BackgroundThe concentration of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)/ luteinizing hormone (LH) after triggering is generally accepted as a predictor of the normal ovarian response to the trigger, but few studies have explored the distribution …

Abstract Exercise, as an effective non-drug intervention, plays an important role in preventing and alleviating several diseases. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is caused by an excessive accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in …

BackgroundThe number of oocytes retrieved does not always coincide with the number of follicles aspirated in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment. Patients with high expectation of retrieval sometimes…

RationaleUterine rupture (UR) during pregnancy is a serious obstetric complication. Here we report a case of spontaneous rupture in an unscarred uterus at 13 weeks of gestation after in vitro fertilization embryo transfer, which is not comm…

Study objectiveTo describe the surgical technique and compare the operative outcomes of gasless and traditional robot-assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (GR-vNOTES vs. TR-vNOTES) in hysterectomy.MethodsThe…

BackgroundThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of transcutaneous electronic acupoint stimulation (TEAS) for improving postoperative recovery after gynecologic surgery.MethodsWe performed a thorough search …

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a highly expressed tumor marker in epithelial ovarian cancer, and its overexpression is considered to be a potential factor of poor prognosis. Therefore, monitoring the expression of HER2 r…

BACKGROUND: Placement of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is an effective treatment for adenomyosis, especially for patients who have severe dysmenorrhea symptoms but a strong desire to preserve fertility. Nonetheles…

Ovarian cancer is among the leading causes of gynecological cancer-related mortality worldwide. Early and accurate diagnosis and an effective treatment strategy are the two primary means of improving the prognosis of patients with ovarian c…

BackgroundHyperparathyroidism-Jaw Tumor (HPT-JT) is caused by inactivating germline mutations of CDC73. This hereditary disease can present with a range of symptoms. Jaw ossifying fibroma (OF) is one of the most important clinical presentat…

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of this combined treatment for chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) by meta-analysis.MethodsRelevant articles were retrieved from PubMed, CNKI, Wanfang Data, Web of Science, and Embase, including…

BackgroundPrevious reports have demonstrated two thiazolidione derivatives (H2-60 and H2-81) can robustly inhibit the planktonic growth and biofilm formation of S. epidermidis and S. aureus by targeting the histidine kinase YycG. Whereas th…

PurposeTo evaluate the association between body mass index (BMI) and pregnancy outcomes in women receiving intrauterine insemination (IUI) treatment.MethodsThe study included 6407 women undergoing 13,745 IUI cycles stratified by BMI. Cox re…

Neutrophils are involved in the development of endometritis, but it remains unknown how neutrophils induce inflammation and tissue damage. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) clear invading pathogens during infection but induce pyroptosis…

The immune microenvironment at the maternal-fetal interface was determined by the crosstalk between the trophoblast and maternal-derived cells, which dynamically changed during the whole gestation. Trophoblasts act as innate immune cells an…

Introduction: Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) is a rare metabolic disease caused by biallelic variants in ACSF3 gene. The clinical phenotype is highly heterogeneous in this disorder, ranging from asymptomatic to severe …

The pathological expression and function of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), a key enzyme that converts pyruvate into lactic acid during glycolysis, remains unknown in endometriosis. In the present study, LDHA expression in tissue samples wa…

CapsuleOligo/amenorrhea is an independent risk factor of low ovarian response but not high ovarian response, particularly in women with low AMH levels.ObjectiveTo investigate the association of menstrual cycle length (MCL) with anti-Mülleri…

BackgroundThe composition of pelvic masses during pregnancy is complex, and over >70% of masses are physiology. Determining the source and nature of tumor tissue is incredibly important in clinical practice, as the proportion of metastatic …

Protozoan parasite infection causes severe diseases in humans and animals, leading to tremendous economic and medical pressure. Natural immunity is the first line of defence against parasitic infection. Currently, the role of natural host i…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas. Accumulating studies have revealed the involvement of tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) in the progression of AP. Here, the current study was conducte…

OBJECTIVE: The present study was designed to investigate the expression of miR-9-5p and to study the effect of miR-9-5p expression on the invasion and migration of endometrial stromal cells in endometriosis patients. METHODS: We recruited 1…

BACKGROUND: Various risk factors have been associated with epithelial ovarian cancer risk in observational epidemiological studies. However, the causal nature of the risk factors reported, and thus their suitability as effective interventio…

BackgroundEmbryonic mortality is a major concern in the commercial swine industry and primarily occurs early in gestation, but also during mid-gestation (~ days 50-70). Previous reports demonstrated that the embryonic loss rate was signific…

Autophagy is a survival process that maintains homeostasis in all eukaryotic cells. Recent studies show an abnormal autophagic activity in endometriosis, but the role of autophagy is controversial. Homeobox A10 (HOXA10) is a transcription f…
