BACKGROUND: Female reproductive system diseases, including malignant tumors such as breast, ovarian, and uterine cancers, and non-neoplastic disorders such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), infertility, a…
Ovarian senescence is accompanied by inflammatory responses, yet the underlying mechanism remains incompletely elucidated. In this study, transcriptome sequencing was performed on ovarian granulosa cells from advanced-age patients and norma…
Obesity triggers ovarian dysfunction and female infertility accompanied by granulosa cell damage. Ferroptosis, iron-dependent lipid peroxidation-mediated cell death, participates in multiple reproductive diseases, yet the molecular cascade …
Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), the most prevalent plasticizer worldwide, can enter the human body via various exposure pathways, including ingestion, inhalation, skin contact, and medical applications. It has been observed to exhibit ch…
BACKGROUND: Zona pellucida (ZP) plays an important role in oocyte development and fertilisation, as well as in early embryo development. However, there is currently no exploration of systematic categorising and clinical treatment measures f…
Some patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) suffered from metabolic syndrome (MetS) including dyslipidemia, hyperinsulinism, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Although C-terminal Binding Protein 1 (CTBP1) is a transcription…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is it possible to predict blastocyst quality, embryo chromosomal ploidy, and clinical pregnancy outcome after single embryo transfer from embryo developmental morphokinetic parameters? DESIGN: The morphokinetic parameter…
BACKGROUND: Follicular development in mammalian ovaries is a complex and dynamic process, and the interactions and regulatory-feedback loop between the follicular microenvironment, granulosa cells (GCs), and oocytes can affect follicular de…
BACKGROUND: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has tremendous advantages for resolving the problem of male infertility. However, ICSI fertilization can fail in some patients because of various reasons, primarily because of the failure …
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1 (ADAMTS1) is an extracellular matrix metalloproteinase that plays an important role in the process of ovulation. According to previous studies, the expression level of ADAMTS1…
OBJECTIVE: To develop and evaluate a T2 MR-based radiomics prediction model incorporating radiomics features and clinical parameters to predict the response to magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) in patients with a…
We report in this pilot study the diagnostic results of in vivo imaging of patients with ovarian lesions, using a co-registered photoacoustic and ultrasound (PAT/US) system. A total of 39 ovaries from 24 patients were imaged in vivo. PAT fu…
BACKGROUND: This study aims to assess the impact of ultrasound diagnosis in patients with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). METHODS: We will carry out a comprehensive electronic search from the databases below: PUBMED, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, P…
