OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical characteristics of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), summarize the experiences in its diagnosis and management, and identify potential peripheral blood indicators associated with the severity of …
Endometriosis is caused by the migration of endometrial cells to locations outside the uterine lining. Despite the increasing prevalence of endometriosis, there has been limited research on genetic effects, and its molecular mechanisms rema…
The microbiota of the female genital tract is crucial for reproductive health. This study aims to investigate the impact of the lower genital tract microbiota on in vitro fertilization and frozen embryo transfer (IVF-FET) outcomes. This stu…
IntroductionInflammation has been implicated in both reproduction and sleep; however, the relationships remain unclear, and conclusive evidence for genetic associations is lacking.MethodsThis study utilized the 2013-2020 National Health and…
The diverse and dynamic population of microorganisms present in the gut microbiota may affect host health. There are evidences to support the role of gut microbiota as a key player in reproductive development. Unfortunately, the relationshi…
PurposeTo investigate BMAL1 and BMP6 expressive differences in ovarian granulosa cells (OGCs) of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), explore regulatory relationship, assess their impacts on OGC proliferation and apoptosis, and a…
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a recognized global public health problem. However, there are still limitations in the available therapeutic approaches and a lack of clinically effective drugs. Therefore, an in-depth exploration of the seco…
ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of the Er Zhi Tian Gui Formula (EZTGF) in diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) patients undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET); to examine the pharmacological mechanism of EZTGF in inhibi…
Background and objectivesPrevious studies have reported there were associations between ovarian function and dietary factors, metabolic factors and gut microbiota. However, it is unclear whether causal associations exist. We aimed to explor…
Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common malignant tumor worldwide. Surgical resection remains the primary treatment for GC, with laparoscopic surgery recommended by several international guidelines. Due to complex perigastric vessels, …
ObjectiveThis study aimed to analyze the effect of progesterone (P) levels on the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger day and the progesterone on hCG day-to-basal progesterone (PhCG/Pbasal) ratio on pregnancy outcomes in patients wit…
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and neoangiogenic disease. Endostatin is one of the most effective inhibitors of angiogenesis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been investigated as compelling options for cell therapy. However, the…
Background and objectivesMany patients with uterine fibroids turn to social media for information, where fibroid-related content has grown substantially. To effectively address misconceptions and deliver high-quality, patient-centered care,…
BackgroundGallic acid (GA), a plant-derived polyphenol, possesses diverse biological functions such as reducing inflammation and against tumors. Currently, the influence of GA on the resistance of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) c…
The dynamic interplay between hormonal signalling and immune-inflammatory homeostasis is pivotal for regulating endometrial decidualization, which is indispensable for successful embryo implantation. Hormonal imbalance-mediated inflammation…
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) affect the biological functions of granulosa cells (GCs) through multiple mechanisms, including epigenetic regulation, transcriptional regulation, post-translational modification, and cell signaling. Our previ…
IntroductionMetabolic syndrome is a serious public health concern across the globe. However, the typical metabolites and mechanisms underlying the decreased fertility related to metabolic syndrome is still elusive.ObjectivesThe aim of the p…
IntroductionThe aim of the study was to explore the impact of the clinical and embryological factors on the pregnancy outcome of FET cycle, while determining the applicability range for the primary predictor.MethodsA total of 4395 FET cycle…
The accelerating trend of obesity in women of childbearing age has become a significant issue in personal health, female fecundity, and offspring development. Simvastatin (SV) is a statin commonly prescribed oral agent for lipid-lowering th…
Research questionCan machine learning models accurately predict the risk of early miscarriage following single vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer (SVBT)?DesignA dual-center retrospective analysis of 1,664 SVBT cycles, including 308 early …
Progestogens commonly used in the clinic include levonorgestrel, etonogestrel, medroxyprogesterone, hydroxyprogesterone, progesterone, desogestrel, and megestrol. Progestogens are widely used for contraception and the treatment of endometri…
BackgroundAs women age, their ovarian follicle pool naturally declines. However, female germline stem cells (FGSCs) possess a unique ability to differentiate into oocytes and continuously self-renew, providing an effective means of delaying…
The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of Perilla Seed Extract (PSE) and its active ingredient on Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in vitro and in vivo. Thirty-two C57/BL mice were randomly divided into f…
PURPOSE: As microwave ablation (MWA) becomes an increasingly popular treatment for gynecological diseases, complications such as surgical site infections (SSIs) have emerged as critical concerns, particularly in high-risk patient population…
Both T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN) pose significant obstacles to successful kidney transplantation, emphasizing the importance of their accurate diagnosis for prompt medical interventi…
