Subunits of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex are altered in ∼20% of human cancers. Exemplifying the alterations is the ARID1A mutation that occurs in ∼50% of ovarian clear-cell carcinoma (OCCC), a disease with limited therapeutic op…

BackgroundRudimentary horn pregnancy (RHP) is a special type of ectopic pregnancy and its pathophysiological basis is an abnormal fusion of the bilateral accessory mesonephric duct during the embryonic period. If sonographers lack experienc…

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a diverse form of female infertility characterized by a decline in ovarian function before the age of 40. Melatonin (MT) is a potential clinical treatment for restoring or safeguarding ovarian functi…

In this retrospective study conducted at Sichuan Jinxin Xinan Women and Children's Hospital spanning January 2015 to December 2021, our objective was to investigate the impact of embryo cryopreservation duration on outcomes in frozen embryo…
