Objective: Endometriosis (EM) and uterine leiomyoma (UL) are common gynecological disorders with substantial clinical overlap; however, their shared epidemiological and genetic underpinnings remain poorly understood. This study investigated…

OBJECTIVE: Bromocriptine has emerged as a potential treatment for adenomyosis. This study aimed to identify genes associated with Bromocriptine sensitivity and explore the biological processes and cell-type-specific expression patterns invo…

BACKGROUND: Pelvic floor surface electromyography (sEMG) is widely used to evaluate and treat pelvic floor dysfunctions (PFDs). Based on sEMG, the Glazer protocol was developed over 20 years ago with a limited sample size, making it challen…

Abstract Objective: Previous observational research has indicated an association between plasma selectin family members and endometriosis, and our objective was to investigate the causal association between selectins and endometriosis. Met…

PURPOSE: Decreased ovarian reserve function is mainly characterized by female endocrine disorders and fertility decline. Follicular fluid (FF) exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to regulate the function of granulosa cells (GCs). Th…

BACKGROUND: Myofascial pelvic pain (MFPP), which is identified by tender points in the pelvic floor musculature, is a prevalent source of chronic pelvic pain in women. It may lead to physical and mental exhaustion, reproductive concerns, an…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine the efficacy of HRT with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) pre-treatment in women with male-factor infertility who underwent a frozen embryo transfer (FET) programme. DESIGN: Between Jan…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the reproductive outcomes of oocytes with smooth endoplasmic reticulum aggregates (SERa) are impaired. METHODS: A total of 2893 intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles were performed between January…

Labial minora fusion persisting to the reproductive age is a rare type of labial fusion. Only 17 sporadic case-reports have been published to describe this disease. We report a retrospective cohort study of nine patients undergone surgical …

BACKGROUND: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects around 15% of postmenopausal women in China. Although it has been widely accepted that genetic variants could confer risk for POP, the genetic susceptibility variants remain largely unknown. P…

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common gynecological disorder; however, the genetic components remain largely unidentified. Exome sequencing has been widely used to identify pathogenic gene mutations of several diseases because of its high…
