Female fecundity declines in a nonlinear manner with age during the reproductive years, even as ovulatory cycles continue, which reduces female fertility, disrupts metabolic homeostasis, and eventually induces various chronic diseases. Desp…

The microenvironment of the endometrial immune system is crucial to the success of placental implantation and healthy pregnancy. However, the functionalities of immune cells across various stages of the reproductive cycle have yet to be ful…

PURPOSE: To investigate the association of sleep quality during pregnancy on in vitro fertilization/intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) and natural conceiving (NC), as well as anxiety, depression, and perceived stress. METHODS: Th…

Long non-coding RNAs play critical roles in the development of lung cancer by functioning as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. Changes in the expression of LINC01279 have been associated with cell differentiation and human diseases. However, …

INTRODUCTION: Gingivitis is a prevalent complication in adolescents undergoing fixed orthodontic treatments. However, changes in the supragingival microbiome associated with gingivitis and the impact of Candida albicans remain elusive. Ther…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the surgical outcomes and identify the conversion risk factors of Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) in treating ovarian cyst. METHODS: This was a retrospective study…

BACKGROUND: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common gynecological issue during reproductive years. Researches on how dietary diversity and patterns influence AUB in Chinese university students are limited, with some studies not clearly …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the number of cells in D3-stage embryos of high-quality blastocysts as a contributing factor, to evaluate the clinical pregnancy outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles, and to determine the impact of D3-s…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive disorder that frequently affects fertility. The TyG-BMI (Triglyceride glucose-body mass) index is a newly explored parameter that may be linked to reproductive results in…

BACKGROUND: Subtle distal fallopian tube abnormalities are a group of diseases characterised by small variations in tubal anatomy. The clinical significance of these abnormalities need to be studied. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this multice…

OBJECTIVE: To clarify whether intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) affect endometrial receptivity (ER) on the day of ovulation and to compare patients with mild and moderate-severe adhesions. METHODS: This prospective cohort study included 592 in…

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two similar gynecological diseases that are characterized by ectopic implantation and the growth of the endometrial tissue. Previous studies have reported that they share a common pathophysiology in some re…

Nectin-4 is a Ca2+-independent immunoglobulin-like protein that exhibits significantly elevated expression in malignant tumors while maintaining extremely low levels in healthy adult tissues. In recent years, overexpression of Nectin-4 has …

INTRODUCTION: Menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are vital in treating many degenerative and traumatic disorders. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain obscure in MenSCs-treating spinal cord injury (SCI) rats. METHOD…

To analyze the differential expression genes of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), clarify their functions and pathways, as well as the protein-protein interaction network, identify HUB genes, and explore the pathological mechanism. PCOS mic…

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is the most prevalent internal epigenetic posttranscriptional mechanism for regulating mammalian RNA. Despite recent advances in determining the biological functions of m6A methylation, its association w…

OBJECTIVE: Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is widely recognized for its advantages, including reduced postoperative pain and the absence of visible scarring. However, the anatomical specificity required for …

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine the safety of Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) in terms of the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) concept for tubal pregnancy surgery and provide a detailed process of vNO…

BackgroundBullous pemphigoid (BP) is a rare, life-threatening autoimmune blistering disease with pruritus and tension blisters/bullous as the main clinical manifestations. Glucocorticosteroids are the main therapeutic agents for it, but the…

OBJECTIVE: Pancreatitis poses a serious medical problem worldwide. This study aims to explore the epidemiological trends of pancreatitis from 1990 to 2019, analyze the association between disease burden and age, period and birth cohort, and…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease distinguished by ectopic endometrium and fibrosis. NLRP3 inflammasome and pyroptosis are present in endometriosis. Aberrant increase of Long noncoding (Lnc)-metastasis-associated lung adenocar…

BACKGROUND: Resistant ovarian syndrome(ROS) is a rare disease. It is difficult to diagnose and treat. Most of the literature reports on assisted pregnancy treatment for ROS patients are individual case reports. In this paper, the ovulation …

To explore the association between uterine volume and in vitro fertilization (IVF) reproductive outcomes of infertile patients with adenomyosis, we performed a retrospective cohort study of infertile patients with adenomyosis who underwent …

This study evaluated the effects of antibiotics on the implantation rate (IR) as well as the optimal time interval from endometrial biopsy to subsequent embryo transfer (ET) to explore proper chronic endometritis (CE) management. We retrosp…

Objective: To establish a predictive model distinguishing focal mass-forming pancreatitis (FMFP) from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) based on computed tomography (CT) radiomics and clinical data. Methods: A total of 78 FMFP patient…
