ObjectiveAdvanced gastric cancer remains highly refractory to therapy, with limited immunotherapy efficacy due to tumor microenvironment heterogeneity. Primary cilia, microtubule-based organelles involved in tumor progression, remain insuff…

BACKGROUND: Triclosan, a widely used environmental contaminant with endocrine-disrupting properties, has been increasingly implicated in female reproductive disorders. However, the potential mechanistic link between triclosan exposure and e…

BACKGROUD: Ovarian aging can lead to early menopause, infertility, and even premature senility in female patients, seriously impairing the quality of life. Unfortunatly, it is still lack of effective protection strategies against ovarian ag…

Adenomyosis, a prevalent gynecologic disorder affecting women of reproductive age, is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue within the myometrium. The involvement and underlying mechanisms of ferroptosis in adenomyosis…

The reprogrammed osteogenic phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is considered a critical mechanism of vascular calcification (VC) in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Currently, the RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is dec…

MicroRNAs play crucial roles in regulating inflammatory responses and disease progression. Since its identification on chromosome 17q11.2 in 2005, miR-451 has emerged as a key regulator of multiple physiological and pathological processes. …

PURPOSE: The study aimed to develop a nomogram to predict live birth outcomes in infertile women with adenomyosis undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data were collected from the Center for Reproductive Medicine, Shandong…

BackgroundInflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic, idiopathic inflammatory disorder of the intestines. Oxymatrine (OMT) is a naturally active substance found in the desiccated roots of Sophora flavescens. It possesses anti-tumor, anti…

ObjectiveTo study if the transfer of warmed blastocysts without blastocoele re-expansion is effective and safe.MethodsThree thousand one hundred ninety-six frozen-thawed single blastocyst transfer cycles were conducted. The embryos were cat…

BackgroundPrevious studies have identified that exposure to heavy metals increases the prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHDs); however, limited information exists regarding the association between combined exposure to barium (Ba) and…

BackgroundTrophoblast cells are a critical component of retained products of conception (RPOC). While mifepristone is widely used as a non-invasive treatment for RPOC, its precise molecular mechanisms in trophoblast regulation remain poorly…

Endometriosis involves ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue, yet the spatial transcriptomic and metabolic landscape of ovarian endometriomas remains poorly understood. This investigation presents a comprehensive multi-omics analysis of…

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is characterized by irreversible fibrotic destruction and impaired pancreatic function. CP disrupts lipid metabolism and causes the imbalance of gut microbiota which in turn exacerbates pancreatic fibrosis. Statins…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial endocrine disorder characterized by chronic anovulation, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovarian morphology, leading to infertility. Elevated basal luteinizing hormone (bLH) levels in PC…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine metabolic syndrome characterized by ovulation disorders, hyperandrogenemia, and polycystic ovaries, which seriously affect the psychological and physical health of childbearing women. N6-meth…

UNLABELLED: Endometriosis (EM) and adenomyosis (AM) are interrelated gynecological disorders characterized by the aberrant presence of endometrial tissue and are frequently linked with chronic pelvic pain and infertility, yet their pathogen…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic selection of abnormal uterine bleeding with ovulatory dysfunction (AUB-O) among Chinese women and analyze the impact of various factors. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study involving 3527 pati…

This study aimed to investigate the association between insulin resistance (IR) and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). A retrospective analysis compared glucose and insulin indices …

Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) possess significant potential in regenerative medicine, attributed to their inherent capacity for site-specific homing to inflammatory regions, diverse differentiation abilities, and immunomodulatory fu…

INTRODUCTION: Raising the temperature of abdominal wall endometriosis lesions contributes to an effective ablation; however, providing sufficient protection to the surrounding tissues remains a challenge. In this study, we aimed to combine …

ObjectivesTo assess the efficacy of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for patients with chronic pain.Materials and methodsThe research conducted a systematic search of the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO, an…

AimWith unknown etiology and limited treatment options, unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (URPL) remains a thorny problem. Ferroptosis, a newly identified type of cell death, has been shown to be crucial in the development in reproductiv…

BackgroundThe imbalance between the generation and elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is defined as oxidative stress (OS). Elevated levels of OS are implicated in various diseases, especially in gynecological and reproductive diso…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a heritable, complex chronic inflammatory disease, for which much of the causal pathogenic mechanism remain unknown.Despite the high prevalence of ovarian chocolate cyst, its origin is still under debate. MET…

IntroductionCardiac arrest during pregnancy is receiving increasing attention. However, there are few reports on cardiac arrest in nonpregnant women caused by abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). We report a case in which extracorporeal cardiop…
