BackgroundEndometrial cancer (ECa) is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies, with limited therapeutic responses in metastatic or recurrent cases. The bacterial microbiota has emerged as a key modulator of carcinogenesis and antitu…
BackgroundObesity negatively affects reproduction and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes. However, its effects on lipid metabolism during embryonic development remain unclear. We examined follicular fluid (FF) lipid composition and body …
Tumor- and treatment-related factors are established predictors of ovarian cancer survival. New studies suggest a differential impact of exposures on ovarian cancer survival trajectories (i.e., rapidly fatal to long-term disease). This stud…
BackgroundMen with low testosterone levels are at an increased risk of developing metabolic syndrome, irrespective of age or obesity. However, the relationship between metabolic syndrome and testosterone levels in women remains unclear. We …
Background: Obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis (OHVIRA) syndrome, also known as Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome, is a rare syndrome characterized by the triad of uterus didelphys, obstructed hemivagina, and ipsilateral r…
BackgroundAlthough single-incision robotic cholecystectomy (SIRC) overcomes various limitations of single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC), it is associated with high cost. In this study, we intended to investigate if SIRC is re…
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas. However, little is known about the genes associated with pancreatitis severity. Our microarray analysis of pancreatic tissues from mild and severe acute pancreatitis mice models identified a…
The complexity of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) has led to considerable uncertainty in terms of diagnosis and prevalence of the condition. Here, we try to identify the IC/BPS-associated genes through an integrated ana…
ObjectiveIn the present study, we aimed to retrospectively evaluate the cumulative live birth rate (LBR) after up to three consecutive embryo transfer (ET) cycles, either fresh or frozen, in women with expected poor ovarian response (ePOR).…
Nonpersistent endocrine disrupting chemicals (npEDCs) are exogenous chemicals or mixtures of industrial agents that can interfere with the normal action of hormone with a shorter half-life and lower liposolubility. These are commonly found …
Research-questionWhat is the clinical usefulness of oocyte cryopreservation for fertility preservation in women with ovarian endometriosis?DesignClinical characteristics were retrospectively analysed in 34 women with endometrioma before a p…
This study aimed to analyze the effects of a new protocol with letrozole on the outcomes of in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles in women with endometriosis. This retrospective cohort study was conducted for women diagnosed with endometriosi…
RationalePulmonary tuberculosis and lung adenocarcinoma are highly prevalent pulmonary diseases associated with high mortality. However, the coexistence of lung cancer and pulmonary tuberculosis is rare. Further, the morphological features …
BackgroundThere are various surgical approaches of hysterectomy for benign indications. This study aimed to compare vaginal hysterectomy (VH) and laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) with respect to their complications and operative outcomes.Meth…
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a newly described adverse effect possibly associated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist therapy. We report a case of PRES after 2 doses of depot GnRH agonists in a 44-ye…
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and female sexual dysfunction (FSD) are common conditions that substantially reduce women's health. In particular, women with IC/BPS show vulvodynia, a kind of FDS that originates from co…
ObjectiveTo investigate prevalence of antiphospholipid antibody (APA) in Korean infertile women undergoing the first in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment and to evaluate the influence of APA on the subsequent IVF outcomes.MethodTwo hundre…
This study developed the pharmacokinetic (PK)-pharmacodynamic (PD) model of the testosterone-suppressive effect of leuprolide for evaluation of the sustained release (SR) depot and leuprolide solution in rats with or without prostate cancer…
ObjectiveNorth Korean women defectors have suffered from anxiety, depression, and somatization after defection. Also they have had many menstrual problems like amenorrhea. This study was done to identify the correlations of anxiety, depress…
BackgroundVarious epidemiologic factors have been shown to influence the risk of ovarian cancer development. Given the high fatality associated with this disease, it is of interest to evaluate the association of prediagnostic hormonal, repr…

Backgrounds/aimsLaparoscopic cholecystectomy can reduce postoperative pain and recovery time. However, some patients experience prolonged postoperative hospital stay. We aimed to identify factors influencing the postoperative hospital stay …
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the efficacy of raloxifene in preventing bone loss associated with long term gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) administration. METHODS: Twenty-two premenopausal women with severe endometriosis were trea…
