PROBLEMS: To investigate the impact of anti-endometrial antibodies (EMAb) on pregnancy outcomes in infertile patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) and to assess the potential value of personalized treatment strategies. METHOD OF…

Endometriosis exhibits epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-aligned traits that promote invasion and lesion persistence. We investigated whether poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) coordinates β-catenin/TCF4 activity with EMT programs…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age women, yet non-hormonal therapeutic options remain limited. This study investigates the role of the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome axis in endom…

AbstractThis retrospective study investigated factors associated with abnormal endometrial peristaltic waves (EPWs) and evaluated the impact of Atosiban intervention on clinical outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. A tota…

Abstract Introduction Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder characterized by immune dysregulation. This condition profoundly affects the quality of life and reproductive health of nearly 200 million women of rep…

BackgroundHypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are common complications that adversely affect pregnancy outcomes. However, data on their independent and combined impacts on fetal growth and perin…

Defective endometrial receptivity represents an important factor in recurrent implantation failure (RIF), though its precise regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. While nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is abundantly expressed in huma…

ObjectiveAdditive human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG)/recombinant luteinizing hormone (r-LH) to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) can improve pregnancy outcomes in patients with poor ovarian response during assisted reproductive procedures…

OBJECTIVES: Patients with a septate uterus often have endometriosis, which can exacerbate their adverse pregnancy outcomes. We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with a septate uterus complicat…

BackgroundThe longitudinal vaginal septum and oblique vaginal septum are female müllerian duct anomalies that are relatively less diagnosed but severely fertility-threatening in clinical practice. Ultrasound imaging is commonly used to exam…

BackgroundIron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a common health problem worldwide. The objective of this study was to noninvasively and quantitatively evaluate early changes in left ventricular systolic function in patients with IDA using the lef…

Coridius chinensis is a traditional insect medicine in China. It is the dried whole insect of Coridius chinensis (Dallas) form the Pentatomidae family. Modern medical and pharmaceutical studies have successfully isolated and identified over…

IntroductionThe optimal dosage of recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH) and its impact on endometrial thickness (EMT) when administered alongside recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) during controlled ovarian stim…

BACKGROUND: There was inconsistency in optimal endometrial preparation protocol for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in patients with endometriosis. We conducted this study to investigate the effect of different endometrial preparation p…

Abstract Objective: The aims of this study were to study the distribution of the serum VD levels among infertile people and to analyze the relationships between VD levels and the basic conditions of infertile patients, as well as laboratory…

BackgroudThis study's objectives were to compare the clinical, perinatal, and obstetrical outcomes of patients with different estradiol (E2) levels in fresh single-blastocyst-transfer (SBT) cycles under an early follicular phase prolonged r…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does adenomyosis affect IVF independent of decreased ovarian reserve, and what are the characteristics and IVF outcome of the ultra-long gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist protocol in adenomyosis? DESIGN: Obs…

BackgroundIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common functional gastrointestinal disorders characterized by recurrent abdominal pain associated with defecation or a change in bowel habits. Leading to significant negative effec…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the potential role of IL-10 in regulating the receptivity marker HOXA10 in the endometrium of women with adenomyosis. METHODS: The expression levels of IL-10, HOXA-10, STAT3, and p-STAT3 i…

Gene fusions play a critical role in some cancers and can serve as important clinical targets. In epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), the contribution of fusions, especially by histological type, is unclear. We therefore screened for recurrent…

and conception vessel, such as Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Guanyuan (CV 4), Zigong (EX-CA 1), Zusanli (ST 36). And the reinforcing and reducing technic are applied accordingly.
