Protein kinases, as one of the most important human enzymes, are signaling molecules that regulate almost all cell activities, including growth, cell division and metabolism. Dysfunction of these cellular pathways can lead to a variety of h…

To investigate the efficacy of different pretreatment protocols for women with endometriosis undergoing IVF. We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medline, and Embase from inception to April 30, 2025, to identify randomiz…

PurposePreclinical evidence suggests that metformin may mitigate pelvic organ prolapse (POP) by altering the gene expression of human vaginal fibroblasts in a beneficial direction, but clinical validation is lacking. This study aimed to exp…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the causal relationship between dietary habits and nine common diseases with high female prevalence using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach. METHODS: Drawing upon pooled Genome-Wi…

Reproductive health-related diseases have a significant impact on the well-being of millions of women worldwide, severely compromising their quality of life. Women encounter unique challenges in terms of reproductive health, including gynec…

Incarceration of the gravid uterus (IGU) is a rare and serious condition associated with significant maternal and fetal morbidities. Its occurrence in women with a history of cesarean section (CS) poses a great challenge to obstetricians. W…

Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy is extremely rare but may cause severe hemorrhage, resulting in a high rate of mortality. We report a case of a primigravid woman who complained of middle-upper abdominal pain. She was admitted to our…

BackgroundFibrosis of the connective tissue in the vaginal wall predominates in pelvic organ prolapse (POP), which is characterized by excessive fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation and abnormal deposition of the extracellular matrix…

PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of surgically treated ovarian endometrioma (OMA) in pregnant women. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study analyzed 30 patients with pathologically confirmed ovarian endo…

BACKGROUND: The NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is crucial for innate immunity. However, its uncontrolled and dysregulated activation may cause various inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. Therefore, tight…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the utility of clinical and MRI features in distinguishing ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) from adnexal masses with ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system (O-RADS) MRI scores of 4-5. METHODS: This retrospective s…

Ovarian cancer (OC) represents the most prevalent malignancy of the female reproductive system. Its distinguishing features include a high aggressiveness, substantial morbidity and mortality, and a lack of apparent symptoms, which collectiv…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether intrauterine chilled saline can reduce endometrial impairment during US-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) of adenomyosis. METHODS: An open-label, randomized trial was conducted with sixty sympt…

This study aimed to develop a model based on radiomics and deep learning features to predict the ablation rate in patients with adenomyosis undergoing high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy. A total of 119 patients with adenomyosi…

Ovarian, endometrial, and cervical cancer are common gynecologic malignancies, and their incidence is increasing year after year, with a younger patient population at risk. An exosome is a tiny "teacup-like" blister that can be secreted by …

BACKGROUND Understanding the blood supply pattern of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) can effectively help to determine the best choice of treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the blood supply pattern and outcomes of patients wi…

Gut microbiota and its metabolites are related to the female reproductive system. Animal experiments have demonstrated the relationship between gut microbiota-derived short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and embryo quality. However, few studies …

This study aimed to assess the effects of GH adjuvant therapy on the cumulative live birth rate in patients with poor embryo quality and to determine the characteristics of patients who are more responsive to GH. A retrospective cohort stud…

Infertility is defined as failure to achieve pregnancy within 12 months of unprotected intercourse in women. Trace elements, a kind of micronutrient that is very important to female reproductive function, are affected by intestinal absorpti…

IntroductionPatients with pulmonary sequestration (PS), a rare congenital lung malformation, are mostly asymptomatic. Recurrent localized infection is a major complication, while sudden hemothorax is extremely rare. We present a case of int…

To examine the possible miRNA molecular regulatory mechanisms during maternal uterine involution after delivery, we selected ovary and uterus tissues that are structurally connected as experimental materials. We employed Illumina HiSeq sequ…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age, which is characterized by ovulatory dysfunction, clinical and/or biochemical androgen excess, polycystic ovaries on ultrasound and …

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) encodes vital proteins and RNAs for the normal functioning of the mitochondria. Mutations in mtDNA leading to mitochondrial dysfunction are relevant to a large spectrum of diseases, including fertility disorders. S…

BackgroundGenetic factors may play an important role in susceptibility to recurrent miscarriage. Some cardiovascular disease-related candidate genes have been shown to be associated with recurrent miscarriage. Long noncoding RNA ANRIL has b…
