BACKGROUND: This study systematically investigated phenotypes causally associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) across the phenome and validated the findings at cognitive and neuroimaging levels using real-world clinical data. METHODS: We …

BACKGROUND: Assisted reproductive treatment for women with endometriosis and diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is challenging, and the optimal controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) protocol for this population remains uncertain. This study co…

Maternal depression and anxiety are common perinatal conditions; however, large-scale, nationally representative evidence on their association with a comprehensive range of obstetric and neonatal outcomes remains limited. The study utilized…

Catalpol, an iridoid glycoside predominantly derived from the fresh or dried root tuber of Rehmannia glutinosa Libosch (a member of the Scrophulariaceae family), it is a representative compound with the highest content in Rehmannia glutinos…

Currently available classification criteria for obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome (OAPS) are often overly strict and may miss a considerable number of patients with so-called "non-criteria-defined OAPS". We aimed to establish a diagnostic…

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder in women of reproductive age, often presenting with pelvic pain and infertility. Its progression is closely linked to estrogen levels. While hormonal therapies are effective, long-term …

BACKGROUND: Pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 [inv (9)] is a common chromosomal polymorphism found in approximately 1-2% of the population. While inv(9) has been generally considered a benign variant, its potential effects on reproducti…

Emerging evidence suggests that the gut microbiota plays a crucial role in endometriosis (Endo) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This study aimed to explore gut microbial signatures in women with either or both conditions, compared to …

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…

Endometrial receptivity within the window of implantation (WOI) has been increasingly recognized as an independent determinant of pregnancy outcome in assisted reproduction. Persistent recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is observed in a s…

BACKGROUND: The clinical benefit of immunotherapy in ovarian cancer (OC) remains limited. The primary reason is not simply a lack of immune activation, but rather the marked spatiotemporal heterogeneity of the tumour immune microenvironment…

BACKGROUND: Pelvic floor surface electromyography (sEMG) is widely used to evaluate and treat pelvic floor dysfunctions (PFDs). Based on sEMG, the Glazer protocol was developed over 20 years ago with a limited sample size, making it challen…

Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma (UCEC) represents a common malignant neoplasm in women, with its prognosis being intricately associated with available therapeutic interventions. In the past few decades, there has been a burgeoning inte…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to pain and infertility. Recent studies suggest that antioxidants may play a protective ro…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial thickness (EMT) is a crucial indicator of endometrial receptivity in assisted reproductive technology (ART). However, its relationship with pregnancy outcomes remains unclear, especially across different cycle types …

DISIGN: This is a cross-sectional study. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with body image disturbances in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS: This study included married women diagn…

PURPOSE: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine syndrome that afflicts women of childbearing age, whose specific pathogenesis is unknown. Combined multiomics analysis on it is still lacking. The purpose of this study was to use co…

PURPOSE: In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) has become crucial for infertile couples. Previous studies have suggested that multiple ETs are associated with increased risks of preterm birth and low birth weight. The current …

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is recognized as one of the leading causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) worldwide, representing a rapidly growing global public health concern. Despite significant advance…

BACKGROUND: The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly impacted global health and shares several clinical features with ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the existence of a common pathological mechanism between COVID…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the benefits of menstrual management in women undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), in whom heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) can be an underestimated bleeding complication. METHODS: This was a r…

BACKGROUND: This study investigated the safety and efficacy of hysteroscopic sutureless fixation of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) for treating heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), providing a viable therapeutic optio…

AIM: To investigate the risk factors associated with postpartum urinary retention after cesarean section (CS) and to determine the associated morbidity rate. METHODS: This study was a population-based retrospective case-control study analy…

Retroperitoneal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is an extremely rare tumor originating from the retroperitoneum, with an unclear etiology and origin. Imaging studies are the preferred diagnostic modality for retroperitoneal tumors. The presen…
