BackgroundMultimorbidity is better prevented in younger ages than in older ages. This study aims to identify the differences in comorbidity patterns in middle-aged inpatients from China and the United Kingdom (UK).MethodsWe utilized 184,133…

Abstract Background Previous work indicated that the implantation and pregnancy rates of women with endometriosis are lower than those of healthy women during in-vitro fertilisation and embryonic transfer. And there are numerous miRNAs in h…

BackgroundThe factors affecting the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) of PCOS (Polycystic ovary syndrom) patients who received in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET) needs more research for a b…

IntroductionThe relationship between basal luteinizing hormone (LH) and reproductive outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing intrauterine insemination (IUI) has remained largely unknown, warranting further investi…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of hysteroscopic hysteroplasty in the treatment of uterine malformation complicated by primary reproductive disorders.MethodsWomen with unexplained primary infertility, repeated in vitro fertilization (IVF)…

BackgroundOne of the most critical periods for the loss of pig embryos is the 12th day of gestation when implantation begins. Recent studies have shown that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play important regulatory roles during pregnancy. Circular…

BackgroundAs an inevitable event after kidney transplantation, ischemia‒reperfusion injury (IRI) can lead to a decrease in kidney transplant success. The search for signature genes of renal ischemia‒reperfusion injury (RIRI) is helpful in i…

PurposeTo explore the impact of inactivated COVID-19 vaccination on ovarian reserve as assessed by serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentration.MethodsA total of 3160 women were included in this single-center retrospective cohort study …

Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disease that is linked with immune cells, specifically macrophages. IL-33 secreted from macrophages is known to accelerate the progression of endometriosis. The periodic and repeated bleeding th…

Abstract Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disease which linked with immune cells, specifically macrophages. And IL-33 secreted from macrophages is known to accelerate the progression of endometriosis. The periodic and repeated …

Ultrasensitive identification of biomarkers in biofluids is essential for the precise diagnosis of diseases. For the gold standard approaches, polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, cumbersome operational steps hin…

Background/objectivesWomen are ubiquitously exposed to endocrine disruptors, including phthalates. Ovarian follicles undergoing folliculogenesis (indirectly measured by ovarian volume) produce anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and estradiol (E2)…

RationalePrimary clear cell adenocarcinoma of the rectovaginal septum is a very rare event.Patient concernsWe reported a case of a 55-year-old woman diagnosed with a lump in the vaginal rectal septum after undergoing hysterectomy with bilat…

BackgroundThe aim of the study was to investigate the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) in differentiating TP53-mutant from wild type, low-risk from non-low-risk …

We report a singular case of renal embolism in a hitherto healthy 46-year-old female. The patient initially presented with symptoms of exertional distress and chest discomfort. Following an extensive diagnostic workup, she was subsequently …

Cisplatin is a common anticancer drug able to kill tumor cells, but it causes adverse reactions in the kidney, digestive tract, and other systems. The antitumor effects of cisplatin are mainly due to its ability to bind to the DNA in tumor …

BackgroundThe KangDuo-Surgical Robot-01 (KD-SR-01) system is a new surgical robot recently developed in China. The aim of this study was to present our single-center experience and mid-term outcomes of urological procedures using the KD-SR-…

BACKGROUND: Endosalpingiosis is a pathologic diagnosis of ectopic epithelium resembling the fallopian tubes. It has been described with clinical characteristics that are similar to endometriosis. The primary objective is to determine if end…

ObjectiveEstrogen is indispensable in health and disease and mainly functions through its receptors. The protection of the cardiovascular system by estrogen and its receptors has been recognized for decades. Numerous studies with a focus on…

OBJECTIVE: To explore a non-routine method of oocyte retrieval in patients with difficulty in obtaining oocytes via the vagina during a cycle of in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)-embryo transfer (ET). MET…

BackgroundHysterectomy is a widely used surgical approach for benign gynecological conditions, although recently there have been differences in the surgical route selected in different regions.AimsTo estimate recent temporal trends, this st…

Most pregnancy losses worldwide are caused by implantation failure for which there is a lack of effective therapeutics. Extracellular vesicles are considered potential endogenous nanomedicines because of their unique biological functions. H…

OBJECTIVE: The clinical application of magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) surgery for treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids is often limited because of the bowel between the abdominal wall and uterus. If bowel…

Numerous case reports of acute pancreatitis (AP) induced by olanzapine have been published. Little is, however, known about the clinical features of olanzapine-induced AP. The aim of the study was to explore the clinical characteristics of …

Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is characterized by congenital malformations of Müllerian structures, including the uterus and upper two-thirds of the vagina in women. Until now, the etiology of this disease has remained unkn…
