Endometriosis is a benign yet chronic gynecologic condition that, in rare cases, may undergo malignant transformation. Although endometriosis-associated malignancies most commonly arise in the ovary, extragonadal sites may also be affected.…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between third-trimester antenatal depression (AND) and the number of pregnancies, considering the possible moderating role of dysmenorrhea. METHODS: A total of 1,178 pregnant women in their third t…

BACKGROUND: Hydrosalpinx affects 10-30% of infertile women, creating a hostile tubal microenvironment that impairs embryonic development. Although fluid embryotoxicity is recognised, specific toxic metabolites and their molecular mechanisms…

Gallbladder carcinoma, among the most prevalent malignancies of the biliary system, often presents with insidious early symptoms. Delayed diagnosis of incidental gallbladder carcinoma frequently leads to therapeutic delays, significantly co…

Obesity triggers ovarian dysfunction and female infertility accompanied by granulosa cell damage. Ferroptosis, iron-dependent lipid peroxidation-mediated cell death, participates in multiple reproductive diseases, yet the molecular cascade …

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…

OBJECTIVE: To compare perioperative safety, efficiency and learning curves of MPLH, RASPH and SPLH, and analyze surgical disparities stratified by uterine volume. We adopted multivariable regression (primary adjusted analysis) and multinomi…

Epidemiological inconsistencies currently obscure the causal link between polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and breast cancer. This review synthesizes multi-disciplinary evidence to characterize PCBs not as passive exposure correlates but as…

BACKGROUND: To evaluate whether progesterone-induced changes in endometrial thickness (EMT) affect singleton infant outcomes during frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed 6,331 singleton live…

Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully unde…

This Correspondence is a formal response to the Comment by Dr. Machado regarding our publication "Creatine Promotes Endometriosis by Inducing Ferroptosis Resistance via Suppression of PrP." We address several conceptual concerns raised in t…

PURPOSE: Infants born after assisted reproductive technology (ART) have more adverse health outcomes than spontaneously conceived infants. Evidence on the impact of ART on the offspring's visual system, particularly refractive errors (REs),…

Endometriosis is characterized by progressive fibrosis and limited therapeutic options. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death, has been implicated in multiple pathological conditions, but its relevance to fibroblast-m…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common gynecological disorder in reproductive-age women, with impaired endometrial receptivity as a key contributor to infertility. However, a comprehensive single-cell atlas of the eutopic endometrium duri…

Defective endometrial decidualization is one major cause of female infertility, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we identified that protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), which was upregulated during decidualizatio…

BACKGROUND: The clinical efficacy of antioxidants in assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains inconsistent. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of oral antioxidant supplementation on reproductive outc…

BACKGROUND: The incidence of malignant tumors/precancerous lesions is rising, yet their impact on pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) remains unclear. METHODS: A single-…

BACKGROUND: Protein palmitoylation is a significant post-translational modification that influences protein stability, localization, and signaling through the addition of palmitoyl groups to cysteine, serine/threonine, or lysine residues. I…

OBJECTIVE: To compare dietary preparation durations and evaluate optimal diet types before high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five hundred patients with uterine fibroids or adenomyosis undergoing HIF…

Filamentous fungi exhibit high heavy metal resistance; elucidating their resistance mechanisms is of practical importance for fungal utilization and for engineering other microorganisms. However, the molecular basis of copper tolerance in f…

BACKGROUND: To analyze trends in surgical approach stratified by Body Mass Index (BMI) among women undergoing hysterectomy for benign indications in the United States and to compare clinical outcomes in morbidly obese patients (BMI > 40 kg/…

Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1), a polymodally activated, calcium-permeable non-selective cation channel, is broadly present in all parts of the body, with notable expression in the nociceptive neurons. Both physiol…

BACKGROUND: Current research primarily concentrates on acute and chronic postpartum pain, while sub-acute pain after childbirth (SAPC) remains a significant but often under-recognized health concern. We determined if pain and psychological …
