Currently available classification criteria for obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome (OAPS) are often overly strict and may miss a considerable number of patients with so-called "non-criteria-defined OAPS". We aimed to establish a diagnostic…

Abstract Objective This study aims to systematically compare the short-term efficacy and safety differences between daily oral 2 mg Dienogest (DNG) and daily oral 10 mg Mifepristone (MIF) in the treatment of patients with symptomatic aden…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer is a distinct form of epithelial ovarian cancer that arises from the malignant transformation of benign endometriotic lesions. While epithelial-mesenchymal transition is acknowledged as a …

BACKGROUND: In recent years, microRNAs have attracted increasing attention for their potential diagnostic and prognostic value across various diseases. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of mi…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder that causes substantial pain and infertility. Observational studies have reported higher rates of multiple psychiatric disorders among individuals with endomet…

BackgroundThe follicular-phase long GnRHa protocol is a common protocol in COH. This study mainly analyzed the recovery of FSH levels on the day of Gn initiation compared with basal FSH levels on the day of downregulation and studied the co…

ObjectivesThe relationship between clomiphene citrate (CC) dosing regimens and adverse reproductive outcomes has not been fully elucidated, both with and without use of in vitro fertilisation (IVF). We aimed to study the association between…

BackgroundAssisted reproductive technologies (ART) have been proven to be associated with the increased risk of pregnancy complications such as gestational hypertension and neonatal disorders, which may have negative effects on offspring's …

BackgroundFirst implantation failure (FIF) remains a significant challenge in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET), and a considerable proportion of affected women subsequently progress to re…

PURPOSE: Regarding anesthesia management for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment of uterine adenomyosis, existing research is limited. While considered non-invasive, HIFU ablation carries risks such as thermal injury to adjac…

BackgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of growth hormone (GH) as an adjuvant treatment for enhancing embryo quantity in patients with poor ovarian response (POR) who previously had no viable embryos in in vitro fertilization (I…

BackgroundAfter early pregnancy loss (EPL), couples often seek counselling on how long to wait before attempting to conceive again. However, the optimal interpregnancy interval (IPI) between EPL and the next pregnancy is controversial. Addi…

BackgroundWomen of childbearing age (WCBA) in East Asia and Pacific (EAP) have experienced rapid epidemiological change, yet research focus and policy priorities often remain concentrated on maternal survival. We aimed to characterize three…

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…

Following the publication of the above paper, it was drawn to the Editor's attention by a concerned reader that, regarding the histopathological images shown in Fig. 3 on p. 90, Fig. 3E and F showed an overlapping section, suggesting that t…

This study explored the genetic evidence linking triglyceride-related pathways and lipid-lowering drug targets with endometriosis risk and investigated the genetic association between TG levels and EM. Using genome-wide association study (G…

BackgroundDysmenorrhea impacts 45% to 95% of women of childbearing age globally. Research on the neuro-immune-endocrine regulatory network has grown by 22.3% annually over the past decade, yet the field faces challenges including fragmented…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a frequent inflammatory disorder with outcomes ranging from mild disease to severe forms marked by infection and organ failure. Gut microenvironment disruption and barrier dysfunction are increasingly recognized a…

BackgroundPremature ovarian insufficiency (POI) significantly impairs female fertility and poses substantial health risks; however, its pathogenesis is incompletely understood, and effective therapeutic interventions are limited. Although g…

Lactic acid modification of histones represents an emerging post-translational modification that establishes a critical link between cellular metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic regulation through the covalent binding of lactic acid to h…

Human endometrial receptivity is a critical determinant of pregnancy success; however, in vivo studies of its features and regulation are particularly challenging due to ethical restrictions. Recently, the development of human endometrial a…

Cytoreductive surgery is the treatment protocol for colorectal cancer. Nonetheless, a major medical challenge remains to fully eliminate malignant tumor cells, along with a number of complications such as peritoneal adhesion and tumor perit…

BackgroundMigraine is a very common chronic neurological disorder associated with severe disability and significant social burden worldwide. Beyond recurrent headache attacks, increasing evidence indicates that migraine often coexists with …

Objectives: Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) significantly compromises in vitro fertilization (IVF) success. Although systemic markers such as anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) serve as valuable clinical indicators of the ovarian reserve, they l…
