis but possessing a unique pathobiological trajectory. This review synthesises current molecular evidence to propose a unified mechanistic framewo…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a prevalent gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of functional endometrial tissue, and its fibrotic pathology represents a primary contributor to chronic pain and infertility in affec…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers multiple advantages in the treatment of endometriosis (EMS). Bushen Wenyang Huayu Decoction (BWHD) is widely used in clinical practice for managing EMS. It can signif…

Endometriosis is characterized by progressive fibrosis and limited therapeutic options. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death, has been implicated in multiple pathological conditions, but its relevance to fibroblast-m…

PurposeTo systematically conduct a retrospective summary of the optimal surgical strategies and techniques for managing various types of unilateral genital tract obstruction with ipsilateral renal anomaly (UGTOIRA) syndrome, and to establis…

Neurogenic bladder (NB)-induced fibrosis is the major cause of irreversible bladder dysfunction, yet the underlying mechanisms remain undefined. Here, leveraging single-cell RNA sequencing, the fibrotic landscape of NB is delineated and a d…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis occurs when tissue from the inner lining of the endometrium grows into the muscle wall of the myometrium. Previous studies have suggested that High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) combined with medications may im…

The purpose of this meta-analysis was to systematically assess the efficacy of ultrasound-guided therapy of ovarian endometriosis cyst (OEC). Several databases were searched to gather published studies on the efficacy of ultrasound-guided t…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, a common chronic gynecological disorder, involves cellular autophagy and inflammatory processes in its pathogenesis. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms of autophagy and inflammation in endometriosis remai…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriomsis (EMs) is a complex and chronic gynecological disease characterized by distressing symptoms. Its pathogenesis remains unknown, and there is no effective treatment. Therefore, establishing patient-derived models i…

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…

IntroductionReliable biomarkers for the diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis (CP) and pancreatic fibrosis severity are lacking, hindering effective treatment and management. Histologic fibrosis is a hallmark of late-stage CP, but noninvasive m…
