BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is characterized by pain symptoms that seriously affect patients' quality of life. Gut microbiome-related metabolites (GMRM) play an important role in the process of EMS. However, the role of GMRM in endometr…

Sex hormone related disorders, characterized by complex etiology and long-term health risks, pose a significant challenge to global health. Hormone-based therapies are often accompanied by adverse effects and fail to address the underlying …

OBJECTIVE: Defective endometrial receptivity is an indispensable cause of infertility in endometriosis, yet the post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms underlying this impairment remain poorly understood. The goal of this research was to…

The hypothalamus plays a vital role in reproductive processes. Previous studies have identified hypothalamic miRNAs involved in mammalian reproduction, but the miRNA profiles induced by photoperiod changes remain unclear. In this study, we …

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of radiomics based on ultrasound in differentiating uterine fibroids (UFs) and uterine adenomyomas (AMs) and construct a noninvasive tool for this differentiation. METHODS: The clinical data and ultrasound…

For women with diminished ovarian reserve or of advanced age, controlled ovarian stimulation presents a significant challenge during in vitro fertilization cycles. This multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial enrolled 318 wome…

Endometrial polyps (EPs) are common uterine lesions associated with abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility, yet their pathogenesis remains poorly defined. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of normal endometrium, para-polyp, a…

BACKGROUND: Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a highly fibrotic and deeply invasive subtype of endometriosis that causes severe pelvic pain, infertility and marked impairment of quality of life. Metabolic, microbial and immune distur…

BACKGROUND: Cervical clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCAC) and cervical endometrioid adenocarcinoma (CEAC) are rare and aggressive non-HPV-associated malignancies. Despite their histological similarities, these subtypes demonstrate distinct biol…

INTRODUCTION: NR5A1 variants are among the most frequent monogenic causes of disorders of sex development (DSD). However, genotype-phenotype correlations remain unclear, and oligogenic contributions to variability are underexplored in non-c…

Endometriosis is a benign yet aggressive disease characterized by enhanced proliferation and invasion of ectopic endometrial tissue. Identifying upstream regulators that co-regulate these processes will provide novel insights into endometri…

Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, a renowned medicinal herb, exerts many of its systemic effects through intricate interactions with the gut microbiota, a relationship that also addresses the challenge of its own limited oral bioavailability. This …

Endometriosis exhibits epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-aligned traits that promote invasion and lesion persistence. We investigated whether poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) coordinates β-catenin/TCF4 activity with EMT programs…

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) have fundamentally changed the treatment paradigm for patients with ovarian cancer, especially in tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). However, acqu…

Adenomyosis is a prevalent disorder of the archimetra, historically conflated with endometriosis but possessing a unique pathobiological trajectory. This review synthesises current molecular evidence to propose a unified mechanistic framewo…

Background: Polydatin has shown anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cytoprotective effects in preclinical studies. Its development is limited by low oral bioavailability, extensive metabolism, and poorly defined tissue exposure. Objectives:…

Myfembree, a fixed-dose combination of relugolix, estradiol, and norethindrone acetate, is approved for premenopausal women with heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids and moderate to severe pain associated with endometri…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differences in pregnancy outcomes between fresh embryo transfer (ET) and frozen embryo transfer (FET) in women of advanced age undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART), and to provide evidence for opti…

Primary vaginal cancer is a rare malignant tumor; its pathogenesis remains unclear and only a limited number of cases have been documented in the literature. The present report outlines a rare case of primary vaginal endometrioid adenocarci…

This narrative review first summarizes current treatment strategies and postoperative prevention measures for intrauterine adhesions (IUAs), then discusses prognostic factors associated with pregnancy outcomes and recent advances in predict…

BACKGROUND: The relationship between the vascular flow index (VFI) of the endometrium and the pregnancy outcome in the frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycle remains controversial, and there is currently no recommended optimal range for VFI. O…
