Background/Objectives: Primary dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological disorder characterized by painful uterine contractions. Danggui Buxue Decoction (DBD) is used to treat menstrual irregularities, but its mechanism in primary dysmenorrhea…

BACKGROUND Vitamin D is crucial for overall health. While prenatal deficiency is linked to poor obstetric outcomes, its preconception levels are less studied. This investigation sought to characterize the distribution and influencing factor…

OBJECTIVE: This retrospective cohort study compares perioperative outcomes of reduced Trendelenburg positioning (≤ 20°) versus conventional steep angles (≥ 30°) in gasless vNOTES for benign gynecologic conditions. METHODS: Of 102 enrolled p…

ObjectiveThis study investigated the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of IL-17A neutralisation on renal interstitial fibrosis and inflammation in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs).MethodsSHRs were treated with an IL-17A-neutralising …

Recent studies have highlighted the crucial role of mechanical properties in the ovarian microenvironment for ovarian function. However, the mechanisms that cause ovarian matrix stiffening during aging remain incompletely understood. Here w…

Gynecologic disorders, including infections, sterile inflammatory diseases, endocrine abnormalities, and malignancies, share a common signature of dysregulated immunity within a uniquely hormone-responsive reproductive tract. Neutrophil ext…

BackgroundHyperthyroidism adversely impacts female reproduction, yet its association with in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes remains controversial. It remains unknown whether ovarian function recovers upon achieving euthyroidism. We comp…

PurposeTo systematically conduct a retrospective summary of the optimal surgical strategies and techniques for managing various types of unilateral genital tract obstruction with ipsilateral renal anomaly (UGTOIRA) syndrome, and to establis…

BackgroundAccurate diagnosis of rectal and perirectal lesions remains challenging, particularly for submucosal, necrotic, or anatomically complex masses where conventional endoscopic forceps biopsy (EFB) often yields insufficient tissue. Tr…

Traditional view holds that the uterus is a sterile environment. However, with the increased development of molecular biology technologies, this classical theory has been re-examined. Increasing evidence shows that a low-biomass, uniquely s…

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 …

Polypoid endometriosis (PEM) is a rare and distinctive variant of endometriosis, with ectopic endometrium presenting as a polypoid appearance. Due to the irregular shape of the mass on imaging, accompanied by obvious blood flow signals and …

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…

The ovary is a crucial gonadal organ that supports female reproductive and endocrine functions. Ovarian aging can result in decreased fertility and dysfunction across multiple organs. Research has demonstrated that cellular senescence in va…

Leiomyomas (LM) and adenomyosis (AM) are common gynecological diseases with high incidence rates and an increasing trend of affecting younger women. Accurate detection and differentiation of LM and AM in ultrasound images are crucial for se…

ObjectiveObservational studies suggest that blood lipids are a risk factor for uterine fibroids (UFs) and that lipid-lowering drugs are beneficial for the treatment and prevention of UF; however, the conclusions are inconsistent. We aimed t…

In this study, we evaluated the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a 44-year-old woman with leiomyomatosis peritoneal disseminata (LPD), who presented with a progressively enlarging lower abdominal mass, persistent distension, and…

BackgroundComprehensive sonographic evaluation of pre- and postmenopausal women with abnormal uterine bleeding is essential for accurate diagnosis and the optimization of curative outcomes for endometrial malignancy. Microvascular flow imag…

Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular process crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis by degrading damaged organelles and misfolded proteins. Emerging evidence highlights its pivotal role in endometrial diseases, including endometri…

This research aimed to determine the predictive value of a combined diagnosis of serum platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) and placental growth factor (PLGF) levels, gut microbiota count, and uterine artery Doppler ultra…

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder frequently associated with infertility, yet the underlying immune mechanisms remain poorly understood. Sun's Bushen Huayu Formula (BSHYF) has been clinically applied to improve fertilit…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to assess how embolization endpoints affect the efficacy of uterine artery embolization (UAE) for adenomyosis. METHODS: In this single-center retrospective cohort study, patients treated with UAE from 2014-2018…

ObjectiveTricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome-1 (TRPS1), an atypical GATA transcription factor, plays a critical role in diverse physiological and pathological processes and holds potential as a biomarker for diseases and targeted tumor therapi…

Ovarian aging is a major factor for female subfertility. Multiple antioxidants have been applied in different clinical scenarios, but their effects on fertility in women with ovarian aging are still unclear. To address this, a meta-analysis…
