ObjectiveTo estimate the risk of cesarean scar diverticulum associated with the timing of cesarean section.Patients and methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study involving three Chinese hospitals. A total of 11,132 women were included in…
BackgroundNon-neoplastic gynecological diseases substantially impact women of childbearing age (WCBA), contributing to global burden. Despite growing awareness, disparities in healthcare access remain widespread across regions and socioecon…
BackgroundDysmenorrhea impacts 45% to 95% of women of childbearing age globally. Research on the neuro-immune-endocrine regulatory network has grown by 22.3% annually over the past decade, yet the field faces challenges including fragmented…
Endometriosis (EM) is an intractable gynecological condition with uncertain etiology. Gut microbiota have been increasingly implicated in EM, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we identify a gut microbe-metabolite-uterus ax…
The immune system is a pivotal regulator of reproductive physiology, maintaining tissue homeostasis essential for successful pregnancy while contributing to infertility and reproductive disorders when dysregulated. Natural products represen…
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…
OBJECTIVE: To identify factors associated with clinical pregnancy and live birth in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles among women with adenomyosis and to develop internally validated prediction models using readily available clinical, lab…
OBJECTIVE: This retrospective cohort study compares perioperative outcomes of reduced Trendelenburg positioning (≤ 20°) versus conventional steep angles (≥ 30°) in gasless vNOTES for benign gynecologic conditions. METHODS: Of 102 enrolled p…
Adenomyosis (ADM) is a benign condition associated with various gynecological disorders. However, effective treatment options are limited, highlighting the urgent need for novel therapeutic targets. This study identified abnormal activation…
BackgroundIntrauterine adhesions (IUA) are fibrotic scars that impair endometrial regeneration, and compromise fertility. Emerging evidence implicates circular RNAs (circRNAs) in fibrotic remodeling, but it remains unclear how the circRNA l…
ObjectivesTo investigate the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) regarding mammary gland hyperplasia (MGH) in adult women from Shandong province, China.DesignA cross-sectional study.SettingThis study was conducted in Shandong province,…
The paradigm shift of lactate from a mere metabolic byproduct to a pleiotropic signaling molecule, coupled with the discovery of lactylation, provides a crucial framework for understanding how metabolic reprogramming drives systemic patholo…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by immune microenvironment dysregulation, with the IL-33/ST2L signaling axis playing a crucial role in macrophage polarization and disease progression. Despite growin…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive and metabolic disorder with a complex and yet unresolved etiology. Although ovulation induction therapy can improve ovulatory function, the natural pregnancy rate and pregnancy outco…
BackgroundOvarian cancer is a major female reproductive health issue with heterogeneous biological features on its subtypes, which may require different therapeutic strategies. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists were reporte…
BACKGROUND: This study aims to use non-targeted metabolomics to analyze the metabolic characteristics of follicular fluid in patients with decreased ovarian reserve (DOR) and explore the mediating role of these metabolites in DOR and assist…

Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a calcium-dependent protein with high affinity for phospholipids, and its multifunctional nature has drawn increasing attention in the onset and progression of various disorders of the female reproductive system (FRS).…
Endometriosis (EMS) remains understudied in effective management strategies. The interplay between macrophage dysfunction and microbiota-derived immune signals emerges as a potential mechanism in EMS pathogenesis, suggesting its relevance f…
BackgroundThis study aimed to analyze the clinical data within one year of the patients who underwent hysteroscopic endometrial polypectomy with levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) insertion, and to identify the risk fact…
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide, has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, endometriosis, tumors, and primary headaches, including migraine. The development of a novel, fast-acting CGRP receptor antagonist administe…
