IntroductionThe clinical impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on human reproduction remains controversial. This prospective cohort study aimed to assess the effect of prior female SARS-CoV-2 infection on subsequent in vitro fertilization (IVF) ou…

BackgroundThe factors affecting the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) of PCOS (Polycystic ovary syndrom) patients who received in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET) needs more research for a b…

PurposeTo explore the impact of inactivated COVID-19 vaccination on ovarian reserve as assessed by serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentration.MethodsA total of 3160 women were included in this single-center retrospective cohort study …

Disruption of iron homeostasis plays a negative role in follicle development. The dynamic changes in follicle growth are dependent on Hippo/YAP signaling and mechanical forces. However, little is known about the liaison between iron overloa…

BackgroundThe basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)/luteinizing hormone (LH) ratio is a useful predictor of ovarian response. In this study, we investigated whether the FSH/LH ratios during the entire controlled ovarian stimulation (COS)…

BackgroundPhysicians need an appropriate embryo transfer strategy to address the challenge of reducing multiple birth rates, while maintaining the couples' live birth rate during assisted reproductive technology.MethodsWe included 10,060 fr…

ObjectiveTo investigate the predictors of residual disease in a hysterectomy following a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 3.MethodsThis retrospective study identified 421 patients w…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of the long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) administration before hormone replacement treatment for frozen-thawed embryo transfer in women with different times of embryo implantation …

BackgroundUnsubstantiated concerns have been raised on the potential correlation between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination and infertility, leading to vaccine hesitancy in reproductive-aged population.…

PurposeTo study the relationship between blastomere number and pregnancy outcomes of day 3 embryo transfers.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 2237 fresh single day 3 embryo transfer cycles from October 2013 to November 2020. P…

PurposeTo investigate the impact of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccination on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes.Patients and methodsThis retrospective cohort study included 2185 patients undergoing fresh IVF cycles from June 1st to Septembe…

BackgroundThis large-cohort, retrospective study investigates the relationship between the number of oocytes retrieved and the clinical outcomes for patients receiving the GnRH-a prolonged protocol (mGnRH-a protocol) for fertilization in vi…

IntroductionLow molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) plays a role in repeated implantation failure (RIF), but outcomes are controversial. LMWH can potentially modulate local immune responses associated with the establishment and maintenance of p…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 8-13% of reproductive-age females worldwide and mutations or aberrant expression of androgen receptor (AR) may cause the onset of this disease. In the present study, 258 samples from Han Chinese pati…

BackgroundThe mechanism of recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is unclear at present and poor endometrial receptivity may be one of the leading reasons. This study aims to construct a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network and identify p…

PurposeTo evaluate the association of endometrial thickness (EMT) with obstetric and neonatal outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).MethodsA total of 1755 subfertile PCOS women with singleton livebirths after frozen-thawed…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficiency and validity of cessation of cetrorelix on trigger day during gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant)-controlled ovarian stimulation of in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles.MethodsIn this retr…

IntroductionPostpartum hemorrhage is a serious complication of childbirth and is still the leading cause of maternal death worldwide. Lower uterine segment hemorrhage during cesarean section is an important cause of postpartum hemorrhage. O…

BackgroundGranulosa cells (GCs) in cumulus oophorus highly express follicle stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR), which is the most important mediator of both estradiol synthesis and oocyte maturation. Obese women have elevated free fatty ac…

ObjectiveNear-infrared fluorescence cholangiography (NIRF-C) can help to identify the bile duct during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This retrospective study was performed to investigate the effect of NIRF-C in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.…

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is associated with elevated plasma levels of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and we have demonstrated reduced acinar cell autophagy in human CP tissue. Therefore, we investigated the role of autophagy in experim…

Embryos with low morphological scores can still develop to the blastocyst stage and result in good clinical outcomes. However, no studies have reported the possible effects of transferring cryopreserved blastocysts developed from poor-quali…

BackgroundTo assess the ability of preoperative positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scans to predict postoperative residual disease in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC).MethodsThirty-one women with suspected AE…

Nerve growth factor (NGF) has been verified to be expressed with higher level in adenomyosis uteri, and its neutralizing antibody has a strong inhibitory influence on inflammation. The present study aimed to explore the effect of anti-NGF o…
