BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to poor embryo quality and recurrent assisted reproductive technology (ART) failure. Mitochondrial transplantation (MIT), which involves supplementing oocytes with exogenous mitochondria, ha…

BACKGROUND: The clinical association between female reproductive disorders, such as endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS), uterine leiomyoma, and female infertility and psychiatric disorders, such as major depressive disorder(MDD),…

BACKGROUND: The main objective of this study was to summarize and analyze the pregnancy outcomes in the assisted reproductive technology (ART) population with subchorionic hematoma (SCH) in the first trimester. Moreover, we aimed to explore…

BACKGROUND: Women with poor ovarian response (POR) tended to have lower success rates for IVF/ICSI due to fewer oocytes retrieved. Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been proposed to improve ovarian response. METHOD: This study aime…

Poor ovarian response (POR) is a challenge in reproductive medicine, often leading to suboptimal outcomes in IVF/ICSI cycles. Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections have emerged as a potential therapy to enhance ovarian function. …

BACKGROUND: Many studies have found an association between mood-disorder-related traits and endometriosis and adenomyosis. However, the cause-effect relationship remains unclear. AIMS: We conducted Mendelian randomisation analyses to evalu…

BACKGROUND: In-vitro-grow (IVG) of preantral follicles is essential for female fertility preservation, while practical approach for improvement is far from being explored. Studies have indicated that neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) is preferentially …

The aim of this retrospective analysis is to explore whether growth hormone (GH) pretreatment is beneficial for patients with poor ovarian reserve undertaking in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment. Poo…

PURPOSE: Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) play crucial roles in follicular development and oocyte maturation. This study aimed to investigate and compare the expression of these proteins in ov…

PURPOSE: To explore the effects of controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) on the expression of growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) in oocytes and granulosa cells from patients with or without polyc…

To investigate the expression pattern and significance of two important oocyte-secreted factors: growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) during oocyte maturation in women with polycystic ovary syndro…
