BACKGROUND: Smoking and alcohol consumption have been consistently associated with adverse female reproductive outcomes; however, whether these associations reflect causal effects or are mediated by specific circulating metabolites remains …
Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a rare gynecologic malignancy primarily arising in the uterine corpus and ovaries. It shares remarkable similarities in its histomorphology, immunophenotype, and molecular features with mesonephric a…
Ovarian cancer was the eighth most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in 2022. The global age-standardized incidence rate of ovarian cancer decreased from 7.22/100,000 to 6.71/100,000 from 1990 to 2021. However, incidence trends varied…
BACKGROUND: Uterine broad ligament fibroids present unique surgical challenges due to their proximity to vital pelvic structures. This study aimed to evaluate artificial intelligence (AI)-guided MRI instance segmentation for optimizing lapa…
Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a subtype of ovarian cancer with a poor prognosis that often shows resistance to chemotherapy. This study retrospectively analyzed 247 patients with OCCC who were admitted to the Cancer Hospital of the…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is currently considered a chronic disease for which long-term medical treatment is needed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of dydrogesterone in Chinese women with endometrios…
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…
Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disease accompanied by metabolic disturbances. However, the causality between metabolites and the risk of EMs remains unclear. We conducted a 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using…
Uterine myomas are the most common pelvic tumors in women, which can lead to abnormal uterine bleeding, abdominal pain, pelvic compression symptoms, infertility, or adverse pregnancy. In this article, we provide a dataset named uterine myom…
The impaired endometrial receptivity is a major factor contributing to infertility in patients with endometriosis (EM), but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the role of Kruppel-like factor 15 (KLF15) …
BACKGROUND: Ferroptosis, a recently discovered iron-dependent cell death, is linked to various diseases but its role in endometriosis is still not fully understood. METHODS: In this study, we integrated microarray data of endometriosis fro…
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…
P: pelvic pain associated with EMs; I: acupuncture; C: non-penetrating needles; O: reduce the pain level.Condition being studied: The usage of acupuncture for pelvic pain caused by endometriosis is common, although studies have not been con…
BACKGROUND: ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) leads to a reduced male-to-female ratio at birth, whereas blastocyst transfer results in an increased male-to-female ratio. However, limited knowledge exists regarding the impact of these …
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…
Exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease, and hyperglycemia serves an important role in the development of atherosclerosis. The present study aimed to investigate th…
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: Recurrence of postoperative adhesions is one of the most important factors for poor reproductive outcomes after hysteroscopic surgery, particularly in cases diagnosed with severe intrauterine adhesions (IUAs), where the recurren…
OBJECTIVE: Ovarian cancer (OC) is an intractable gynecological tumor, and frequent recurrence is experienced within a few years even after the complete eradication of tumor tissues by radical resection and neo-adjuvant chemotherapies. The c…
Estrogen therapy is widely used as a supplementary treatment after hysteroscopy for female infertility patients owing to its protective function that improves endometrial regeneration and menstruation, inhibits recurrent adhesions, and impr…
BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer is a frequent, common cancer in women, and causes high cancer-related deaths among women in our world. Accumulating studies provided an important evidence for long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) polymorphisms in the susc…
Object: Is it possible to use different progestins cotreatment with human menopausal gonadotrophin (hMG) in women with advanced endometriosis but normal ovulation during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) in vitro fertilization (IVF)…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Macrophage infiltration and activation is a critical step during acute pancreatitis (AP). We have shown that pancreas-specific D2 receptor signalling protects against AP severity. As it is unclear to what extent myel…
Background: Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F can cause adverse effects (AEs) in clinical application and may be harmful to human health. This study aim to summarize the AEs caused by T. wilfordii tgpolyglycoside (TWP), the most common preparat…
BACKGROUND: Disordered inflammation and immune response is an acknowledged risk factor for cervical cancer development. Interleukin-1 receptor type 2 (IL1R2) is a decoy receptor for IL-1 cytokines and involved in host inflammatory and immun…
