PURPOSE: This study aims to assess the impact of ultrasound parameters on endometrial receptivity in patients undergoing IVF-ET and to establish a predictive model for ongoing pregnancy outcomes. METHODS: The prospective cohort study inclu…

BACKGROUND: The dairy cow is an integral part of the global agricultural economy and plays a vital role in human nutrition. Compromised health in dairy cows leads to substantial economic losses and adverse environmental impacts. Understandi…

Accumulated evidence has shown that the antioxidant diet exhibits protective effects on women's reproductive health. The Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) serves as a crucial indicator for assessing antioxidant-rich diets. However,…

Excessive androgens may lead to abnormal folliculogenesis and anovulation. To explore the link between hyperandrogenism (HA) and anovulation - related infertility, we performed a two - sample Mendelian randomization analysis, followed by mu…

RESEARCH QUESTION: How does tubal endometriosis (TEM) impact the morphology and ultrastructure of tubal epithelium, and what are the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of TEM? DESIGN: Epithelial samples of fallopian tube were collect…

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), a chronic infection of the female upper genital tract, is a leading cause of morbidity in reproductive-aged women, often resulting in chronic pelvic pain, tubal infertility, and ectopic…

The lack of accurate understanding of cellular physiology and pathophysiology during the WOI constitutes the major obstacle to correct diagnosis and treatment for patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The role of cilia as one …

BACKGROUND: Existing biomarkers for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have demonstrated limited sensitivity and specificity. This study aimed to investigate plasma protein and metabolite characteristics of EOC and identify novel biomarker can…

Serous papillary adenofibroma (SPAF) is a rare benign tumor in gynecological practice. Most patients have no symptoms and occasionally present with pelvic masses during physical examinations. SPAF consists of both fibrous and epithelial par…

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Primary dysmenorrhea carries substantial medical, social, and economic burdens, leading many patients to seek low-risk complementary and alternative therapies, such as acupuncture. Myofascial trigger point dry need…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors (OSCSTs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of ovarian neoplasms, encompassing various subtypes such as ovarian thecoma, fibroma (including cellular fibroma), and ovarian granulosa cell tumors (OG…

DNA and RNA nucleotide sequences are ubiquitous in all biological cells, serving as both a comprehensive library of capabilities for the cells and as an impressive regulatory system to control cellular function. The multi-alignment framewor…

BACKGROUND: Acupuncture and moxibustion, as traditional therapies in Chinese medicine, are widely recognized for their therapeutic effects, particularly in pain relief. Nevertheless, the exact mechanisms underlying their analgesic effects r…

High-resolution three-dimensional (3D) tissue analysis has emerged as a transformative innovation in the life sciences, providing detailed insights into the spatial organization and molecular composition of biological tissues. This review b…

Background: Endometriosis results in dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain and infertility in reproductive-age women. However, no effective treatment methods have been applied to the disease, and the pathogenesis of endometriosis i…

BACKGROUND: Current therapeutic approaches for premature ovarian failure (POF) are often inadequate in clinical practice and some raise ethical concerns. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) have emerged as a preferred opt…

BACKGROUND: Classification attempts and treatment strategies for endometriosis have been predominantly biomedical. Symptom profiles observed in individuals with endometriosis are multidimensional and may be more effectively captured by a bi…

Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are ubiquitous in the environment and have been shown to interfere with the endocrine system, leading to adverse effects on reproductive health. In females, EDC exposure has been linked to menstrual irr…

AIM: To investigate the risk factors associated with postpartum urinary retention after cesarean section (CS) and to determine the associated morbidity rate. METHODS: This study was a population-based retrospective case-control study analy…

BACKGROUND: Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) can easily cause female infertility or recurrent abortion, but there is still no effective treatment to improve the pregnancy and live birth rates in patients with IUAs. In recent years, great advan…

To explore and validate active components in the Yijing Decoction formula that exert therapeutic effects on targets associated with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and to identify the underlying mechanisms of action. A rat model of PO…

BACKGROUND: Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LG-ESS) is a rare malignant tumor of the female reproductive system with atypical clinical symptoms and slow progression. CASE: A 44-year-old female with a history of intermittent severe d…

BACKGROUND: Triclosan, a widely used environmental contaminant with endocrine-disrupting properties, has been increasingly implicated in female reproductive disorders. However, the potential mechanistic link between triclosan exposure and e…

BACKGROUD: Ovarian aging can lead to early menopause, infertility, and even premature senility in female patients, seriously impairing the quality of life. Unfortunatly, it is still lack of effective protection strategies against ovarian ag…

Adenomyosis, a prevalent gynecologic disorder affecting women of reproductive age, is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue within the myometrium. The involvement and underlying mechanisms of ferroptosis in adenomyosis…
