BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis diagnosis and classification relies primarily on magnetic resonance imaging or pathological examination. Liquid biopsy has been widely applied in oncology but remains underexplored for adenomyosis. We aimed to identi…

ObjectiveTo develop a pre-percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) model combining conventional ultrasound (CUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for predicting non-perfused volume ratio (NPVR) ≥ 80% in patients with uterine fibroids.M…

ObjectivesGenerative artificial intelligence (generative AI) has been investigated for creating patient education materials (PEMs) to reduce the burden of clinical education and improve health information accessibility. However, prior studi…

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants with potential reproductive toxicity, yet their profiles in follicular fluid and impacts on human fertility remain unclear. Given the importance of diet as…

Endometriosis (EMS) is a highly heterogeneous chronic gynecological disease characterized by pain, infertility, and relapse, with its etiology and pathogenesis not yet fully elucidated. Traditional theories, including "retrograde menstruati…

BACKGROUND: Mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) represent common ovarian germ cell neoplasms; primary uterine teratomas are exceedingly uncommon. We report an extremely rare MCT arising within a cesarean-section scar at the anterior uterine isth…

Mechanical loading is a defining feature of pregnancy, yet its integration with ion-channel physiology in the myometrium remains incompletely synthesized. This Review examines how uterine stretch, overdistension, oxytocin-associated signali…

Endometriosis (EMs) features ectopic implantation of endometrial stromal cells (EESCs) and strong anoikis resistance, yet how inflammatory signals reprogram mitochondrial function remains unclear. Here, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)…

Early identification of malignant ovarian tumors is critical for informing treatment decisions and enhancing patients' quality of life. As the third most prevalent gynecologic cancer globally, ovarian cancer remains challenging to diagnose …

BackgroundNeuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) facilitate tracheal intubation and laparoscopic exposure, but residual neuromuscular blockade remains a perioperative concern. We evaluated whether reducing NMBA exposure during total laparosc…

PurposeInfants born after assisted reproductive technology (ART) have more adverse health outcomes than spontaneously conceived infants. Evidence on the impact of ART on the offspring's visual system, particularly refractive errors (REs), r…

Long non-coding RNA Urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) is a pivotal regulator in the progression of endometriosis (EMs), yet its mechanistic role remains elusive. This study identified UCA1 as a factor promoting glycolysis through bio…

PurposeTo explore the impact of seasonal variations on the risks of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in women who undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment.MethodsWe retrospectively incl…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease that is the leading cause of dysmenorrhea, infertility, and pelvic pain in women. A growing body of evidence has demonstrated that platelets may play an important role …

This retrospective cohort study evaluated whether gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) used for luteal support during antagonist cycles improved pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing fresh embryo transfer. We examined 3,115 p…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs), a common gynecological disorder, involves complex molecular mechanisms. Metabolic reprogramming (MR) has been recognized as a hallmark of EMs, contributing to lesion survival and immune microenvironment remo…

Atherosclerosis has an urgent need for new therapeutic targets. Protein kinases orchestrate multiple cellular events in atherosclerosis and may provide new therapeutic targets for atherosclerosis. Here, a protein kinase, WEE1 G2 checkpoint …

Infertility is an increasingly prevalent global health issue affecting millions of couples. It can arise from various factors, including hormonal imbalances, reproductive disorders, and anatomical abnormalities. While numerous treatment opt…

Ovarian cancer (OC), a common gynecological malignancy, seriously threatens the lives and health of women. Though several serological markers are used for the early diagnosis of OC, most have low specificity and sensitivity. Micro-RNAs (miR…

OBJECTIVE: This study explored the incidence of adverse events (AEs) following microwave ablation (MWA) under local anesthesia and analyzed factors related to benign uterine diseases, including uterine fibroids (UFs) and adenomyosis (AM). …

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 …

BACKGROUND: The incidence of pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC) is increasing yearly, and it is urgent to explore precise diagnostic biomarkers and molecular mechanisms. This study aims to investigate the diagnostic value of miR-340-5p in pe…

Adenomyosis is characterized by the infiltration of endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium which affects about 35% women at reproductive age. Women affected by adenomyosis always experience issues such as defective decidualizatio…

OBJECTIVE: In the present study, a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization approach was utilized to explore potential causal relationships between mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) and ovary-related reproductive disorders (O…

BackgroundUterine leiomyosarcoma(uLMS) is a rare malignant tumor with low clinical specificity and poor prognosis.There are many studies related to uLMS, however, there is still a lack of metrological analyses with generalization. This stud…
