The endocervico-myomatous fistula is a rare condition that has been reported as a complication following uterine artery embolization. To date, no primary case of this nature has been documented in the PubMed database. The objective of this …

OBJECTIVE: Adenomyosis is a debilitating gynecologic condition. The present study aimed to compare the effects of laparoscopic total hysterectomy (LTH) and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) on pain relief, menstrual blood loss, and s…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of bisphosphonates on surgical site infection (SSI) and their safety in postmenopausal women undergoing Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF). METHODS: This was a single-center retrospective coh…

ObjectivesThis study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ovarian vein embolization combined with polidocanol sclerotherapy for Venous-origin chronic pelvic pain (VO-CPP) and to elucidate potential risk factors affecting prognosis.Me…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder with a complex pathogenesis that includes disordered follicle development, hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis dysfunction, hyperandrogenemia, and insulin resistance. The…

BACKGROUND: Direct comparative data on postoperative sexual function between laparoscopic total hysterectomy (LTH) and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in adenomyosis (AM) remain limited; therefore, this retrospective study compared…

BackgroundPreeclampsia is a severe hypertensive disorder with rising global prevalence. While machine learning (ML) models for predicting preeclampsia are increasingly published, existing evidence shows high heterogeneity, and the distincti…

BackgroundRecent studies have revealed that the anti-inflammatory properties of vitamin D may play a role in pain regulation. To systematically map the global research landscape on vitamin D and chronic or idiopathic pain from 2000 to 2023,…

PurposeTo investigate the impact of regressed endometrial hyperplasia (EH) on assisted reproductive technology outcomes, particularly in comparison with infertile women with a relatively normal endometrium.MethodsThis retrospective study in…

Luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIEgens) have attracted increasing attention for biomedical applications, prompting concerns regarding their potential toxicity. Although some studies have reported the in vivo toxicity of AIEge…

Adenomyoma originating from the round ligament of the uterus represents a remarkably uncommon pathological entity. Considering the anatomical course of the round ligament through the inguinal canal, pathological lesions in this structure ma…

ObjectiveTo identify if there is a high-risk group for chronic endometritis (CE) in infertile women.MethodsA retrospective single-center cohort study was conducted on 209 infertile women with CE and 843 women without. Both univariate and mu…

PurposeARID1A, encoding a component of the switch/sucrose nonfermentable complex, is frequently mutated in urothelial carcinoma. However, its specific impacts on clinical outcomes and CD8+ T-cell functions in urothelial carcinoma remain poo…

PurposeThe International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetric (FIGO) stage is critical to guiding the treatments of ovarian cancer (OC). We tried to develop a model to predict the FIGO stage of OC through machine learning algorithms with …

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) mainly depends on liver fibrosis/cirrhosis, which is regulated by tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME), and is a crucial factor in tumor progression. This study aimed to identify abnormally express…

ObjectiveThe causative role of gut microbiota in pancreatitis remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate potential causal associations between gut microbiota and pancreatitis, using bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.…

BackgroundHysteroscopic septum resection has been a widespread technique throughout the world in women with a septate uterus. The effectiveness of hysteroscopic septum resection before IVF was equivocal. This study aimed to investigate whet…

BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from umbilical cord blood (UCB) exhibit significant therapeutic efficacy in endometriosis; however, the molecular mechanisms governing their regulation remain incompletely elucidated. This …

The incidence of malignant tumors continues to grow. Still, with the rapid development of various diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, the survival rate of malignant tumors has been improved, and the increased survival rate has introduced…

BackgroundGrowing evidence suggests that environmental pollutants exert a detrimental impact on female fertility. Among these pollutants, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), easily encountered in the environment, have garnered significant at…

Diseases of the female reproductive system are prevalent. These conditions often have a high proportion of asymptomatic patients and prolonged treatment durations. Estrogen, a crucial steroid hormone, plays a central role in most diseases o…

BackgroundThe etiology of interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/BPS) remains elusive, presenting significant challenges in both diagnosis and treatment. To address these challenges, we employed a comprehensive approach aimed at…

CXC chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) has emerged as a critical mediator in tumorigenesis. This study aims to elucidate the role of CXCL8 in the initiation and progression of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Comprehensive bioinformatic analyses …

This study attempted to evaluate the incidence of incidentalomas based on computed tomography (CT) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. CRC patients who obtained plan or enhanced CT for the whole abdominal and pelvis were included at the Fi…
