Accurate patient-specific structural assessment of adenomyosis is essential for fertility-preserving treatment planning, but pelvic T2-weighted MRI is difficult to parse because the uterus, endometrium, ectopic glands, hemorrhagic foci, and…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial fibrosis can disrupt the uterine junctional zone and lead to infertility. Accurate and noninvasive evaluation of junctional zone alterations is important to clinical treatment. Although conventional T2-weighted imagi…

PURPOSE: Adenomyosis (AM) with dysmenorrhea (AMD) is a global public health concern that may involve abnormal brain function and heightened vulnerability to anxiety and depression. This study aimed to investigate static and dynamic regional…

Female reproductive health depends on precisely coordinated metabolic, hormonal, immune, and epigenetic networks. Lactylation is a lactate-derived lysine post-translational modification that provides a direct mechanism by which glycolytic m…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder affecting reproductive-aged women and is associated with an increased risk of early pregnancy loss (EPL). The underlying mechanisms remain multifactorial and poorly understood.…

RNA modification has been established as a pivotal field in epitranscriptomics, representing an emerging, dynamic, and precise regulatory layer in gene expression control. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most prevalent internal RNA modificati…

Fisetin, a flavonoid widely present in natural plants, exhibits diverse pharmacological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and anti-aging effects. Its protective roles within the mammalian reproductive syst…

Infected wounds heal considerably slowly among patients with diabetes because of biofilm barriers and immune dysregulation. Therefore, treatment strategies must simultaneously eliminate infection and accelerate healing. In this study, we pr…

BACKGROUND: The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) FAM83H-AS1 plays a critical role in the development and progression of various cancers. This study evaluates the feasibility of serum FAM83H-AS1 as a diagnostic and staging marker for ovarian canc…

BACKGROUND: Keratoconus (KC) is a progressive bilateral corneal ectatic disorder characterized by corneal thinning, irregular astigmatism, and subsequent vision impairment. The main purpose of this study is to investigate sex hormone-mediat…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the risk of PCOS increases in patients with T2DM of reproductive age. The bidirectional link between PCOS and T2DM has…

BACKGROUND: Compared with overnight insemination, it remains uncertain whether short-term insemination can improve outcomes in poor responders, and few studies have used cumulative live birth rate as the primary endpoint. The study aims to …

BACKGROUND: Pyometra is an uncommon gynecologic disorder characterized by the accumulation of pus within the uterine cavity typically resulting from cervical obstruction. Spontaneous perforation of pyometra (SPP) is extremely rare but may r…

Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, affecting 3 to 8% of pregnancies. Currently, no clinically useful predictive biomarker exists. Preeclampsia is characterised by systemic inflammatory response…

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to identify the most diagnostically valuable features among the 11 MRI features of Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) described in the joint consensus statement by the Society of Abdominal Radiology (SAR) and the Eur…

The rapid advances in epigenetic and epitranscriptomic regulatory mechanisms have opened new prospects for precision therapies in various diseases. N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) is currently the only known eukaryotic RNA ac4C acetyltransfe…

BACKGROUND: Ureteral reimplantation (UR) is the standard treatment for distal ureteral stricture, yet postoperative anastomotic restenosis impairs outcomes, with conventional imaging unable to quantify urinary tract obstruction and dysfunct…

Sirtuins (SIRT1-SIRT7) are evolutionarily conserved NAD+-dependent deacylases that function as metabolic sensors, coupling cellular metabolic state to epigenetic, transcriptional and post-translational regulatory programs across distinct su…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometriosis (OEMs) is a primary cause of female infertility and is driven primarily by fibrosis, which disrupts the ovarian follicular microenvironment. Pirfenidone (PFD), an FDA-approved antifibrotic drug, holds promi…

Regulated cell death is essential for development, tissue homeostasis, host defense, and disease. Beyond apoptosis, it is now clear that other forms of cell death, including ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and necroptosis, also contribute to patho…

OBJECTIVE: The ovary, as an important reproductive organ, tightly regulates the litter size of rabbits through its complex network of genes. This study aims to identify candidate genes related to litter size in rabbits through RNA sequencin…

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…

Poly(lactic acid-lactic acid) (PLGA) has demonstrated significant application potential in tumor-targeted drug delivery systems due to its excellent biocompatibility, degradability, and multifunctionality for loading various therapeutic age…

BACKGROUND: With the rising rate of cesarean section delivery worldwide, the development of cesarean scar diverticulum (CSD) is increasingly observed, with a prevenance ranging from 24% to 70%. CSD is associated with abnormal uterine bleedi…
