Perioperative abstinent smokers experience heightened pain sensitivity and increased postoperative analgesic requirements, likely due to nicotine withdrawal-induced hyperalgesia. However, the underlying neural mechanisms in humans remain un…

BACKGROUND: The relationship between endometriosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the association between endometriosis and CVD risk, to examine whether the association was affected by ag…

BACKGROUND: Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) is a non-invasive therapy that combines low-frequency neurostimulation with the application of acupoints. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of TEAS for post-oper…

Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age worldwide. It is a lead…

Cytoreductive surgery is the treatment protocol for colorectal cancer. Nonetheless, a major medical challenge remains to fully eliminate malignant tumor cells, along with a number of complications such as peritoneal adhesion and tumor perit…

BACKGROUND: Chronic endometritis (CE), characterized by CD138+ plasma cell infiltration, has been proposed to impair reproductive outcomes in assisted reproductive technology (ART). However, current evidence remains inconsistent, and diagno…

INTRODUCTION: Graves' disease (GD) is a classical autoimmune disorder caused by interactions between genetic susceptibility and immune dysregulation. However, the transcriptomic mechanisms underlying disease relapse and remission, particula…

OBJECTIVE: Several endometrial preparation protocols are available in frozen-thawed embryo (FET) transfer cycles. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes, obstetrical and neonatal complications between ovulation disorder …

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) have fundamentally changed the treatment paradigm for patients with ovarian cancer, especially in tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). However, acqu…

INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary endometriosis (PE) is an unusual cause of catamenial hemoptysis, with only a small proportion of endometriosis cases involving the thorax. Standard management often involves surgical resection combined with hormonal …

Oral delivery of protein and peptide therapeutics (PPs) offers a non-invasive, patient-friendly alternative to parenteral administration, yet faces multiple formidable barriers due to the complex gastrointestinal (GI) environment. This revi…

Introduction: Pulmonary endometriosis (PE) is an unusual cause of catamenial hemoptysis, with only a small proportion of endometriosis cases involving the thorax. Standard management often involves surgical resection combined with hormonal …

Surgery continues to be a mainstay of treatment for patients with symptomatic fibroids. Hysterectomy is an option for those desiring definitive treatment and myomectomy is preferred for those that have not yet completed childbearing or wish…

OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound imaging of the endometrium is often affected by speckle noise, low contrast, and physiological cycle variations, which lead to blurred boundaries and ambiguous structural representation. To address these challenges, th…

BACKGROUND: Limited information is available on malpractice claims against obstetricians and gynecologists in China. This study identifies risk factors associated with malpractice and explores the correlation between the hospital characteri…

OBJECTIVE: To identify risk factors influencing clinical pregnancy outcomes in infertile men undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (lCSl) and to establish and validate a nomogram prediction model. METHODS: A total of 1,037 infertile …

BACKGROUND: Ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors (OSCSTs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of ovarian neoplasms, encompassing various subtypes such as ovarian thecoma, fibroma (including cellular fibroma), and ovarian granulosa cell tumors (OG…

The ovary is a crucial gonadal organ that supports female reproductive and endocrine functions. Ovarian aging can result in decreased fertility and dysfunction across multiple organs. Research has demonstrated that cellular senescence in va…

PURPOSE: The global prevalence and trends of gynecological diseases (GDs) among women of childbearing age (WCBA) remain unclear and may be underestimated. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of GDs at global, regional, and national l…

BACKGROUND: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist and long-acting GnRH agonist regimens are commonly employed for ovarian stimulation in women undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), but t…

BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the female reproductive system. The oxidative balance score (OBS) is a new measure for assessing the balance between antioxidant and pro-oxidative factors in diet and lifestyle. However, …

Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic disease that can cause pain and infertility in patients. As is well known, immune cell infiltrations (ICIs) play important roles in the pathogenesis of EM. However, the pathogenesis and biomarkers of EM that …

Inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune, infectious, and metabolic disorders, remain major global health challenges due to their complex pathogenesis and limited therapeutic options. In recent years, bioinspired nanotechnology has emerg…
