BACKGROUND: Diminished ovarian reserve refers to the decrease in the quantity and quality of oocytes in the ovary which may cause poor fertility outcomes even with the help of assisted reproductive techniques. Most patients will undergo mul…
BACKGROUND: The main characteristics of the robotic surgical system include high-definition three-dimensional imaging, flexible and stable instruments, and an ergonomic console design. Incorporating robotic systems with laparoendoscopic sin…
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a prevalent condition among middle‑aged and older women, and is associated with the irregular production and breakdown of the extracellular matrix. Mechanical forces serve a key role in preserving the equilibr…
RATIONALE: Sepsis following hysteroscopy is an rare complication, with current evidence suggesting that routine prophylactic antibiotic administration may not be warranted. However, this does not imply that we should disregard vigilance reg…
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…
Abstract Adenomyosis is a prevalent and non-cancerous uterine disease which can significantly impaired the fertility of reproductive-age women. However, the etiology, as well as the cellular and molecular mechanism underlying adenomyosis re…
INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis is a prevalent gynaecological disorder affecting women of reproductive age, yet the underlying etiology and cellular-molecular mechanisms driving its pathogenesis remain poorly understood. Gonadotropin-releasing ho…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the differences in symptom clusters of adenomyosis (AM) patients across spatial, temporal, and age-stratified dimensions based on the theory of "Treatment in Accordance with Three Categories of Etiolog…
While the blood urea nitrogen/albumin ratio (BAR) is recognized for its prognostic significance in various diseases, its association in acute pancreatitis (AP) remains uncertain. This research seeks to clarify the relationship between BAR a…
The combination of Syto16/7-AAD allows the detection of apoptosis at an earlier stage than that of annexin V/7-AAD. The effects of the earlier apoptosis of spermatozoa on fertilization rate and post-embryonic development have not been inves…
BACKGROUND: Latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is common among patients with infertility, yet its effects on ovarian reserve function and pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) remain u…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition that can result in pelvic pain and infertility, thereby significantly impacting women's reproductive health. Psychological disorders such as anxiety and depression are common in…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is associated with a markedly increased incidence of depression and anxiety, primarily due to cyclic pain, concerns about infertility from impaired ovarian function, and fear of disease recurrence. Surgery an…
The VDR and MTHFR polymorphisms have been linked to many gynecological and obstetrical diseases. However, there is still a pressing need for a systematic review and meta-analysis to synthesize the current evidence on the association between…
Ranking second out of new cancer cases, breast cancer (BRCA) is the leading cause of cancerous death among women globally. Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3), as the well-known N6‑methyladenosine (m6A) "writer" with catalytic function, regul…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the value of mtDNA copy number measurement in spent culture medium of blastocysts for predicting the chance of implantation following single blastocyst transfer (SBT). METHODS: Copy numbers of mtDNA and genomic DNA (gD…
Background: The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has emerged as a promising biomarker for assessing stress-induced hyperglycemia (SH) but has not been evaluated in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). This study investigates the role of t…
Non-obstructive azoospermia, a severe form of male infertility caused by spermatogenic failure (SPGF), has a largely unknown genetic basis across ancestries. To our knowledge, this is the first trans-ethnic meta-analysis of genome-wide asso…
BackgroundTransumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) has been widely used in multiple gynecological fields, but the report on its use during during pregnancy is limited. This study aimed to assess the safety and feasibili…
To investigate the clinical application value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) technology in evaluating blood flow perfusion changes in adenomyosis patients treated with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) combined with leuprorel…
Cervical cancer (CC) is an important public health problem for women, gene expression patterns which were governed by epigenetic modifications can result in CC, CC-chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) interacts with C-C-motif ligand 22 (CCL22) is as…
Abstract Objective To explore factors related to dysmenorrhea in adenomyosis and construct a risk prediction model. Methods A cross-sectional survey involving 1636 adenomyosis patients from 37 hospitals nationwide (November 2019 - Februa…
INTRODUCTION: Anti-sulfatide antibodies are key biomarkers for the diagnosis of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). However, case reports on anti-sulfatide antibody-related GBS are rare, particularly for atypical cases. CASE DESCRIPTION CASE 1:…
OBJECTIVE: While infertility affects about 15% of women during their reproductive years, its long-term impact on stroke mortality after this period remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the association between infertility and stro…
BACKGROUND: Low-dose aspirin is one of the widely used adjuvants in assisted reproductive technologies with the hope of improving the live birth rate. However, the studies regarding its effects are conflicting. The study aimed to investigat…
