INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is delineated as a benign yet steroid-dependent disorder characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial glandular and stromal cells outside the uterine cavity, affecting estimated 10%-15% of women of reprod…

Uterine adenomyosis causing attention to the abnormal smooth muscle layer has recently received increasing attention, which has created the need for a method that can efficiently collect high purity uterine smooth muscle cells (USMC) in a l…

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to explore the epidemiological characteristics of suspected adenomyosis within a physical examination population in China. DESIGN: A retrospective, nested case-control study; we matched healthy people and those with po…

BackgroundSurgery for adnexal mass does occur in pregnant women and therefore the choice of surgery during pregnancy needs to be carefully considered and studied. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of Laparo-endoscopic …

BACKGROUND: The efficiency of different first-line treatments, such as first-line surgery and assisted reproductive technology (ART), in women with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is still unclear due to a lack of direct comparative t…

Tjalma's syndrome is a benign combination of ascites, pleural effusion, and elevated CA-125 occurring in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Reports of Tjalma's syndrome are scarce. An elevated CA-125 level often suggests the possib…

IN BRIEF: Elevated expression of miR-122-5p in exosomes in the follicular fluid of patients with endometriosis impairs glucose metabolism in cumulus cells and may further impair oocyte quality. ABSTRACT: Endometriosis (EMs) affects fertili…

IN BRIEF: Abnormal glucose metabolism may be involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The present study identifies that highly expressed H19 leads to increased aerobic glycolysis and histone lactylation levels in endometriosis. ABSTR…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) and chronic endometritis (CE) frequently coexist. This study aimed to examine the impact of CE on reproductive outcomes in patients with EMS. METHODS: We enrolled 685 patients with endometriosis-associated i…

Abstract Background Severe endometriosis significantly impacts the quality of life, particularly in women of reproductive age. Though numerous studies have conducted predictive models with preoperative clinical data for endometriosis, mos…

Growing research suggests that endometriosis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are both chronic inflammatory diseases and closely related, but no studies have explored their common molecular characteristics and underlying mechanisms. B…

AIMS: Endometriosis is characterized by an abnormal immune microenvironment. Despite the extensive use of immune therapies, the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors in endometriosis lacks confidence due to the instability of preclini…

BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the main cause of anovulatory infertility in women of reproductive age, and low-grade chronic inflammation plays a key role in the occurrence and development of PCOS. However, obesity, as a like…

Accumulating oxidative damage is a primary driver of ovarian reserve decline along with aging. However, the mechanism behind the imbalance in reactive oxygen species (ROS) is not yet fully understood. Here we investigated changes in iron me…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) among Chinese reproductive-age women toward uterine adenomyosis. METHODS: This web-based cross-sectional study was conducted between April 2023 and Septembe…

In the last decade, organoid research has entered a golden era, signifying a pivotal shift in the biomedical landscape. The year 2023 marked a milestone with the publication of thousands of papers in this arena, reflecting exponential growt…

PURPOSE: To summarize evidence on levonorgestrel releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) in the treatment of adenomyosis (AM) and to identify potential research gaps. METHODS: Search was conducted in MEDLINE, The Cochrane Library, EMBASE, …

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EM) is an estrogen-dependent benign gynecologic disease affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age women with a high recurrence rate, but lacks reliable biomarkers. No previous studies have investigated the…

BackgroundThis study retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 200 patients with endometrial hyperplasia to predict the risk of concurrent endometrial cancer.MethodsPatients were categorized into either the endometrial cancer group or…

ObjectivesTo investigate the effects of music combined with dexmedetomidine on perioperative anxiety and postoperative recovery in gynecologic laparoscopic patients.MethodsA total of 82 female patients were enrolled in this study. Patients …

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Reproductive ability of sows is a primary element influencing the development of pig farming. Herbal extracts of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels, Astragalus mongholicus Bunge, Eucommia ulmoides Oliv., and Pol…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is well known as a chronic inflammatory disease. The development of endometriosis is heavily influenced by the estrogen receptor β (ERβ), while NOD-like receptors (NLRs) family CARD domain-containing 5 (NLRC5) exhi…

The adverse effect of ambient PM2.5 exposure on very early pregnancy (VEP) remains controversial among epidemiological studies but is supported by toxicological evidence. We adopted a multicenter retrospective cohort of 141,040 cycles to ev…
