Reproductive disorders are considered a global health problem influenced by physiological, genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. The increased exposure to bisphenols, a chemical used in large quantities for the production of polyca…
PURPOSE: To elucidate the characterization of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the follicular fluid-derived extracellular vesicles (FF-EVs) and discover critical molecules and signaling pathways associating with the etiology and pathobiology…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) for ultrasound is a lexicon and risk stratification system that includes all risk categories and relevant management recommendation. It has high sensitivity in diagnosing malign…
This study aims to analyze the outcomes and measurements of randomized controlled trial(RCT) for traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) treatment of endometriosis(EM) and provide a basis for the building of the core outcome set(COS) of EM. The R…
Granulosa cells (GCs) are important for supporting and nourishing oocytes during follicular development and maturation. Oxidative stress (OS) injury of GCs can lead to decreased responsiveness of follicles to follicular stimulating hormone …
BACKGROUND: Unilateral twin ectopic pregnancy is extremely rare in natural pregnancy, with an incidence rate of only 1 in 200,000-2,500,000, represents a major health risk for reproductive-aged women, leading to even life-threatening compli…
Curcumin is a natural compound with a diketone structure, which can control the growth, metastasis, recurrence, neovascularization, invasion, and drug resistance of gastrointestinal tumors by inhibiting nuclear factor κB, overexpression of …
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the risk factors of patients with endometriosis (EMS) and ureteral stricture and to establish a prediction model based on logistic-regression analysis. METHODS: The clinical data of 228 EMS patients i…
Cryptotanshinone (CT), an active component of the traditional Chinese medicine Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, exhibits a wide range of biological and pharmacological activities. Although the anticancer activity of CT is well known, the knowledg…
Macrophages are a type of immune cells with high levels of plasticity and heterogeneity. They can polarize into M1 or M2 functional phenotypes. These two phenotypes exhibit a dynamic balance during polarization-related diseases and play opp…
BACKGROUND: Worldwide, frozen embryo transfer (FET) has become a new strategy for the treatment of infertility. The success of FET is closely related to endometrial receptivity. Does uterine artery Doppler during the implantation window pre…
BACKGROUND: The basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)/luteinizing hormone (LH) ratio is a useful predictor of ovarian response. In this study, we investigated whether the FSH/LH ratios during the entire controlled ovarian stimulation (CO…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological illness in women of reproductive age that significantly decreases life quality and fertility. Paeonol has been shown to play an important part in endometriosis treatments. Understanding the mechanism …
Abstract Background Endometriosis development is associated with peritoneal immune microenvironment abnormality. However, the specific mechanism is uncertain. Investigating peritoneal immune microenvironment regulation mechanisms could intr…
BACKGROUND: Uterine torsion is a rare obstetric event that can occur during pregnancy and is difficult to diagnose. Its occurrence may lead to serious adverse pregnancy outcomes. CASE INTRODUCTION: The patient was a 33-year-old woman at 30…
Angiogenesis, the formation of new capillaries from pre-existing vascular networks, plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. The use of pro-angiogenic agents has been proposed as an attractive approach for p…
BACKGROUND: Physicians need an appropriate embryo transfer strategy to address the challenge of reducing multiple birth rates, while maintaining the couples' live birth rate during assisted reproductive technology. METHODS: We included 10,…
BACKGROUND: This study explored the key genes related to immune cell infiltration in endometriosis. RESULTS: The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets (GSE7305, GSE7307, and GSE11691), containing a total of 37 endometriosis and 42 normal …
AIM: The aim of the present study was to summarize the clinical characteristics and analyze the independent prognostic factors in patients with high-grade endometrial neuroendocrine carcinoma (ENC). METHODS: Patients diagnosed with ENC, en…
Endometriosis (EMS) is a challenging gynecological disorder prevalent in reproductive-aged women, and Th1/Th2 cytokines are implicated in EMS progression. This study probed the serum levels and clinical values of Th1/Th2 cytokines in EMS pa…
