Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted from biological cells and contain many molecules with diagnostic values or therapeutic functions. There has been great interest in academic and industrial communities to utilize EVs as tools for dia…

BackgroundAcupuncture and moxibustion, as traditional therapies in Chinese medicine, are widely recognized for their therapeutic effects, particularly in pain relief. Nevertheless, the exact mechanisms underlying their analgesic effects rem…

PurposeTo investigate the applicability and safety of the blastocyst grading system for borderline blastocysts assessed by measurement of the inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE) parameters.MethodsA total of 361 borderline blastocys…

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether blastocysts that do not re-expand 2–4 h after thawing were of value for utilization and to analyze the relevant factors affecting clinical pregnancy in completely shrunken blastocyst transfer (C…

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is identified as a severe chronic immune-related disorder in pancreas, including two subtypes. In this study, pancreatic lesions in patients diagnosed as either type 1 AIP or type 2 AIP are examined, and these …

We evaluated the impact of adenomyosis and ovarian endometriosis on ovarian reserve function through transvaginal three-dimensional ultrasound and anti-mullerian hormone testing. A total of 150 female patients who were admitted to our hospi…

Endometriosis is increasingly affecting women worldwide and research is focusing on identifying key targets in its pathogenesis. Changes in succinylation genes regulate the function of this protein and further influence the development of t…

BackgroundAdiposity profoundly impacts reproductive health in both humans and animals. However, the precise subpopulations contributing to infertility under obese conditions remain elusive.ResultsIn this study, we established an obese mouse…

PurposeSpecular reflections (SRs) are highlight artifacts commonly found in endoscopy videos that can severely disrupt a surgeon's observation and judgment. Despite numerous attempts to restore SR, existing methods are inefficient and time …

Enteropeptidase (EP) initiates intestinal digestion by proteolytically processing trypsinogen, generating catalytically active trypsin. EP dysfunction causes a series of pancreatic diseases including acute necrotizing pancreatitis. However,…

The well-prepared endometrium with appropriate thickness plays a critical role in successful embryo implantation. The thin endometrium is the main factor of frozen-embryo transfer (FET), resulting in the failure of implantation undergoing F…

Endometriosis is widely associated with infertility in women of childbearing age, for which there have been no effective treatments. Recent studies suggest that the dysregulation of RNAs contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis, so …

The female inflorescences of hops (Humulus lupulus L.), a well-known bittering agent used in the brewing industry, have long been used in traditional medicines. Xanthohumol (XN) is one of the bioactive substances contributing to its medical…

BackgroundLeucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein (LRG1) was found to be differentially expressed in sera from patients with Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC). The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of LRG1 for detection of EOC, in…

The philosophy and practice of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) have been evolving for thousands of years in China, Japan and other Asian countries. TCM is now generating popular interest worldwide for reproductive health care and disease…

Uterine prolapse is a benign and common condition, especially in older women. In this study, we investigated the frequency and implications of incidental findings in uteri removed for prolapse. We found a high frequency of incidental findin…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the cytokin production of T helper cell (Th) 1, Th2 subsets in patients with endometriosis(EM). METHODS: The cytokine production of Th1, Th2 cells expressed by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) …

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether hormone replacement therapy (HRT) plus goserelin (Zoladex) is as effective as goserelin alone for the relief of pelvic symptoms of endometriosis and to determine whether it reduces both the loss of bone miner…

ObjectiveTo determine whether women of reproductive age with endometriosis are osteopenic and whether bone density decreases with higher stages of endometriosis.DesignA multicenter cross-sectional study was performed.SettingThirty-nine gyne…
