BACKGROUND: Simnotrelvir is an oral 3-chymotrypsin-like protease inhibitor that has been found to have in vitro activity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and potential efficacy in a phase 1B trial. METHO…

BACKGROUND Tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) are implicated in the survival of ovarian cancer (OVCA) patients, but their prognostic significance in advanced or metastatic OVCA patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCAT) has …

STUDY QUESTION: Is SARS-CoV-2 infection in IVF-conceived early pregnancy associated with a higher risk of miscarriage? SUMMARY ANSWER: Infection with SARS-CoV-2 during early pregnancy in women conceiving by IVF may not be associated with a…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of β-cell dysfunction on IVF outcomes in women with PCOS. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study includes 1,212 women with PCOS undergoing their first IVF cycle between September 2010 and December 20…

Abstract Objective To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of the 4P management model (Professionalized management, Personalized care, Pluralistic strategies, and Participatory involvement) in the specialty management of endometriosis…

Abstract Objective This study aims to elucidate the spectrum of obstetrical complications in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility following complete laparoscopic excision of endometriosis lesions, and to assess the impact of…

To facilitate in vitro mechanistic studies in pelvic inflammatory disease and subsequent tubal factor infertility, we sought to establish patient tissue derived fallopian tube (FT) organoids and to study their inflammatory response to acute…

Iatrogenic nerve injury is a significant complication in surgery, which can negatively impact patients' quality of life. Currently, the main clinical neuroimaging methods, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and high-re…

BACKGROUND: Clinical value of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors in in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was investigated in this study. METHODS: A retrospective analy…

INTRODUCTION: Personal care products (PCPs) contain a number of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that could potentially affect the reproductive function in women of childbearing age. However, studies focused on the effects of PCPs use …

BACKGROUND: Reproductive tract infection is one of the important causes of intrauterine adhesions (IUA). The evaluation of vaginal microecology could provide significant guidance for the treatment of reproductive tract infection. This study…

BackgroundThis study aimed to construct predictive models for the risk of sepsis in patients with Acute pancreatitis (AP) using machine learning methods and compared optimal one with the logistic regression (LR) model and scoring systems.Me…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify the diagnostic value of models constructed using computed tomography-based radiomics features for discrimination of benign and early stage malignant ovarian tumors. METHODS: The imaging and clinicop…

BACKGROUND: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to play vital roles in the progression of diverse human cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of this study was to explore the exact role and underlying me…

Exposure to heavy metals exerts toxic effects on female reproduction and embryo development. This study examined the exposure of patients with unexplained recurrent miscarriage (uRM) to multiple metals and the correlations among exposures t…

STUDY QUESTION: Do extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human Fallopian tubes exert an influence on early embryo development in vitro? SUMMARY ANSWER: Human Fallopian tube EVs carrying miRNAs increase murine embryo viability in vitro. WHAT I…

Galectin-9 (Gal-9) is a vital member of the galectin family, functioning as a multi-subtype galactose lectin with diverse biological roles. Recent research has revealed that Gal-9's interaction with tumors is an independent factor that infl…

The fertility of females of childbearing age who are cured of cancer by chemotherapy is gradually declining globally. As a broad-spectrum chemotherapy drug in clinic, the damage of cisplatin (CDDP) to female reproductive function cannot be …

We recently read an article by Wang et al. in Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica.1 The authors reviewed the available literature to quantitatively assess the impact of adenomyosis diagnosed by ultrasound on the outcome of in vitr…

BACKGROUND: There is a higher risk of preterm delivery (PTD) in singleton live births conceived after in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) compared with spontaneously conceived pregnancies. The objective of o…

Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is the main driving force of mortality in prostate cancer patients. Among the parameters contributing to the progression of CRPC and treatment failure, elevation of the steroidogenic enzyme AKR1C3…
