IntroductionDiminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is known to reduce the likelihood of achieving pregnancy or live births in women undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Acupuncture maybe effective for DOR, but current e…

BACKGROUND Postoperative sleep disturbances are common after gynecological laparoscopic surgery, possibly delaying recovery. This study evaluated whether additional postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride nasal spray c…

BackgroundIn this study, we aimed to explore the effect of the timing of surgical management of hydrosalpinx on in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic single-sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) pregnancy outcomes in patients with tubal factor infer…

ObjectiveWe aimed to investigate the effect of seasons on embryo quality and pregnancy outcomes among infertile patients undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET)-assisted pregnancy.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed data f…

Patients with endometriosis have greater risk of infertility, which is associated with compromised ovarian function. Dysfunction in follicular granulosa cells and hyperactivation of oestrogen receptor beta (ERβ) are evident in endometriosis…

Adult endometrial glands undergo cyclic regeneration and development during the menstrual cycle. Their secretions are vital for endometrial functions and early pregnancy, yet the mechanisms controlling gland development are not well underst…

Ovarian cancer poses a significant clinical challenge due to its asymptomatic onset and poor prognosis, highlighting the critical need for effective early detection strategies. This study developed a framework that integrates serum proteomi…

BackgroundSyndrome differentiation in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is pivotal to clinical practice and dictates the efficacy of medicinal treatments. However, precision diagnostic models for TCM syndromes, constructed from biomarkers …

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants with potential reproductive toxicity, yet their profiles in follicular fluid and impacts on human fertility remain unclear. Given the importance of diet as…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is one of the most common gynecologic diseases, and the roles of ferroptosis in EMs have not been fully clarified. The induction of ferroptosis has been demonstrated to inhibit the growth of ectopic lesions i…

The growing diversity of anthropogenic chemicals in the environment far exceeds the scope of routine analytical monitoring. Non-target screening (NTS) using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) has thus emerged to discover unknown organ…

BACKGROUND: The gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) ratio (GGT/HDL) has recently emerged as a potential biomarker for metabolic and liver diseases. This study aimed to investigate the association between GGT/H…

BackgroundDysmenorrhea impacts 45% to 95% of women of childbearing age globally. Research on the neuro-immune-endocrine regulatory network has grown by 22.3% annually over the past decade, yet the field faces challenges including fragmented…

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to explore shared genetic architectures and potential causal associations between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and gynecological diseases, including ovarian cysts (OC), pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and endometr…

Background and objectiveIleal ureter replacement (IUR) is the definitive management approach for extensive ureteral strictures (UrSs). Patients with UrS exhibit poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We conducted a long-term, multi-in…

Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent disorder affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age, and the absence of reliable noninvasive diagnostic tools contributes to delayed diagnosis and disease progression. To identify potentia…

BackgroundLow-level sex chromosome mosaicism (SCM; abnormal cell proportion <10%) is frequently detected during preconception karyotype screening, yet its clinical relevance in assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains controversial. T…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder that can involve the intestinal tract and may present with bleeding, bowel obstruction, and, rarely, perforation or malignant transformation. Intestinal endometriosis can mimic malignant tumo…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) often induce menopausal symptoms, negatively affecting women's psychological, emotional, and physical health. Kuntai capsule is widely used in clinical practic…

Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, a renowned medicinal herb, exerts many of its systemic effects through intricate interactions with the gut microbiota, a relationship that also addresses the challenge of its own limited oral bioavailability. This …

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 5 Group A Member 1 (NR5A1, encoding SF-1) hypomethylation in endometriosis (EMs) and to evaluate the effects of Luoshi Neiyi Prescription (LSNYP…

Teverelix is a short non-natural peptide, which is a gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist and used as a treatment for prostate cancer. Teverelix is formulated as a trifluoroacetic acid salt, which, at the high concentrations used for p…

Metabolism-regulating microspheres have evolved from conventional drug carriers into active platforms capable of spatiotemporally reprogramming pathological metabolic networks. Chronic diseases are increasingly understood to be driven by me…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is characterized by pain symptoms that seriously affect patients' quality of life. Gut microbiome-related metabolites (GMRM) play an important role in the process of EMS. However, the role of GMRM in endometr…
