PURPOSE: The preoperative diagnosis of endometriosis associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) remains challenging for lack of effective diagnostic biomarker. We aimed to study clinical characteristics and develop a nomogram for diagnosing EAOC befo…

INTRODUCTION: This report details a case of Type I oblique vaginal septum syndrome (OVSS), highlighting its complexity as a congenital uterine malformation. CASE PRESENTATION: A 12-year-old girl presented with severe lower abdominal pain c…

Endometrial collagen I undergoes dynamic degradation and remodelling in response to endometrial stromal cell (ESC) decidualization and embryo implantation. However, excessive collagen I deposition in the endometrium during the implantation …

The proliferation and death of granulosa cells (GCs) in poultry play a decisive role in follicular fate and egg production. The follicular fluid (FF) contains a variety of nutrients and genetic substances to ensure the communication between…

We evaluated the diagnostic performance of a multimodal deep-learning (DL) model for ovarian mass differential diagnosis. This single-center retrospective study included 1,054 ultrasound (US)-detected ovarian tumors (699 benign and 355 mali…

BACKGROUND: Myofascial pelvic pain (MFPP), which is identified by tender points in the pelvic floor musculature, is a prevalent source of chronic pelvic pain in women. It may lead to physical and mental exhaustion, reproductive concerns, an…

Endometrial disorders, such as infertility and endometriosis, significantly impact reproductive health, thus necessitating better models to study endometrial function. Current in vitro models fail to replicate the complexity of the human en…

PURPOSE: Accurate segmentation of the endometrium in ultrasound images is essential for gynecological diagnostics and treatment planning. Manual segmentation methods are time-consuming and subjective, prompting the exploration of automated …

LncRNAs are highly implicated in oxidative stress (OS) during the growth of mammalian follicles. TAK1 binding protein 2 gene (TAB2) has been suggested to involve in the normal apoptosis and proliferation of granulosa cells (GCs), the main s…

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the causal relationship between urate level and female infertility using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. METHODS: To identify instrumental variables, we selected independent gene…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is an enigmatic disease of yet-unknown pathogenesis. Disulfidptosis, a novel identified form of programmed cell death resulting from disulfide stress, stands a chance of treating diverse ailments. However, th…

PURPOSE: Urologic chronic pelvic pain syndrome has attracted a lot of attention in the new century, and an increasing number of relevant studies have been published. Therefore, we performed a bibliometric analysis of these publications, hop…

The quality and maturation of an oocyte not only play decisive roles in fertilization and embryo success, but also have long-term impacts on the later growth and development of the fetus. Female fertility declines with age, reflecting a dec…

BACKGROUND/AIM: This study investigated the clinicopathological characteristics and treatment of appendix neuroendocrine neoplasms in appendectomy specimens of our center. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The clinicopathological data, including age,…

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) may adversely impact the in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes. However, the association of IR with ovarian sensitivity during controlled ovarian hyperstimulatio…

PURPOSE: To prospectively study the influence of the volume of the uterine junctional zone (JZ) as a novel predictor of reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer cycles. METHODS: Among the first 30 patients, intra- and interobserver r…

OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is difficult to diagnose because of its low incidence, uncertain risk factors, and the absence of effective markers. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of E…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate clinical and singleton newborn outcomes in fresh cycles of embryo transfer after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI-ET) with diverse sperm sources (ejaculate, epididymis, and testis) in patients with Oligoasthe…

Early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (Re-ICSI) can prevent total fertilization failure (TFF) during conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, the implantation rate of Re-ICSI embryos is lower than that of direct ICSI duri…

IMPORTANCE: A growing number of children are conceived with assisted reproductive technology (ART). However, there is a lack of studies systematically analyzing the genetic landscape of live-born children conceived through ART who need inte…

PURPOSE: This study aims to identify the mechanism of Inhibin Subunit Beta B (INHBB), a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family involved in the regulation of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) decidualization in recur…

BACKGROUND: Numerous research have investigated the predictor role of progesterone (P) level on the human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) trigger day of assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. However, the relationship of progesterone…

Owing to its difficulty in degrading and ease of accumulation in the body, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has a detrimental effect on reproduction. This study aimed to examine the effect of PFOA concentration in follicular fluid during ovula…

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to explore the effect of body mass index (BMI) and insulin resistance (IR) levels on first-time assisted conception results and perinatal outcomes in young polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients.…

In the process of spermatogenesis and maturation, histones of the sperm nucleus were gradually replaced by protamine. Abnormal sperm nucleoprotein histotype conversion can make sperm DNA unstable and affect sperm function. The aim of this s…
