STUDY OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether different timings of GnRH-a downregulation affected assisted reproductive outcomes in infertile women with moderate-to-severe intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) accompanied by adenomyosis. DESIGN: A retro…

Melatonin, as an endocrine neurotransmitter, can promote the development of the ovary. Meanwhile, it also has protective effect on the ovary as an antioxidant. Thyroid hormone (TH) is essential for normal human reproductive function. Many s…

BACKGROUND: Non-invasive chromosome screening (NICS) and trophectoderm biopsy preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (TE-PGT) were both applied for embryo ploidy detection, However, the cumulative live birth rates (CLBR) of NICS and…

Inadequate endometrial receptivity often results in embryo implantation failure and miscarriage. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a key signaling molecule secreted during early embryonic development, which regulates embryonic maternal …

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine protein kinase crucial for cellular differentiation, proliferation, and autophagy. It shows a complex role in the endometrium, influencing both normal and pathogenic conditions.…

BACKGROUND: Anti-angiogenic therapy has become one of the effective treatment methods for tumors. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as important regulators of tumorigenesis and angiogenesis in EC. However, the underlying mechanisms…

BACKGROUND: Body weight could be classified into underweight, normal weight and overweight according to percentage of body fat (%BF), and normal weight obesity (NWO) is defined as a normal BMI but a high %BF. While the impact of NWO in wome…

BACKGROUND: Phthalates are ubiquitously used in a variety of products and have an adverse effect on folliculogenesis. However, previous epidemiological studies on the associations between phthalate exposure and antral follicle count (AFC) p…

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore formula patterns and application rules for SP6 as the main acupoint in prescriptions, utilizing association rules. METHODS: We conducted an extensive search in databases including China National Knowle…

PURPOSE: The impact of body mass index (BMI) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) has been well acknowledged; however, the reported conclusions are still incongruent. This study aimed to investigate the effect of BMI on IVF embryos and fresh tra…

BACKGROUND: The traditional cross technique can be used to complete most laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) procedures, but some relatively precise operations, such as vaginal stump suturing, are challenging. In practice, we have i…

BACKGROUND: The development of the ovaries is an important factor that affects egg production performance in geese. Ovarian development is regulated by genes that are expressed dynamically and stage-specifically. The transcriptome profile a…

BACKGROUND: Identifying and locating endometriotic lesions is crucial for preoperative planning, so new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques are urgently needed to improve the diagnostic sensitivity for pelvic endometriosis. PURPOSE…

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) contributes to ovarian dysfunctions in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) patients. Serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) is an acute phase protein produced primarily by the liver in response to inflammation. In additi…

This investigation probed endometriosis treatment using targeted nanoparticles (NPs) to modulate autophagic activity. To that end, a novel form of polymer-based NP gene delivery platform consisting of polyethyleneimine (PEI) conjugated to s…

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is an intractable disease without long-term effective therapy. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of botulinum toxin A (BoNT/A) plus Sapylin, which might modulate the imm…

BACKGROUND: Vulvodynia, vulvar pain of unknown origin lasting at least 3 months, affects 7% of American women. Dyspareunia, its frequent companion, renders sexual intercourse virtually impossible. Although few therapies are efficacious and …

During implantation, a symphony of interaction between the trophoblast originated from the trophectoderm of the implanting blastocyst and the endometrium leads to a successful pregnancy. Defective interaction between the trophoblast and end…

Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) further minimizes the invasiveness of traditional laparoscopic surgery. However, the "chopstick" effect caused by the parallel arrangement of the instruments in the umbilicus is considered an obst…

Endometriosis is associated with dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. The specific mechanism of endometriosis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to apply a bioinformatics approach to reveal related pathways or genes i…

PURPOSE: The risks of gynecologic cancer have not been well established in women with endometriosis. The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of endometriosis on the risk for three gynecologic cancer (ovarian canc…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate self-reported sensory pain scores of women with generalized vulvodynia (GV) and provoked vestibulodynia (PVD), characterize pain phenotypes, and assess feasibility of using the Internet for recruitment and data colle…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate whether exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) affects the ovarian reserve. METHODS: Follicular fluid (FF) was collected from diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) and non-DOR patients who underwent in vitro ferti…

RATIONALE: Endometrial cancer patients with lung metastases are rare, and more rarely with long-term management of progesterone after recurrence. PATIENT CONCERNS: Informed consent of the patients and their families. DIAGNOSES: Endometria…
