BACKGROUND: Women with advanced maternal age (AMA) face a significant decline in embryo euploidy rates, leading to reduced fertility and increased risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes. While preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PG…

Meta-analysis is a widely used method for synthesizing results from multiple studies across diverse fields. A central challenge in meta-analysis is assessing between-study inconsistency, which can arise from differences in study populations…

Abstract Background Endometriosis is a systemic gynecological disorder that affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and shares certain pathophysiological features with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite this, the connecti…

The reprogrammed osteogenic phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is considered a critical mechanism of vascular calcification (VC) in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Currently, the RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is dec…

The Ping-Chong-Jiang-Ni Formula (PCJNF), a compound of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), has demonstrated remarkable clinical effectiveness and is widely utilized in the treatment of endometriosis (EMs). Previous studies have shown that P…

SuoquanYishen formula (SQYSF), a traditional Chinese herbal prescription for treating diabetic kidney disease (DKD), has demonstrated clinical efficacy in lowering blood glucose and alleviating renal damage. Emerging evidence implicates cel…

Exosomes have the ability to transport RNA/miRNAs and possess immune modulatory functions. Heat stress, a significant limiting factor in the poultry industry, can induce oxidative stress and suppress the immune responses of laying hens. In …

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that supplementation with recombinant human GH (rh-GH) during ovarian stimulation (OS) may improve the ovarian response and clinical outcomes of IVF. However, it remains unclear whether GH is associated with t…

Abstract Background Endometriosis is still a difficult problem for women.The Nuclear Ubiquitous Casein and cyclin-dependent Kinase Substrate 1(NUCKS1)gene is located on human chromosome 1q32.1. It encodes the NUCKS1 protein, a 27 kDa nuclea…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is still a difficult problem for women. The Nuclear Ubiquitous Casein and cyclin-dependent Kinase Substrate 1 (NUCKS1) gene is located on human chromosome 1q32.1. It encodes the NUCKS1 protein, a 27 kDa nuclear DNA…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of gynecological cancer related death in females worldwide. Our previous study demonstrated that decreased expression of microRNA (miR-126) promoted ovarian cancer angiogenesis and invasion by…
