BACKGROUND: Pulmonary metastasis of benign uterine leiomyoma and uterine endometriosis has been reported; however, pulmonary benign metastasizing uterine adenomyoma has not been reported. Herein, we report the first case of pulmonary benign…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common causes of anovulatory infertility. Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has many advantages in treating PCOS. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to investigate the effec…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of oocyte thawing cycles in the clinical application of assisted reproductive technology (ART). STUDY DESIGN: The clinical data of 78 cases who underwent oocyte thawing cycles in our center were …

OBJECTIVE: This prospective cohort study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of goserelin 10.8 mg administered trimonthly with goserelin 3.6 mg administered monthly in premenopausal females with symptomatic adenomyosis. METHO…

BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a critical problem for assisted reproduction technology. High-quality embryos and the synchronization endometrium both have great significance. How to get the optimal endometrial receptivi…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance hysterosalpingography (MR-HSG) for fallopian tubal occlusion in the context of female infertility when compared to the diagnostic performance of hysterosalpingosonograp…

Although long non coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in the pathogenesis of diseases, endometriosis related lncRNAs and circRNAs are still rarely reported. This study focused on the potential molecular m…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometrioma is a common gynecologic disease among reproductive-aged women. Pregnancy-related hormonal status may lead to changes of decidualization, which may resemble ovarian malignancies in sonographic appearance. Her…

Intrauterine adhesions (IUA), characterized by endometrial fibrosis, is a common cause of uterine infertility. We previously demonstrated that partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the loss of epithelial homeostasis play a vit…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, and its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Patients are at a higher risk of recurrence after surgery or drug withdrawal. In this study, to identify a potentially effective and safe therapy…

BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) in the majority of patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is caused by various factors such as maternal age, embryo quality, endometrial receptivity (ER), and…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to explore whether the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccination of both partners in infertile couples, different types of COVID-19 vaccines, and the interval between complete vaccination and oocyte retrieval or e…

As we all know, female obesity has become a global epidemic, which is usually accompanied with endocrine and metabolic disorders. Obese women are more likely to experience reproductive problems, including infertility, embryonic developmenta…

BACKGROUND: Nicotinamide (NAM) is an important antioxidant, which is closely related to female fertility, but its role has not been clearly elucidated. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of NAM on follicular dev…

BACKGROUND: This study aims to study whether the change of endometrial thickness between the day of human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) administration and the day of embryo transfer (ET) has any effect on ectopic pregnancy (EP) rate followi…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of different levels of physician experience on the high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of uterine fibroids and to provide a reference for the use of non-perfused volume ratio (NPVR) standards …

BACKGROUND: Peritoneal dissemination is the predominant feature of malignant progression in ovarian cancer and is a major cause of poor surgical outcomes and clinical prognoses. Abnormal glycosylation of carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) may…

BACKGROUND: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of tubal inflammatory drugs in patients with incomplete tubal obstruction of at least one side after four-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast-sonography (4D-HyCoSy) examination. METH…

STUDY QUESTION: Do differences in blood pressure within the normal range have any impacts on the live birth rate (primary outcome) or biochemical pregnancy rate (beta-hCG positivity), clinical pregnancy rate (heart beating in ultrasound), a…

Objective: To determine whether endometrioma recurrence is closely related to the presence of extrinsic adenomyosis, which was demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Design: Observational crosssectional study involving patients w…

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the factors associated with complications and long-term results in the surgical treatment of intestinal deep endometriosis and to figure out the optimized treatment measures for bowel endometriosis. M…

PURPOSE: Clear cell adenocarcinoma of the cervix (CCAC) is a rare pathological type of cervical cancer. This study aimed to report our clinical experience with CCAC treatment and analyze the factors associated with patient survival. PATIEN…

Carcinosarcoma, also known as malignant Mullerian mixed tumour, is a rare and aggressive ovarian malignant tumour. The prognosis of ovarian carcinosarcoma is very poor, accounting for the vast majority of ovarian cancer deaths. Due to the r…

Objective: Due to high levels of serum gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), perimenopausal or menopausal women, girls with central precocious puberty, women of polycystic ovary syndrome, and females receiving long-term GnRH agonist (GnRHa…
