Precise regulation of alternative splicing (AS) of maternal mRNAs is crucial for maintaining mRNA homeostasis and for acquiring oocyte competence. However, the regulatory factors and mechanisms of AS regulating oocyte competence and human f…

OBJECTIVE: This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate whether a goal-directed weight loss intervention prior to assisted reproductive technology (ART) improves live birth rates compared with immediate in vitro fertilization (IVF) wit…

Oocyte/embryo defects can result in oocyte maturation arrest, fertilization failure, embryonic arrest, and infertility as well as recurrent in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) failures. However, the genet…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is a common chronic gynecological disorder that increases the risk of ovarian cancer by approximately threefold. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. METHODS: Mendelia…

OBJECTIVE: To compare single versus double autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) intrauterine infusion effects on endometrial receptivity and pregnancy outcomes in patients with thin endometrium. METHODS: This randomized controlled trial i…

PURPOSE: To investigate the impact of first-trimester COVID-19 infection on the perinatal and obstetric outcomes following in vitro fertilization-frozen embryo transfer. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted at a university-affil…

OBJECTIVE: Effective early diagnosis and timely intervention in acute pancreatitis (AP) are essential for improving patient outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the clinical utility of the neutrophil CD64 index (nCD64) in stratifying patie…

OBJECTIVE: To study if the transfer of warmed blastocysts without blastocoele re-expansion is effective and safe. METHODS: Three thousand one hundred ninety-six frozen-thawed single blastocyst transfer cycles were conducted. The embryos we…

INTRODUCTION: Although the effectiveness of pentoxifylline (PF) as a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase to enhance sperm motility through increasing cyclic nucleotide in cases of absolute asthenozoospermia has been demonstrated for IC…

Abstract Background Endometriosis is one of the most common gynaecological diseases, yet it lacks efficient biomarkers for early detection and unravels disease mechanisms. Proteomic profiling has revealed diverse patterns of protein changes…

BACKGROUND: In vitro fertilization-conceived babies, even singletons, are at a higher risk of poor birth outcomes such as low birthweight and preterm birth than naturally conceived counterparts. It remains unclear as to what extent these ad…

Current medical treatments for endometriosis-associated pain (EAP) have limitations, including symptom recurrence and hormonal side effects. For this reason, it is important to elucidate any alternative or complementary treatments available…

This study aimed to investigate the metabolite profile and inflammatory state of follicular fluid (FF) in women with stage III-IV ovarian endometriosis (OE) who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF). A cohort of 20 consecutive patients wit…

BACKGROUND: 0PN zygotes have a low cleavage rate, and the clinical outcomes of cleavage-stage embryo transfers are unsatisfactory. Blastocyst culturing is used to screen 0PN embryos, but whether the cell number of 0PN embryos on day 3 affec…

BACKGROUND: Health behaviours in the preconception period have the potential to impact on fertility and pregnancy outcomes, and the health of all women regardless of pregnancy intention. Public awareness of this is low and interventions tha…

BACKGROUND: Hydrosalpinx has a negative effect on the pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET), and the pretreatment for hydrosalpinx play an important role in improving the outcomes of IVF-ET. This study ai…
