Chronic pain imposes incalculable health and economic burdens, affecting more than 30% of the global population in published studies. Optimal management of chronic pain is imperative for individuals experiencing such distress. Nevertheless,…

Endometriosis (EMS), a chronic inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10 % reproductive aged women, remains etiologically unclear. This study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of frizzled class receptor 7 (FZD7) i…

BackgroundDifferent endometrial preparation protocols are used prior to frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET). Optimization of endometrial preparation protocols is mandatory to improve live birth rate and obstetric and perinatal outcomes. In …

Progressive dysmenorrhea and extensive fibrosis within the myometrium are hallmark features of adenomyosis (AM). Approximately 80% of patients with AM experience secondary dysmenorrhea, which occurs more frequently in AM than in other gynec…

The Body Roundness Index (BRI) is an innovative anthropometric measure reflecting body shape and obesity, increasingly recognized as a potential predictor of infertility, warranting further exploration. This research employed a cross-sectio…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the effect of ovarian endometriosis (OE) on ovarian reserve, as well as on cumulative clinical pregnancy rates (cCPR) and cumulative live birth rates (cLBR) in groups of younger women (those under…

Endometrial cysts of the ovary (EMC) may develop into endometriosis (EM)‑associated ovarian cancer over time (EAOC), but the pathogenesis of this disease has not been determined. In the present study, RNA sequencing was used to identify a f…

BACKGROUND: Alarelin acetate, a synthetic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue, is widely used to manage endometriosis and hormone-sensitive malignancies. Although its safety profile is generally favorable, we report the first doc…

Objective To identify novel and noninvasive biomarkers for the diagnosis of adenomyosis and to provide potential therapeutic targets. Design We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from 110 women of reproductive age who underwent pe…

OBJECTIVE: Although immune dysregulation is implicated in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EMs), the specific role of prostate transmembrane protein androgen induced 1 (PMEPA1) in modulating the function of regulatory T cells (Tregs) rema…

Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common gynecologic malignancy that often exhibits molecular features such as extensive somatic copy number alterations, microsatellite instability and frequent TP53 mutations, which considerably affect the physi…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to establish a risk prediction model of endometriosis in infertile women and verify the model. METHODS: A retrospective study was made of 140 infertile women hospitalized at Henan Provincial People's Hospital betw…

As an emerging endocrine-disrupting agent and structural analog of bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol B (BPB) raises significant concerns due to its potential to induce male reproductive toxicity. Despite its presence in maternal bodily fluids, t…

BackgroundPoor ovarian response (POR) is a challenging condition in assisted reproduction technology. Oral contraceptives (OCs) are commonly used to suppress gonadotropin hormone release in POR patients to synchronize the development of ant…

ObjectivesTo estimate the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) and its subtypes among nulliparous Chinese women with associated risk factors. The prevalence of UI among those living in urban or rural communities was also analysed with po…

BackgroundMany components in follicular fluid (FF), such as peptide hormones, cytokines, and steroids, undergo dynamic changes during folliculogenesis and have important roles in follicular development. Because systemic inflammation has als…

We present the case of a 39-year-old Chinese woman who presented with a palpable mass in her abdominal wall and pelvic cavity 9 years after undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy. Six abdominal wall fibroids, 18 intramural fibroids, 1 posterior…

Female health and the microbiota of the reproductive tract are closely associated. The research scope on reproductive tract microbiota extends from the vaginal to the upper reproductive tract and from infectious diseases to various benign a…

This study aimed to identify risk and protective factors for postoperative recurrence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). We analyzed 320 patients undergoing laparoscopic excision with ≥ 6 years follow-up at the First Affiliated Hospi…

BackgroundUreteral reimplantation plays a crucial role in distal ureteral reconstruction, and the integration of robotic systems has greatly enhanced minimally invasive surgical techniques. This pilot study aims to evaluate the technically …

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Endometriosis is a gynecological disorder characterized by chronic pelvic pain and infertility in women. The traditional herbal medicine Sanleng Wan (SLW) is composed of Curcuma phaeocaulis Valeton (Chinese n…

BackgroundIntramural pregnancy (IMP) is a subtype of ectopic pregnancy that can lead to life-threatening uterine rupture and severe hemorrhage. However, the clinical manifestations of IMP are nonspecific, making early clinical recognition c…

BackgroundIn hormone replacement therapy-frozen-thawed embryo transfer (HRT-FET) cycles, endogenous LH levels may still rise, and the relationship between this and pregnancy outcomes is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate …

Endometriosis is a chronic condition with limited therapeutic options. The molecular aberrations promoting ectopic attachment and interactions with the local microenvironment sustaining lesion growth have been unclear, prohibiting developme…

Intrauterine adhesions (IUA), characterized by endometrial fibrosis, pose a serious threat to women's reproductive health, yet their molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we use single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to profi…
