N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal RNA modification and has emerged as an important regulator of reproductive biology. Dysregulation of m6A regulators has been implicated in pregnancy-related disorders, including recurre…

Endometriosis progression is driven by oxidative stress and excessive angiogenesis within an inflammatory microenvironment. To overcome these challenges, we designed ROS/pH dual-responsive Alpelisib-loaded nanoparticles (Alp@TAT-AT7-NPs) fu…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Embryo quality serves as a pivotal determinant in assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes, with high-grade embryos correlating with improved pregnancy/live birth rates but poor morphology elevating the risks of im…

BACKGROUND: Periodontitis has increasingly been recognized for its impact on systemic health. Mendelian Randomization (MR), an emerging causal inference method, effectively overcomes confounding biases in observational studies. To systemati…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by pain and impaired quality of life (QoL). While pharmacological and surgical options exist, their limitations necessitate complementary strategies. The comparativ…

BACKGROUND: The impact of changes in estradiol (E2) levels prior to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) on pregnancy and live birth outcomes remains poorly understood. OBJECTIV…

Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, a renowned medicinal herb, exerts many of its systemic effects through intricate interactions with the gut microbiota, a relationship that also addresses the challenge of its own limited oral bioavailability. This …

BACKGROUND: To evaluate whether progesterone-induced changes in endometrial thickness (EMT) affect singleton infant outcomes during frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed 6,331 singleton live…

BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) are major causes of pathological early pregnancy, yet their mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study aimed to identify shared molecular mediators and…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder affecting reproductive-aged women and is associated with an increased risk of early pregnancy loss (EPL). The underlying mechanisms remain multifactorial and poorly understood.…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with cancer-like features, yet the mechanisms linking metabolic dysregulation to immune remodeling during lesion progression remain poorly understood. Here, we identify the ubiquitin E3 ligase…

OBJECTIVE: To compare dietary preparation durations and evaluate optimal diet types before high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five hundred patients with uterine fibroids or adenomyosis undergoing HIF…

Ovarian endometrioma (OEM) remains a challenging manifestation of endometriosis, particularly in women with infertility, recurrent disease, or concern about ovarian reserve. Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy has emerged as a minimally invasiv…

DISIGN: This is a cross-sectional study. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with body image disturbances in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS: This study included married women diagn…

BACKGROUND: As the precursor malignancy of endometrial cancer (EC), about 50% of endometrial complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) will eventually progress to EC. Elucidating the underlying transformation mechanisms could aid in disease manage…

OBJECTIVE: To identify clinical characteristics and risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes after clinical pregnancy following laparoscopic tubal anastomosis (LTA). METHODS: Retrospective analysis of 253 patients undergoing LTA (May 20…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial hepatoid adenocarcinoma (HAC) is an exceedingly rare tumor. Histologically, the tumor is predominantly characterized by HAC with additional components, as documented in previous reports. The coexistence of endometria…

This study investigated differences in reproductive outcomes and vaginal microbiota profiles between two endometrial preparation protocols-letrozole (LE) combined with human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) and hormone replacement therapy (HRT…

BACKGROUND: Gastric adenomyoma (GA) in children is a relatively rare condition, and currently, there is limited knowledge regarding its optimal diagnostic methods and treatment strategies. To improve our understanding GA particularly in chi…

PURPOSE: To investigate the impact of first-trimester COVID-19 infection on the perinatal and obstetric outcomes following in vitro fertilization-frozen embryo transfer. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted at a university-affil…

PURPOSE: To investigate how two methods for managing early miscarriage after frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles impact live birth rates and other reproductive and perinatal outcomes in subsequent FET cycles without preimplantation genetic …

PURPOSE: Differentiating between benign and malignant ovarian masses remains a significant clinical challenge. Although the Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System Ultrasound Version 2022 (O-RADS US v2022) provides standardized terminolog…

BACKGROUND: To investigate the optimal periendometrial zone (PEZ) in ultrasound (US) images and assess the performance of ultrasound radiomics in predicting the outcome of frozen embryo transfer (FET). METHODS: This prospective study had 4…

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a newly discovered subset of immune cells that are responsible for regulation of the immune microenvironment. In particular, the ILC categories ILC2s and regulatory ILCs (ILCregs) are associated with immunos…
