An unique subclass of functional non-coding RNAs generated by transfer RNA (tRNA) under stress circumstances is known as tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA). tsRNAs can be divided into tRNA halves and tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) based on the d…

BACKGROUND: The exact role of sperm reactive oxygen species (ROS) in early embryo development has yet to be fully identified, and most of existing research did not differentiate female infertility factors, ignoring the importance of oocyte …

PURPOSE: To study the impact of undergoing an embryo transfer during the week of daylight savings time transition on live birth rates. METHODS: We performed a retrospective observational cohort study of patients undergoing embryo transfer …

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecological malignant tumor. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays an important role in the malignant behaviors of several tumors. In this study, we established a risk classifier based …

Estrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα) plays an important role in endometrial cancer (EC) progression. However, the biological roles of ERRα in EC invasion and metastasis are not clear. This study aimed to investigate the role of ERRα and 3…

BACKGROUND: Chinese medicinal retention enemas have gradually attracted the attention of clinicians as an alternative approach for tubal obstructive infertility. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of conven…

Background: Fallopian choriocarcinoma is extremely rare and is still treated with a combination of chemotherapy and surgery. We report a case of gestational fallopian tubal choriocarcinoma treated solely with surgery and describe its clini…

BACKGROUND: As an inevitable event after kidney transplantation, ischemia‒reperfusion injury (IRI) can lead to a decrease in kidney transplant success. The search for signature genes of renal ischemia‒reperfusion injury (RIRI) is helpful in…

Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is an important epigenetic regulator, and is associated with the malignant progression of lung cancer. However, the mechanisms of EZH2 on lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain unclear. The relationship between…

BACKGROUND: Worldwide, frozen embryo transfer (FET) has become a new strategy for the treatment of infertility. The success of FET is closely related to endometrial receptivity. Does uterine artery Doppler during the implantation window pre…

BACKGROUND: In an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, the embryo ends its wandering time and begins the process of implantation into the uterine cavity on the seventh day after oocyte pick-up (OPU + 7), which is closer than OPU + 5 to the t…

BACKGROUND: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is one of the deadliest gynecologic cancers. The etiology of EOC has still not been elucidated thoroughly. Tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein 8-like2 (TNFAIP8L2, TIPE2), an important regulato…

Endometriosis, defined as the presence of endometrial tissues outside the uterus, affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is considered the most effective technique to treat infertility…

PURPOSE: Human follicular fluid (FF) is a complex biological fluid that contributes to the micro-environment of oocyte development. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of steroid and gonadotropic hormones levels and mitochondrial…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether cystectomy or ablation for endometrioma has less impact on ovarian reserve as evaluated by antral follicle count (AFC) and antimüllerian hormone (AMH) levels. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. …

BACKGROUND: Ovarian steroid cell tumors (SCTs), not otherwise specified (NOS), are rare, with few large studies. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical features, prognosis, and treatment choices for these patients of differen…

BACKGROUND: The gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) has been used in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles for a long time. This paper evaluates the efficacy and safety of two commonly used pr…

AIMS: Most therapeutic drugs of endometriosis have been contraceptives but symptoms recur in up to 75% of cases, which makes it a presses need to try to find novel and safer therapeutic drugs. Imperatorin is a furanocoumarin existing in man…

Dysregulated extravillous trophoblast invasion and proliferation are known to increase the risk of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA); however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Herein, in our retrospective observational case-cont…

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) remains the world's deadliest infectious killer. Serum CA-125 test are useful in the diagnosis of PTB. Although studies on the relation between CA-125 and PTB have been reported, the specificity and …

PURPOSE: This study assessed the predictive value of the preoperative systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in endometrial cancer (EC) patients. METHODS: We retrospectively included 392 EC patients betwee…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of comprehensive nursing intervention (CNI) on the negative emotions of patients with infertility. METHODS: A total of 132 patients were recruited as the study cohort and randomly divided into an obser…

Genes encoding subunits of SWItch/Sucrose Non-Fermenting (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complexes are collectively mutated in 20% of all human cancers, among which the AT-rich interacting domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A, also known as …

Accumulating evidence has suggests that women with advanced endometriosis exhibit alterations in the expression of genes in the endometrium compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, replication stress is a characteristic feature of cancer …

BACKGROUND: Primary fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC) is a malignant tumor of the female genital tract that mostly presents intraperitoneal dissemination in clinical practice. The incidence of upper anterior mediastinal metastasis in PFTCs is…
