BACKGROUND: Deep infiltrating endometriosis is a subtype of endometriosis. A case of retroperitoneal endometriosis surrounding the ureter and forming a pelvic mass is relatively rare. CASE PRESENTATION: A 26-year-old woman was admitted to …
This retrospective cohort study evaluated whether gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) used for luteal support during antagonist cycles improved pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing fresh embryo transfer. We examined 3,115 p…
Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) represents a rare and aggressive subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer with distinctive clinical and molecular characteristics. However, the identification, origin, and molecular features of the malignant …
BACKGROUND: Some factors that influence the medical abortion(MA) process are unknown. This study aims to investigate the influential factors associated with abortion time, bleeding volume, pain scores, and anxiety during the process of MA. …
Cuproptosis is a kind of programmed cell death in which copper reacts with the cycloaliphatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. In this study, we devised a predictive model and a theoretical framework to examine the variation…
BACKGROUND: Uterine prolapse (UP), a subtype of pelvic organ prolapse (POP), frequently coexists with urinary tract infections (UTIs) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), including urinary frequency (UF), urinary incontinence (UI), and …
This study investigates the role of paraneoplastic Ma antigen 5 (PNMA 5), a member of the PNMA family of proteins, in ovarian endometriosis (EM). These proteins are known to play a significant role in various physiological activities and ar…
BACKGROUND: Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a high-risk ectopic pregnancy, and the influence of surgical treatments on subsequent fertility and pregnancy outcomes remains poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the impact of dif…
BACKGROUND: As women age, their ovarian follicle pool naturally declines. However, female germline stem cells (FGSCs) possess a unique ability to differentiate into oocytes and continuously self-renew, providing an effective means of delayi…
BACKGROUND: Pelvic abscesses represent acute gynecological emergencies requiring timely intervention. This study evaluated prognostic predictors and treatment modalities in patients with pelvic abscesses. METHODS: We conducted a retrospect…
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…
BACKGROUND: In hormone replacement therapy-frozen-thawed embryo transfer (HRT-FET) cycles, endogenous LH levels may still rise, and the relationship between this and pregnancy outcomes is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigat…
Endometriosis and Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF) are both pivotal clinical issues within the realm of reproductive medicine, sharing significant overlap in their pathophysiological mechanisms. However, research exploring the commonali…
In β‑thalassemia, excessive α‑globin chain impedes the normal development of red blood cells resulting in anemia. Numerous miRNAs, including miR‑6747‑3p, are aberrantly expressed in β‑thalassemia major (β‑TM), but there are no reports on th…
BACKGROUND: Glycolysis, a classic characteristic of cancer cells, can drive cancer progression by generating lactate, which play as a key immunosuppressive mediator. Currently, ubiquitin-specific proteases 5 (USP5) has been demonstrated to …
Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) was characterized by endometrial fibrosis, leading primarily to hypomenorrhea, infertility and recurrent miscarriage. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is now recognized as a key factor in the development o…
BACKGROUND: Uterine leiomyosarcoma(uLMS) is a rare malignant tumor with low clinical specificity and poor prognosis.There are many studies related to uLMS, however, there is still a lack of metrological analyses with generalization. This st…
RATIONALE: Endometrial stromal sarcoma is an extremely rare mesenchymal neoplasm occurring in the extrauterine. Retroperitoneal endometrial stromal sarcoma with multiple pulmonary metastases, in particular, is extremely rare. PATIENT CONCE…
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a frequently occurring gynecological disorder mainly caused by the inflammation of a woman's upper genital tract. Generally, antibiotics are used for treating PID, but pro…
Round ligament varicosities (RLV) are a very rare cause of an inguinal mass, which is very similar to an inguinal hernia, and should be taken seriously by women, especially in mid-pregnancy. Ultrasound can confirm the diagnosis of the RLV a…
Abstract Endometriosis is an inflammation-associated disease, primarily but not always associated with abnormal immune system function and expression of immune factors. The microbiota of the female reproductive tract, including the vagina …
INTRODUCTION: Hysterectomy is the most common surgical procedure in the field of gynaecology. The traditional multiport laparoscopy, transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) and transvaginal natural orifice transluminal…
Observational studies have previously reported an association between depression and certain female reproductive disorders. However, the causal relationships between depression and different types of female reproductive disorders remain unc…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is acknowledged as a risk factor for the development of endometrial cancer (EC), although the precise molecular mechanisms that underpin this association have yet to be fully elucidated. The primary objective…
