Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by progressive fibrosis, which is closely associated with clinical symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and infertility. While myofibroblast activation is central to fibrogenesis, the…

The present study aimed to explore whether there is an association between the transfer of frozen thawed embryos (FET) obtained during SARS-CoV-2 infection and an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. We performed a case-control coh…

BACKGROUND: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used to alleviate pain associated with endometriosis (EMS), yet the impact of their long-term use on disease progression remains unclear. This study investigates the du…

BACKGROUND: Latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is common among patients with infertility, yet its effects on ovarian reserve function and pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) remain u…

UNLABELLED: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by pelvic pain and infertility, with oxidative stress playing a key role in its pathogenesis. Although antioxidant supplementation has been proposed as a potential ad…

BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic single-site hysterectomy is popular among patients and surgeons due to good cosmetic outcomes and fast recovery. However, questions remain such as loss of triangulation and instrument collision. Our…

Abstract Background :To analyze the prevalence and burden of disease (Disability-Adjusted Life Years) of endometriosis in 204 countries and regions from 1990 to 2021, and evaluate its global trends, regional differences and association …

Cilia in the fallopian tubes (CFT) play an important role in female infertility, but have not been explored comprehensively. This review reveals the detection techniques for CFT function and morphology, and the related analysis of female in…

BACKGROUND: Hysteroscopy is a common procedure in assisted reproductive technology (ART) and serves as the gold standard for diagnosing and treating uterine cavity lesions. However, there is currently a lack of research on the impact of ope…

BACKGROUND: Delayed childbearing has become an increasingly prevalent trend, influenced by various psychological and social factors. This study aimed to explore the impact of these factors on the timing of childbirth among women of reproduc…

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to assess the trade-off between cycle continuation and cancellation in slow ovarian response (SOR) patients, and to evaluate the impact of SOR on embryo developmental potential and clinical pregna…

BACKGROUND: Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a leading cause of low back pain, often linked to inflammation and pyroptosis in nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. The role of Periostin (POSTN) in IDD remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: This study…

OBJECTIVE: This retrospective study investigated the prognostic significance and risk factors of benign pathologic types of background endometrium surrounding endometrial polyps (EPs). METHODS: We assessed 206 patients who underwent hyster…

OBJECTIVE: This meta-analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic efficacy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection of rectosigmoid deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: A thorough system…

Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) possess significant potential in regenerative medicine, attributed to their inherent capacity for site-specific homing to inflammatory regions, diverse differentiation abilities, and immunomodulatory fu…

BACKGROUND: High rates of infertility and pregnancy complications in patients with intrauterine adhesion (IUA) even after surgical repair may be associated with poor endometrial receptivity (ER). In our previous study, we found that changes…

The DNA repair enzyme 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) plays a crucial role in the initiation of DNA base excision repair pathway by recognizing and excising the oxidative base lesions including 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). Beyon…

Endometriosis, the most prevalent cause of infertility, is associated with anatomical distortion leading to adhesions and fibrosis, as well as endocrine abnormalities and immune disorders. This review discusses the mechanisms underlying end…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common reproductive endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age and is characterized by a chronic state of excessive inflammation. Increased expression of WNT5A in a varie…

Urinary bladder paragangliomas (UBPs) are rare tumors of chromaffin tissue originating from the sympathetic innervation of the bladder wall. It constitutes less than 0.05% of bladder tumors and 0.7% of all paragangliomas. The occurrence of …

Advanced maternal age (AMA, ≥35 years) women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) face reduced live birth rates (LBR) and remain a major clinical challenge. In a large randomized trial, Zishen Yutai Pill (ZYP) improved LBR in t…

OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for patients with chronic pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The research conducted a systematic search of the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, PsycIN…

Bacterial biofilms, often forming on medical devices, can lead to treatment failure due to their increased antimicrobial resistance. Cefepime-avibactam (CFP-AVI) exhibits potent activities against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and …

Oxidative stress dysfunction has recently been found to be involved in the pathogenesis of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). Previously, we found that advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) in plasma were elevated in women with PO…
